One Tringo to Rule Us

It isn’t just about fashion anymore. Two months ago, over his Christmas vacation, Kermitt Quirk created the game Tringo within Second Life. It has become a huge hit and has earned him over L$1,000,000. But that was apparently just the beginning. The Wall Street Journal (alas, no easy linking) reported today that Kermitt has sold the real world publishing rights of Tringo to Sean Ryan’s Donnerwood Media for “low five figures.” They plan to publish Tringo for mobile phones and on the web.
