Hi,

This CfP of Electronic Commerce Research on metaverses may be of interest.

I HAVE AN AVATAR THEREFORE I EXIST: OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES IN
METAVERSES
Millions of users from around the globe participate in massive multiplayer
online role playing games (MMORPG), such as Second Life and World of
Warcraft, 3D worlds that are often considered the next generation Web. With
their user base growing at an exponential rate we are already experiencing
the development of a phenomenon that may be as significant as the Web
itself. The rapid development of MMORPGs and metaverses is likely to bring
about significant business as well as social, legal, policy, methodological
and technological opportunities and challenges. This special issue aims to
explore these and contribute to this rapidly expanding field by focusing on
issues relevant to electronic business and management.
