We would like share with you the latest progress the dev team has made on the Digital Age DLC.

You can see the different types of Internet Companies and their revenue models from http://www.capitalismlab.com/types-of-i ... anies.html

Lots of cool looking things you have going on! You guys are nailing this.

Two questions as I was perusing the DLC info site:

1) With the talent system, can you woo talent away from another company?
2) For the OS that your software is built for, will cloud be an option?

Looks like its coming along really quite well David.

Just a question on the stock trading company, will Unique visitors for this go up and down depending on market conditions (ie when the economy is booming will their be more people trading and vice versa when in crisis lots of people wont be as theyll all be in the red profit wise )

I guess Im trying to say will macro-economic events effect these things ?

Yes, you will be able to do so.

For gameplay and usability reasons, we figured that it is best not to make the interface and options for software too complicated. So we keep the simulation of software to cover only traditional types of software in the game.

This is a good idea. I will forward it to the dev team for their consideration.
