I don't believe this posted the first time I mailed it. Sorry if it's a double post! Alejandro, I'm actually working on this topic for my dissertation work. There are A LOT of examples out there. The blog Terra Nova has covered many of them and has some interesting insights into the area (http://terranova.blogs.com/terra_nova/2005/02/the_right_to_as.html). I would browse through their back posts as well. Additionally, Bruce Robinson has done quite a bit of work on this topic as well. I know he has a book chapter: Title Labour's Second Life : from a Virtual Strike on Union Island Book Virtual Social Networks: Mediated, Massive and Multiplayer sites' Ed: Niki Panteli (Palgrave)- http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/reader/023022928X/ref=sib_dp_pt#reader-page If you would like to contact me off the list I'll be happy to pass along some of my publications on the topic as well as additional information I may have.

I was invited to participate in a conference for games developers and multimedia artist, and I´m thinking to talk about user´s rebellions in online games and virtual worlds. Reading the Celia Pearce´s book "Communities of play" (excellent reading) I found a mention of a WoW rebellion, in 2004. Can you suggest me some other readings about this kind of grass-root protest movements? Also any pictures?
