Many of you know that I am the online community manager for the Stereoscopic 3d Media and Technology group on LinkedIn. By the way, we renamed the special interest group in order to keep up with the 3D VR movement. It is now the LinkedIn Stereoscopic 3d and VR Media and Technology group.

I’ve
noticed an interesting development over the last four or five months, a definite wave. We’ve
seen a sudden surge of 3D, VR, and production professionals joining our ranks
at the clip of a dozen a week, after a two-year lull. Lots of new faces. New
companies. New VR content divisions. It makes you wonder. Why are folks are
starting to creep in after such a long absence? A spate of new startups?

is up, not sure what. Take a look. Join us!
