Wednesday Words: AMA

You may have seen posts across social media about AMA's on reddit held by relatively well known individuals (such as Bill Gates, Levar Burton, etc.), but may not know what AMA or Reddit is.  If you're curious as to the definition of Reddit, you can find it here.

Reddit is known for hosting AMAs.  AMAs are a segment where famous individuals are live on Reddit and invite its users to "Ask Me Anything. They then spend a couple hours answering questions  and commenting.

AMAs have been used just for fun, other times they've been used to answer serious, legit questions about upcoming video games, the state of a company, etc.  John Smedly's AMA is a good example where he answered questions not only about Sony Online Entertainment, but about both retired and upcoming games.

Anyone that is a relatively known individual can set up an AMA in the appropriate channels through Reddit.  If you are interested in doing it to add coverage to your game, book, business whatever, you should look into it more.
