[casual_games] SIG Call: Quarterly Webinars - Need your input

[Dave Rohrl]

I'd love to get some analyst insight on the changing nature of our
business.  We all know that virtual items, subscriptions, and advertising
are a lot more important than they were a couple of years ago, but it would
be great to get some lively discussion on how the mix will change over the
next couple of years (and why).
