I used to be an avid VMK (Virtual Magic Kingdom) player back in the day. For those who don't know, VMK was an MMORPG in which you literally explored the Magic Kingdom in a cartoony way with your own "rooms" based on park attractions where you could make hang outs, or games, or even quests. Its been a few years since Disney shut it down, causing a backlash of sadness, anger, and hopelessness throughout many fans.
I wasn't one of those people, but I did get a little nostalgic today and searched for any news of VMK that might have spawned since its closing. In doing so I came upon a blog article outlining a slew of similar domain registering Disney did a few months back. They all had the same similar structure with domain names such as:
"disneyimaginationworld", "disneyimaginationgame", "disneyimaginationonline", and "imaginationonlinegame".
Also mentioned was around nine international domains of the same sort. So it could be that coming up in the next few years is a new Disney MMO, maybe a viable replacement for VMK? (Or even a decent MMO that can center on Disney parks again, instead of over-saturated franchises...) I don't know about anyone else, but just the name "Disney Imagination Online" sounds pretty cool to me. I'll keep my eyes out for new information about it too.
Here's the article I found for those interested; and for old VMK players, keep an eye out, this could be good! http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-imagination-online-mmo-17035/
