The recent International Casinos Exhibition (ICE) has provoked much food for thought regards the future of bingo online. Though I did not have the time to attend myself, reports from the event suggest free online bingo players and operators can expect a few interesting new products to come our way this year.

Highlighting the impact of online bingo at ICE, Boss Media and Parlay Entertainment have both indicated they are bullish about all things bingo and online (see today’s Bingo Street news for details). Both companies have invested extensively in the online bingo games sector and both expect the market to boom in the coming years.

Another feature of the latest ICE is the extent to which most online games operators are expressing optimism for the coming year at a time when the world economy seems to stumble from one crisis to another. Given that 2007 was one of the toughest years faced by the fledgling online games industry thanks to concerted anti-online gaming legislation in the US, it just goes to show you can’t keep a good industry down.

Online bingo halls have played a valiant part in the overall online gaming industry’s rebound from near disaster following the loss of the US market and events and displays at ICE seem to be proof the industry is in fine shape going into 2008.
