GuildCafe Entertainment, developer of the GuildCafe.com social gaming platform, has announced that it has acquired the Uberguilds game community network. GuildCafe will now use the Uberguilds Network to build its Alliance Program, which will enable independent websites to integrate with GuildCafe's social gaming platform. Uberguilds founder and CEO John Findlay will become the new program's general manager.

The program provides hosting for guild sites and online gaming communities, essentially allowing user-generated content relating to online worlds to be part of the same network. It's aimed both at fostering a broader community and promoting gaming while opposing activities like unendorsed gold-selling.

GuildCafe CEO Jon Radoff said, "We began working with Uberguilds earlier this year and became impressed with the enthusiasm of their community. The feedback from their players has been invaluable in improving our social gaming platform—and their participation will help us make our player recruiting, matchmaking and strategy-sharing applications the standard for the gaming world."
