Thousands of gamers — and those who like to watch them — took over the downtown San Jose McEnery Convention Center on Friday for the start of a three-day convention devoted to videogame streaming.
The main user conference of Amazon.com-owned Twitch, TwitchCon 2018 showcases the growing community behind streaming. About 25,000 people are expected to descend on San Jose for the event, the city's tourism bureau said, adding "hotels, restaurants and attractions will greatly benefit from TwitchCon."
