Hey all,<br><br>Just thought I'd post this:<br><a href="http://www.ted.com/talks/gabe_zichermann_how_games_make_kids_smarter.html">http://www.ted.com/talks/gabe_zichermann_how_games_make_kids_smarter.html</a><br><br>A few buzz words in there (I know they make some people nauseous) but great content. <br>
Saw this guy talk while in San Fran actually, and the notes I posted in the Star Hammer thread from the Virtual Good Summit had a section from Gabe's presentation.<br><br>This gamification stuff is one of the big focuses in SF. Very big business in the educational/corporate/personal product space, although a lot of it isn't about the types of games we typically think of, more embedding game mechanics in life. <br>
