Jane McGonigal: Gaming can make a better world.
Yesterday I was poking around on GameTyrant and, I came across something I saw 2 years ago and can’t believe I forgot about it.
In 2010, Game Developer, Jane McGonigal delivered a ground breaking TED Talk about how we can use gaming to change the world.
That’s right.
Everyone who says we’re wasting our time gaming can suck it because when the world goes tits up, it’s gonna be our hard wired critical thinking and problem solving skillz that will be saving the shit out of you.
Take a moment and watch Jane’s Epic Win: “Gaming can make a better world.”

J3SS Ahoy hoy! You’ve never heard of me. That’s OK. I’ve never heard of you either. I'm an escapist and kind of anti-social. Solitude, video games, reading and writing is how I spend most days. I know what you're thinking, "this chick is about as interesting as Virtual Sea Monkeys." Like I said, I'm an escapist, you should see the shit going on inside my head. ;)
