Water Cooler Games
Water Cooler Games served as the web's primary forum for "videogames with an agenda" — coverage of the uses of video games in advertising, politics, education, and other everyday activities, outside the sphere of entertainment.
The site was maintained at watercoolergames.org from 2003-2009, where it was edited by myself and Gonzalo Frasca. It is now archived here in full.

Audio games for blind players

Health & Medicine Games
The BBC ran a story this weekend on the expanding range of audio games for blind gamers. The article reports that there are at least 50 commercially available titles and at least twice that many shareware and freeware games for blind players, cataloged on AudioGames.Net. These games are more about accessibility than health and medicine, but it's certainly an appealing trend: making more games geared specifically for the blind. Some of the games seem innovative in their own right, no matter the intended player.
