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.

Personal Democracy Forum

by Ian Bogost May 19, 2007

categories: General

I'm at the Personal Democracy Forum Conference, ~~perhaps~~ almost the only speaker here talking about videogames, which should be interesting. Update (5/19): Games for Change director Suzanne Seggerman also presented on that organization's activities in the idea market.

I'll admit that I'm too lazy this week to blog, but Jill Walker, sitting next to me, is liveblogging quite effectively. More at the PDF blog itself, and via Technorati.
