And now a little bonus.  Jane McGonigal has written a book called “Reality is Broken: Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World.”  I haven’t yet read the book myself, but she seems to be writing along the same lines of what we’re talking about here in this blog!  You can see her on the Colbert Report here, talking about her book, and she totally gets it.  Listen for the money lines about realizing your capability of becoming like your avatar in a game.  You can buy her book on Amazon.com here, I know I plan on doing so when next paycheck comes =)

Alrighty folks, that’s it for today, see you on Monday!
