This post doesn't have a link, but an interesting observation. This Thanksgiving break I had dinner with family and friends and was fascinated to watch how one of the social hubs of the day was around the computer playing games. Throughout the day, everyone played some sort of game. The most amazing, however, was watching a friends daughter, who is 11, type over 45 words a minute on a typing game. I remember having learn to do that by taking a high school class on keyboarding. She learned it by playing a game.
