Jim Dunnigan’s Serious Games Keynote (Serious Games)
Jim Dunnigan is a talented speaker who rushed through a entertaining narrative of his own long involvement in serious games. I’ll blog more extensive notes later, but two things that struck me were his reference to geeks as people who can make fortunes for other people, and his mention of an urban legend involving Eliza (namely, that the developers’ secretary was fooled by the program into thinking that she was talking to a real therapist).
