In a refreshingly philanthropic move (especially historically when
intellectual property has been involved) Will Wright has donated the
original SimCity for the One Laptop Per Child project in the hope that
it will inspire a generation of OOTB (out of the box) thinkers. This
idea was born from the 'SimCity.edu'
project by Don Hopkins, essentially making SimCity into a multiplayer
game to help teach Civil and Environmental Engineering running on
Linux/X11.
Also, while you are browsing, an old friend of mine told me about 'The
Nites', an unsigned band that have some great music on their
Myspace. I highly recommend listening!
... and to my regular visitors I promise, the next post will be original
content rather than hotlinking. I humbly submit myself for your
forgiveness.
