Last year we were in Chicago! The event was packed with fantastic speakers, food, art, and architecture. I was thrilled to catch Jane McGonigal, Game Designer and Future Forecaster, who presented on the application of game-design to real world issues. Check out her TED talk on harnessing game power. Fascinating!
