Outside the last two posts, you can find some of my more passive gaming thoughts over on Passively Multiplayer. Here’s a taste of what I’ve been thinking about:
On Askville and Questville:
Askville is a friend question-and-answer website, that fits in with the idea of a ‘playful web’ that many people are keen to see developed. Questville, in whatever form it takes, has the potential to make a question-and-answer website that much more successful.

On Browser-based Gaming:
Look at user behaviour, we don’t want perfect, we want adequate. Look at how the web is growing, thriving on plain text in the face of java applets, flash intro’s and animated gifs. It’s all about survival of the easiest. Games in-browser, then, is the simple web.
