Study Finds Virtual Worlds Offer Good Real-World Lessons for Kids {Switched.com}
May 27th 2008 3:22AM Don't beat yourself up about it. Any game is going to allow your kid to see the consequence of different choices, .. and if you raise him correctly, then he'll be able to judge these consequences of their own accord. Even in shooting games, the choices you make, good or bad, reflect on the game-play. If your kid is playing Call of Duty online, the best plan is to work as a team, develop a strategy, and problem solve, .. even if the conclusion is the enemy getting shot. Just because a game is violent, it doesn't necessarily show a "bad" image. This is just where parenting steps in, letting him know virtual violence is different than real violence. But just by playing those games, they'll increase their capacity to solve real life problems, intelligently.

May 27th 2008 3:09AM Well, I think the kid would be more heartbroken if she didn't accept the check. This kid obviously believes in Hillary's campaign and wanted to support her any way he could.

Guide to Concert Etiquette: Rule 8 {Spinner}
Jun 16th 2007 10:41PM You guys are acting like the rule says, "When at a concert, don't interact with your boyfriend/girlfriend." First off, is making out all you can do to show you're together? Secondly, .. these rules are for etiquette.

Should we consider the PSP dead? {Joystiq}
Aug 2nd 2006 12:38AM I find it funny that the only way people support a gaming system is by saying it can do other things than gaming.
PSP is a portable gaming system. If it fails at gaming, then it fails. Don't care if you can listen to the "newest beats" or download "sweet videos". It's failed as a gaming system.
That is unless it kicks in soon, and show's us some gaming the likes of which we've never seen.
