Gaming Post for February

Okay, a colleague sent me a couple of links to items of her blog that may be of interest...

I wrote another gaming post and wanted to share with you the link: http://elgg.net/mechelledc/weblog/154591.html

Second Life has gone mobile. I linked with the articles in a brief blurb on my blog: http://elgg.net/mechelledc/weblog/155196.html

And then the regular links:

Note that I've been including Second Life in these, as I see it right now as a really big, social networking simulation - or at least that's my logic at present.

Until I get the interest, energy or accumulation to do this again...
