Gamification

Gamification is a concept I was introduced to in one of Jemimahs posts to Barrys blog.
It is something I have long been aware of as the way forward but did not know it had a formal name

It is based on work as fun. :D
I like it already.
Google does it.
Puppy is fun but maybe we can be more so?

These guys get it

Despite warnings from my imaginary ‘psychiatrist in a cupboard’,
I turned many of our Puppy developers into Yinyana boddhisattvas
(sort of Buddhist cyber saints) As some of our developers are Christian,
I stopped doing this as it might conflict with their preferences . . . I thought it was fun. :oops:

We had at least one set of awards around version 1 or 2 of Puppy . . .
What ideas are you willing to implement? 8)

Tree-hugging as a way of clearing your mind...?

As as bonus, it's good for the environment, too :wink:

Or, a random act of kindness....

Just smiling is a start..
