No stone is left unturned in your blog and its topic. It does a great job of enhancing gaming beyond the stereotypes it has and continues to be associated with. I like how you weave it into the larger public debates, in particular with gun control, first amendment rights and your post on human rights concerns about a proposed bill in Afghanistan. You open up a world of gaming that isn’t shown in a lot of mainstream media. I was not aware of the extent to which the politics of gaming is covered on a regular basis. I think it would be beneficial to your blog and its debate if you provided more balance to those who might have a legitimate argument on the negative impacts of gaming. There are some posts where you give short introductions to a person and their disagreement but quickly dismiss them as being anti-gaming. I would be curious to see you, as a gamer, hold the mirror to the industry and explore a little self-critiquing. It doesn’t have to be criticisms on content alone. It can be business, lobbying or its assimilation into mainstream media.
Come here to find out about how video games are playing a role in our society, and become enlightened regarding all the goings-on in the industry! Take a second to peek around and check out some of my previous posts. Comments are ALWAYS welcome!

Like your blog. As a non-gamer, I find it interesting and some of the issues you bring up relevant to society at large, which is good.
glad to see you’re still blogging!
