Gaming for the People September 7, 2005 - by Gonzalo Frasca Think of DR as the Danish version of the BBC. The fact is that DR, along with Diginet and the IT University of Copenhagen (home of the Center for Computer Game Research) are hosting an event on Friday 23rd. The event is called Gaming for the People and wants to explore the possibilities of games and videogames for public service. I am very happy of being part of this event and I hope it can help to spread some good ideas on games and their impact on real life. Comment from Anandha Sudhan on May 17, 2006
