One Laptop Per Child game jam
Oh mai gad. This is ++good!
Non-profit group One Laptop Per Child has announced that it has organized a three day game jam from June 8-10 that will see hundreds of developers, educators, and artists collaborate to create open source educational games for its XO laptop currently being deployed in countries like Uruguay.
I don't know about you, but this sort of thing makes me sick with happiness.
I'm going to be in London until June 9th, so attending is out. Gutted.
