Have a little fun, bring a little peace
If you've ever wanted to improve your understanding of conflict in
the Middle East (or anywhere, really), there's a cool reality-based
game called
PeaceMaker
that you should try. They've got some interesting videos on
YouTube. Even
though it's a Java game, it's only available for Windows and OS X -
they use QuickTime for Java. (we're trying to get our
cross-platform media story together, but it's tough... [codecs are
easy, we've got piles of them: it's all about patent royalties on
free software :-( ])
