What can we learn from Game Design?

Microsoft Office Labs hosted a few weeks ago the Seattle’s Interaction Design Association meeting and they were talking about the concepts of games and how they can be used for interaction design for ordinary applications or websites.

The videos of the presentations are available here.

The Interaction Design Association is a member-supported organization committed to serving the needs of the international interaction design community.
The forum and mailing lists are really interesting.

They are also hosting the IxDA Interaction conferences.The videos of the Interaction 08 are available on the web and I already downloaded 10 of them (internally available).

Have fun,
Claudia
