11 days before Christmas….
Nice article from PC world (Thanks jeff for the link)
Go take a peek and see if it is true or not.
Does Gaming at Work Improve Productivity?
I have to agree on these parts of the article.
“Things are slowly changing, however. A number of companies have found that using video games as a way to reward employees for reaching their goals or increasing their productivity can improve office productivity and morale. During the current economic downturn, rewards for overworked employees can be especially welcome.”
And this one
Burbage firmly believes that gaming helps the staff. The most obvious reason: “People need a break. Studies show that if you just sit at your desk all day, productivity goes down and down.” He says that gaming also teaches how to think strategically, several moves ahead, and of course it helps with team building, “And hey, it’s fun,” adds Burbage. “After I go play Halo, I come back and I’m happy and in a good mood.”
Hope the “you-know” people consider this article. This is what we have in mind a long time ago before these events happened.











Yeah, I agree with most of the article. I believe this actually started with the Web 2.0 startup industries with a gazillion other perks.
