I'm at the Games for Change conference in New York.  The conference brings together people from nonprofits and the private sector to discuss the future of serious or educational games.

Most of the discussion boil down to how twitter or social networking are changing "the digital landscape" but there have been some interesting talks about how best to have more user interaction with games. 

I was put behind bars yesterday my friends, and I can tell you that even for those few minutes while photographers snapped, it didn't feel very pleasant. I sat in my 'cell' with youth delegates and Socialist International President and former foreign minister of Greece, George Papandreou. In our hands, placards depicting the images of our friends, imprisoned civil society activists from around the world. As I mentioned yesterday in my column, this was part of a wider campaign to remind the Assembly and the wider world of the plight faced by our colleagues and calling for their immediate release.
