Games and Culture: Whyville Special Issue

In case you haven't heard, our special issue in Games and Culture is out as of January 2010. You may read 5 articles + an intro about Whyville, including avatars, cheating, race, Whypox, science, and throwing projectiles. (A more scholarly version of this list would include: identity, knowledge building, peer-to-peer learning and play, and epidemics).

But we're not done! In the next issue of Games and Culture there are two commentaries about our writings by Jay Lemke and Mimi Ito. They simply didn't have enough room in this issue to put it in.

It's thrilling to have this special issue out - years in the making.
