The San Jose Mercury News (http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/news/11617451.htm) has an article on the front page today about the benefits of playing games.

Video-game players often display exceptional business skills.

"The people who play games are into technology, can handle more information, can synthesize more complex data, solve operational design problems, lead change and bring organizations through change,'' said Luman, 38.

Yeah, these things pop up every little while. Good for us I guess... I'll be sure to put how many hours I've logged on Counter-Strike and World of Warcraft in my next resume.

Of course the mainstream media will deny that any kind of article such as this exists.

Silly people. Use the ButMeNot extension for Firefox (http://roachfiend.com/archives/2005/02/07/bugmenot/) and don't deal with "free reg" crap ever again.

Legion, using Firefox would mean stepping away from the Micro$oft teat. Can gamers really do that?
