    The iPhone can be a freeing tool for the blind, especially when their needs are addressed through apps designed by blind people.

    The author talks about society's addiction to "stupid" mini-games (e.g. Angry Birds), which have minimal learning objectives but help us compartmentalize our lives.

    I saw a guy playing an XBox video game that was loadd onto his console in Denver at Logan airport using a service like this. Very cool service that suspect will only continue to grow over the next year. Certainly this innovation in networked entertainment delivery has potential in the education sector.

    A look at the commercial kids game space. The article indicates the development of kids games is moving to tablets because of the gesture format, low cost of titles and ability to play short games. Disadvantage with tablets highlighted is the lack co-play features (unlike consoles where it's easy for several people to play simultaneously). Games cited in article: Once Upon a Monster, Where's My Water, Niko, Habbo Hotel.

    With bluetooth and WiFi features available, I wonder why there is not much thought about incorporating co-play in mobile games? I think using the gyroscopic features in iPhones and iPads can lead to creative multi-player games.

    This is a blog about a mother's concern for her 6-year-old child's iPad addiction. I saw a similar experience when I visited my 3-year-old and 1-year-old nieces over break. They constantly asked for their mother's iPad and iPhone. It was shocking to see how they could navigate, select songs/videos, and yes, download apps! Moreover, they would spend hours playing with them. It's simply amazing to see how quickly a child can learn a particular piece of technology if they are engaged and motivated to use it.

  • HTML5 will make it possible for many other devices, most notably the iPhone and other smartphones, to view full Web pages without Flash. That would eliminate the need for many companies to maintain separate sites for mobile devices.
