This afternoon, I heard an interesting radio interview with Jesse Schell (a game designer and a professor at the Entertainment Technology Center at Carnegie Mellon University) that I thought the community here at GameSalad might be interested in.
Here's a description from the Spark website: "He gave a very engaging, provocative talk recently, suggesting that we’re starting to see the 'game-ification' of everyday life, and that gaming will likely become the norm as a mode of advertising, or even to push forward public policy."
The full interview is 43:44 minutes long and can be found here:

It's a fun listen so give it a chance if you have time!
