BBC and political gaming in 2004

"Online games broke through onto the political arena in 2004", says the BBC today. The article focuses on both the US and Uruguayan election campaign and I am glad that I could get on the record saying that I was the first one to be surprised at how soon campaign games started to gather the attention of politicians. Certainly, there is still a long road ahead, but it was definitively a good start. 2004 was a great, exciting year, with plenty of interesting experiments in games and politics. Now that the year is over, I feel that it was quite an exhausting one for me on a personal level, but it was definitively lots of fun.
