ok, i read ages ago about a trial in cardiff (i think) about a radio network where each home was a node and sumwhere there was a internet POP...
surely this is the future? as it grows u end up with a massive network in itself, areas link up as more ppl join and before u kno it there is no definition of where this WAN and the international WAN that is the internet join.
anyone can host, there can be less censorship (no ISPs) and no one can limit what anyone else can do. It also makes the whole thing even more fault tolerant.
or at least thats how i see it./me cowers from flames.
pretty fantatic article in latest Develop magazine... "why games should be pointless"
many of the most pointless games are the most entertainin and give much better replay value. Why go to the effort of makin things non linear when they can be just utterly without aim.
what was i sayin?
oh yeah,
pointlessness, ideal. fits my experience of education down 2 the ground.
