J'ai déjà évoqué les rapprochements entre jeux et bibliothèques. A signaler ce réseau hébergé par Ning baptisé Serious Games.

"A serious game may be a simulation which has the look and feel of a game, but corresponds to non-game events or processes, including business operations and military operations. The games are intended to provide an engaging, self-reinforcing context in which to motivate and educate the players. Other purposes for such games include marketing and advertisement. The largest users of SGs are the US government and medical professionals. Other commercial sectors are actively pursuing development of these types of tools as well."

SG se décline aussi sous la forme d'un wiki et d'un blog.
