This thursday (December 15. 2005) I was quoted in a newspaper article (in Urban) about whether driving videogames had a bad influence on the young peoples driving experience - forcing them to drive to fast. I said it could have some sort of influence but on the other hand, people playing these driving games also improved their driving skills. Furthermore, I reckoned that young people always want to drive fast and try out the limits.
In the article, however, it seems as if I am terrified of young people driving to fast due to videogame influence on their behavior. I guess it is a better story. But it was not the story I would have preferred to be sold in my name.

Yesterday we had a the annual general meeting in spilforskning.dk [Game-Research Deanmark]. It was a chat-meeting and worked fine. I was reelected as the chairman. The last few years we've been working on the national games-education program. Now we are moving forward towards research programs.
