ANN: new book-in-progress on game design + UX

(apologies for duplicate postings)

Hi all, I'm very happy to announce that John Ferrara has just begun work on
a new Rosenfeld Media book, *Playful Design: Creating Game Experiences in
Everyday Interfaces.  *I absolutely love this topic; here's the blurb:

Game design is a sibling discipline to software and Web design, but they're
siblings that grew up in different houses.  They have much more in common
than their perceived distinction typically suggests, and user experience
practitioners can realize enormous benefit by exploiting the solutions that
games have found to the real problems of design.  This book will show you
how.

Keep up with the book by visiting its *site*:
