Speculative Fiction, the Church, and Hope | onehandclapping

"In many ways these [speculative] fictions take up the task that the church has nearly completely abdicated. Churches don’t use their collective voice and energy to challenge the existence of a world where God’s ways are not allowed to reign. Oh, churches fight for their rights, but rarely are the ones helping build a better world for all."

A List Apart: Articles: Designing Fun

"Fortunately, it’s possible to create designs that are 'fun' without resorting to the old 'I’ll know it when I see it' method. There will always be an element of subjectivity in designing fun, but by defining, researching, building, and measuring, we can develop a long-term approach for incorporating 'fun' into our designs. And maybe even have some fun in the process."
