Is anyone going to the Game Based Learning 2009 Conference?

If you are going to this event, please report back here what you learn about game based learning, what are the tricks? What are the innovations? What's really (truly) working etc.

Hello David,

I'm a Master Grads in Digital Games design currently floundering, despite my obvious talents, in the real world. I hope your book can provide some hope for me to stay focused and passionate.
