What Games Taught Me?

It seems that games are already having an influence on today's professionals.  In the first Ruby on Rails podcast , David Heinemeier Hansson talks about how his experience as a GM (game master) provide him with the experience to work in a very distributed environment and support the open source software project Ruby on Rails . David says,

"I was learning the skills that it takes to make a group of people mesh..."

I listened to all the podcasts and thought that they really helped give insight to those working on the project and it kind of personalized the process. 

I am still having a very difficult time getting to work for me, but I have never programmed before in my life, so I expected it to be a challenge.

We are starting to find integrated examples of how games are effecting and shaping current professionals.
