McGonigal says games make people happy — and she takes happiness very seriously. She's come up with four elements she believes we all need to be happy: satisfying work, the experience of being good at something, time spent with people we like, and the chance to be a part of something bigger. Games, she says, do all of these things.
So, I just want to thank the people in my smallish circle of friends for keeping me from scoring an oh-fer on that scale.
Maybe I should spend more time playing games.
Believe it not, we recruit via Craigslist! (oh...and referrals from friends). We do have one posted opening - http://www.iftf.org/jobs. May all 4 of those elements be in your life soon!

I think she left food out...I've determined that I spend about 80% of my waking hours fantasizing about food and the other 20% eating
