Ludo-whatnow?

Just had reason to touch up my LinkedIn profile. Re-aimed the Volity link to the increasingly useful company page Zarf made, changed my profile's headline from "Software Consultant" to "Software Consultant and Ludocentric Entrepreneur", and added this graf to my description:

I am also the president of Volity Games (http://volity.com), a little startup I run with a few friends. Through various experimental web-based projects, as well as a blog and occasional TV show we produce, we study games as a communication medium, and seek innovative new ways for people to come together through play.

Half of me is rolling his eyes, and half of me says "Yeah, sounds about right."

Y'know, I had no idea what volity.com was about until now. And I've had an idea for building an online game (not an original game, an old pencil-and-paper game) and was pondering what platform to build it on.

Wow, volity.com's a lot uglier than I remember it. Those desaturated grayish shades of blue and green remind me of canned green beans.

"Ludocentric" is a lovely word. Gotta figure out how to work it into casual conversation!

Perhaps instead of saying "a little starup I run with a few friends" which kind of sounds like your belittling your own company, why don't you say "s start up I run with a few colleagues" or something?
