Popfly Game Creator - This is awesome
I've seen sites where you can create your own games. Of course there's also the XNA Game Studio where you can create games for both the XBox and the PC. But with the Popfly Game Creator, people of all ages will be able to create their very own webgames, with just a touch of imagination, and not a line of code (unless they really want to)
Check out the tutorial:
What I love about this is the lowering of the barriers to entry in using technology. You're a maths teacher? Create an online game all your students can play instead of boring homework. You're an english teacher? Create your own storyboard. Perhaps you're a retailer, is there a way you can create your own social community, compelled to increase brand awareness by playing a relevant game of your creation?
I really do think there are benefits here for all groups and organisations. But you don't have to be a developer, just someone with a great idea, a little imagination, and some application.
