Today's critical thought is on the subject of gamification. A polarizing topic depending on who you talk to, it's the philosophy of adding game mechanics and design to daily life to improve motivation. Some say it's the next big things, others say it's just BS. I talked about the definition and some examples of use and potential.

I also accidentally cut myself off at the very end, but I'm sure you've all heard the speech by now.
