I can see how young kids and teens could become "gaming fans" as the many sites are full of gaming opportunities for all ages and interests. I am not a gaming fan, but that is only because I am, shall we say "older for it" and have other interests. I would rather be riding or working outside than sitting in front of a computer playing games. When I am inside I would rather be reading than sitting playing games. Now competing against my grand kids "gaming on the TV" is another thing, that I do and will continue to do only because I have not gotten the upper hand, yet! And when it comes to playing Wii, that is really fun because I can do it, I can understand it.
Gaming is not for everyone, but it can become an incentive to get kids and teens into the library, as we are currently doing at Oak Harbor with our Teen program on Wednesdays. The more we connect with what Teens are interested in the more Teens we will connect with - hey, it is all about connectivity.
