Mixing physical and digital play

Interesting mix between physical and digital play where gamers can literally put their toy characters into the game. I think having this tangible feel to online gaming allow gamers be attached and engaged to their online characters even when are offline.

On a different note, some say having digital photos will never replace the tangibles ones that you can touch and feel, seeing this I wonder if we can change that…

After defeating the evil Darth Vader  I have finally been inspired  to use flickr to share my collection of digital artifacts from all over the web.

Hope people find it useful. I am still trying to find the best way of organising the photosets.

I am using a tool called Flickery to view and organise my collection and thats been great so far but has a few flaws. The biggest one for me is the extremely constricted search functionality. Its still worth checking out if you want to start collecting benchmarks online.
