This is the research diary of researcher Lisbeth Klastrup, since february 2001 sharing her thoughts on life, universe, persistent online worlds, games, interactive stories and internet oddities with you on the www.

I am currently on leave from the IT University of Copenhagen, and from aug. 2006 - aug. 2007 working as Associate Research Professor at the Center for Design Research Copenhagen, an independant center situated at the School of Architecture. During this year, I will be working on a book about the development of aesthetics, design and interaction on the WWW, together with colleague Ida Engholm.

My blog often reflects how busy I am in general, so posting may be pretty irregular, as well as my potential response to comments. But I read them!

Girls Just Want to Have Games, an article about the rise and fall of girl games. It discusses Her Interactive's Nancy Drew series at some length. I have tried playing one of their games, and liked it. "The Final Scene" is a well-made, pretty regular mystery adventure game with very little violence, which included the option of Nancy calling some of her girlfriends on the phone to get moral support, which to me was the most "girl-like" feature of the entire game. As the article points out in the end, perhaps girl games are not that different from boy games, in that it is the quality rather than the gender-bent theme of the plot which make you play them.
