A ton of activity this week at Game Theorist:
Lots of posts at Game Theorist this weekend including:
I just thought I’d alert all parents to a site, Trixie Tracker that allows parents to collect data on their babies. I have written about it today over at Game Theorist.
Parentonomics‘ publishers, New South, are offering a 20 percent discount for pre-orders. Click here to access the special offer. (Pre-orders are Australia and New Zealand only — news on the rest of the world hopefully very soon).
