More than 118.5 million people in the UK and US play social games at least once a week, according to a report commissioned by publisher PopCap Games. The figure is based on an online survey of 1,201 people in the two countries by Information Solutions Group.

Although never released commercially, ARQuake, created in 2000, is widely recognized as the first augmented-reality game. Developed by the Wearable Computer Lab at the University of South Australia, the game was based on a heavily modified version of the best-selling 1996 first-person shooter Quake. Playing ARQuake required wearing a head-mounted display and field-of-vision tracker connected to a backpack containing a laptop and a GPS; a handheld “gun” controller provided input.

Rebecca Aris interviews Alex Butler The Social Moon We’ve heard from quite a few folks now from both within pharma and those more visible driving change on the outside. This week we’re lucky enough to catch up with someone who has spanned both camps in the last few weeks as he makes the move into the service sector off the back of a successful career with pharma giant Johnson & Johnson. Alex Butler is an extremely well-known figure when it comes to digital pharma, being a regular speaker at conferences and one of the more outspoken pharma folks when it comes to actually personally using social media channels such as Twitter. During his time with Johnson & Johnson he has directly led the development of initiatives such as Psoriasis 360, which won three categories at the recent PM Society Digital Media Awards, so he can certainly practice what he preaches. During our discussion, Alex talks about how his focus beyond pharma, on the broader world of technology and communications and how this affects society, gives him a slightly different perspective on what the industry should be doing to drive better healthcare delivery. He also talks about his personal experience with digital projects, key lessons learned and who else he sees as drivers of change. Critically, Alex provides a perspective on how it’s not all about Facebook and Twitter, but a more cohesive approach to collaboration and online engagement, which involves the use of novel technology from beyond our sphere of comfort.For the supporting article and to add your comments, please visit: http://www.pharmaphorum.com/2011/10/19/social-pharma-faces-alex-butler/

With two iPad apps, a tablet-optimized site, and the KindleFire tablet, Amazon is positioning its tablet experience around pure media consumption. Tablet owners are already shopping more on Amazon than other sites around the web, according to the Moxery Tablet Commerce Guide. Will that those numbers increase once the Kindle Fire tablet gets into the hands of U.S. Internet users later this week?
