Collaboration + Gamification = Performance
Introducing the GBase
Part of our mission at Gamification Co is to catalogue the breadth and depth of gamification across industries. As gamification has grown, one of the top requests from our readers is “Do you have an example of gamification for *insert idea here* ?” While we do have a steady stream of gamification news, we recognize there might be more intuitive way to present the full catalogue of known examples.The Gamification
Jouer pour innover : les bourses à idées sont dans le vert
Les boites à idées collaboratives pour entreprises ont connu leurs débuts avec l’avènement du blog, en réutilisant ses fonctionnalités principales : post, commentaire, tag. C’est ce qu’on appelle les ideablogs. Rapportant à nouveau dans l’entreprise les tendances du web, elles surfent désormais sur la vague de la gamification, c’est-à-dire l’application de mécanismes de jeu, sensés augmenter la pratique, la motivation et la mémorisation dans des domaines non ludiques, et notamment le travail. Partons sur un exemple dans cette tendance à gamifier certaines boites à idées : jouer à la Bourse. A son premier niveau, la gamification se réduit souvent à ses deux symboles : l’utilisation de points et de badges.Gamers solve scientist-stumping enzyme puzzle
Thousands of gamers playing a crowd-sourced, citizen science project called Foldit have solved a puzzle that's stumped biochemists for more than a decade. Better yet, their discovery could open new doors to a cure for Aids. Scientists had failed to uncover the structure of a retrovirus enzyme which plays a critical role in maturation and proliferation of the AIDS virus . Knowing exactly what this protease molecule looked like would help researchers build a targeted anti-AIDS drug. "We wanted to see if human intuition could succeed where automated methods had failed," said Firas Khatib of the University of Washington Department of Biochemistry.The social enterprise's Holy Grail: Gamification meets 'workstreaming'
What if you could stop a technology project from becoming a complete disaster by pausing, rewinding and correcting the exact point where things ran amok? What if company interactions were totally transparent? And what if an enterprise could look across all of its workers to mix and match the best skills? That's the promise of "workstreaming," a phrase coined by Salesforce.com Chief Scientist JP Rangaswami. I caught up with Rangaswami for a 90 minute chat (we ran over a good bit) last week at Salesforce's Cloudforce powwow in New York.Par Hubert Guillaud le 16/02/11 | 6 commentaires | 3,936 lectures | Impression La gamification ( Wikipédia , que certains traduisent par “ludification”), c’est l’idée que les règles et techniques de jeux peuvent être transférées dans d’autres domaines, rappelle Nicolas Nova, l’un des organisateurs de la conférence Lift qui se tenait il y a peu à Genève. Ce qui n’est pas sans limites… ni critiques. La vérité sur la gamification

Le double jeu de la gamification
But who wants to troll? Let lightning strike. Let the clues suddenly coalesce in the brain — “field!” — as they do so often for young children solving a riddle.
