Video Games Hailed as Learning Helper

It's not surprising to those embedded within the video game community, but a new report is out that says playing video games enhances learning capacities in unexpected ways, according to this San Jose Mercury News story.

Right at the top of the story, there is a VP of Human Resources who says that people who play games (and consequently, often into technology) are able to handle more information than those who don't. In other words, navigating through ever-more complex worlds and keeping track of character inventories and such does, in some manner, translate into a better acuity in the business world.
