Deep Fun - Review Comments

SITE REVIEW
... The DeepFun home page has an extensive index and links to many
other fun sites. Which is why I think of it as a 'fun portal':

Fun and Self
Fun and Health
Fun and Society
Fun and Family
Fun and Work
Fun and Games
Fun book, tapes and articles
Fun resources
Fun connections

I looked at one or more pages in each of these 9 sections.

... An excellent freebie on this site is the '20th Anniversary On-Line Edition of The
Well-Played Game: a Player's Philosophy' by Bernard DeKoven (aka
Dr. Fun) at
http://www.deepfun.com/WPG.htm
It has some useful and entertaining insights into generating high quality experiences.

... In addition to the DeepFun Community, The Flow Network and The
Well-Played Game I especially liked 'The Interplay Experiment'
http://www.deepfun.com/intrplay.htm - a neat, if predictable, way
of demonstrating the value of fun - for all ages.

Another gem for me was Dr. Fun's advice to an event organiser:
''The first thing you want to do when you find yourself in charge
of a fun event is to make everybody else responsible... Make each
team responsible for making something. Only, instead of having
them create a THING, have them PLAN THE REST OF THE EVENT for
each other!''
