Washington Post Endorses World of Warcraft!

Since the mainstream media is often anti-gaming, it’s good to see the Washington Post join the ranks of publications such as Business Week in pointing out that World of Warcraft players really are learning valuable business skills. The Post takes the position that, if it didn’t alarm people so much, you could totally list some of your gaming accomplishments on your resume. Raids, PvP successes, getting into a guild, and just leveling all require management of resources, tracking of tasks, coordination with others, and in some cases, selling yourself.

On the other hand, this guy has decided that World of Warcraft is a religion. I’m going to say that I think his definition is a little too loose. Any avid grouping might fall under it.
