Little Brother

I don't fully agree with some of the aspects of Little Brother. The main thing that I have a problem with is the concept that I have trouble with is the thought that after Marcus had been wronged he was able to form a group of a handful people that had enough skill to oppose a well-trained government agency. I also don't  know how he would be able to go back to a "normal" life after everything he went through, or how the DHS were able to declare marshal law after only one terrorist attack. While I found Little Brother to be a good book I just had trouble with some of the over-the-topness of the book.

Final Essay

Just realized that I forgot to post my essay topic. I am doing my essay based off of Jane McGonigal's TED talk of Gaming Can Make A Better World. The topic is on whether or not video games can be used to help better people and if they can be used to help better the world. At the moment I do not think that they can, but that might change as I research into it more.
