Charles Leadbetter article in the Guardian using the example of Alternative Reality Games to introduce the concept of group problem solving, or “We Think” as they dub it: http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2008/mar/09/internet.web20

“We are just starting to explore how we can organise ourselves without the trappings of traditional organisations. Watching [Alternative Reality Games] unfold is a bit like being in Detroit in 1905 when Henry Ford was still experimenting with mass production. A new organisational possibility is unfolding before our eyes. Where might We Think culture take us?”

This alludes to (but doesn’t specifically mention), the concept of a SeriousGame? [1] , such as World Without Oil.
