There you go … the free trial of Radio Userland was as kind as to silently notify weblogs.com that I was creating a test site. At the time of writing, this test curiously scores as the #1 hit on Google if you search for “ludologist“.
For some reason, I have the largest Googleshare of the word ludology of anyone – 53.37% to be exact. As a random comparison, Gonzalo Frasca only has 10.34%. It doesn’t really make sense, but who am I to complain?

Nice to have a somewhat obscure word to associate. My wife and I were speculating whether it was connected to “Luddites” or something before I read one of your entries that clarified it. It might be worthwhile to aquire a domain name or two based on it, that is if you want to use it like a brand at all. I suppose that “Juul” is to common in Denmark to get juul.dk? gleason.com was long taken before I would have thought of it, although I do have clangleason.org that I plan on using for personal/family stuff.
