An Alternative to Piano Lessons 09/30/2008
 If your kid isn't into ballet lessons or learning to play the piano, there's now an alternative type of tutoring that may be just what they're after. TechCrunch is reporting that a company called GamerTrainer offers in-game tutoring sessions online. Though this story was actually released towards the beginning of the month, I still thought it was worth a mention. Pricing is $30/hour (bulk packages lower the rate), and titles they'll help you with include Halo, Guitar Hero, Madden NFL 09 and others. While I'm not sure this is a service I'd be willing to pay for, it's always refreshing to see a technology startup with an actual business model.  |
