class generated online dictionary

So when you design a pervasive game concept keep things on the meta level experience and don't forget SEO when translating in to HCI and think of the spectator experience as well...
Ha?
If you are confused of what the heck Oren is talking about, this dictionary might be handy for you.
Welcome the first and only original class generated online dictionary!

Hub - center of something, the root, the essence

Essence - the hub, the root, the center of your idea

SEO - Search Engine Optimization. So, how can we make Google notice us and keep us up there when someone writes "MILAB" (hint - write posts like this....)

Platform - A series of tools that enables you to create with in (from stories and animations to experiences.) Very common word so don't tell Oren you don't understand it...

Augment - is to make something more powerful, meaningful, greater, more significant (see next definition to understand its connection to our work)

Augmented reality (AR) - an environment that includes both virtual and real-world elements (like Tom Cruz wearing glasses in "Minority report")
