eDiscovery World Sounds Familiar
April 14, 2011
According to the Centre Daily Times, Clearwell Systems has created a new game that takes social gaming into the realm of finances, legalese, and economics.
The long and sort of it is this. Gamers are issued challenges to collect relevant documents, process, analyze, and review all collected documents in order to fulfill the real life “electronic discovery” experience that they will go through in the workplace. As each part of the work flow is finished gamers will be rewarded with experience points and build savings for their company.
“Clearwell Systems, Inc., a leader in intelligent e-discovery, today announced the release of eDiscovery World, which marks the company’s groundbreaking foray into social gaming.”
Now, not to be rude but this all sounds vaguely familiar. The RAND Corporation has already created the “game theory” and still utilizes its effectiveness by continuing to create simulated real life economic situations. How can it be groundbreaking if it’s already been done?
It’s worth wondering what Clearwell has that RAND lacks considering that they’ve entered the competition fairly late in the game.
