This is great indeed. Matt, do you know who made it? Says Drum Roll but not a name as author... would love to feature them in next Community Literacies (early Maker Party edition!)

To go under "make": 

     {
        "title": "Learn HTML by playing this 'Erase All Kitten' game",
        "description": "Save the kittens and explore exotic lands in this fun <a href=\"http://eraseallkittens.com/\">Erase All Kittens</a> game."
      },

our comment was:

    * Kat: what if we made this two items -- one under Make, and then another under Teach?

    * I think this is worth really calling out for both audeicnes: people who just want to play a fun game, plus specifcailly educators/ etc.

    * re: copy. I'm trying to make the headlines more immediately descriptive. I know it's a bit more literal / dull than what you wrote, but I'd like for the headlines to be super grokkable so that people don't have to read the description text to get what it is

re: Drum Roll

* I think they were at MozFest
* I don't know any more than that I'm afraid
* the webmaker community list / twitterverse would know

Hey, Matt - 

* happy to add to both 'make' and 'teach'
* totally get your point re copy, but a bit worried about the alliteration in your edit. Do you want titles to have same words/phrasing as descriptive sentences, or would this not be too repetitive?
* and thx for drumroll ref, have gotten in touch with them on Twitter!

[Matt Thompson (@OpenMatt :OpenMatt)]

* You're right -- the titles and descriptions shouldn't repeat each. My edit wasn't great on that front -- feel free to re-write to address. Main thing is just to make titles super clear, and maybe save the more poetic stuff for the descriptions.

* Please just go ahead and submit your PR -- don't let me hold you up any more. :)
