As a teacher, I hear a lot from my students what sort of recreational activities they enjoy. Those are a wide and varied lot, but I do have one segment that is interested in role-playing games -- those involving cards, computers, or the internet. Well, recently I've heard a couple of them talking about a new game they came across called HeroBits, which they found at HeroBits.com.

I was intrigued, and so I visited the website. I was initially struck by the homage to the old trading card games that were in vogue when I first began teaching and which still have a following. Indeed, the site has even launched its own trading card games with which players will be able to amuse themselves offline every bit as much as they do online.

Of interest to me is the other aspect of the site, which profiles the trading card artists who design these cards. Now that is great -- the ability to become a part of the fandom of these talented artists. There are also forums where you can have discussions with other HeroBits players. Why don't you drop by the website now and see what they have to offer you in the way of entertainment and fun
