CSD Graduate Student, Luis
von Ahn, taps brain's game skills. He
wants to steal your brain. Not all of it,
mind you. Von Ahn just wants a piece of your time so he can
tap into your brain's cognitive powers. You'll never get your
time back, but he promises the whole process will be painless,
even pleasurable. Post-Gazette
