In this @washingtonpost article, @Deirdre206 explains why #MinecraftEdu is a great #DistanceLearning tool as education content comes to the @Minecraft Marketplace. msft.it/6018TdW6r

Singapore University of Technology and Design students created a Minecraft version of their campus when their in-person open house was cancelled because of Covid-19 precautions. It will be interesting to see how students craft virtual events with more school closures. ✨⛏

OpenStreetMap is a freely editable map, which sometimes attracts vandalism. We condemn anti-semitism, and the recent defacement around New York. The community fixed this issue within 2 hours, and the vandal has been blocked from further editing. blog.openstreetmap.org/2018/…
