But I think Barry's other (implied) question around provenance is critical too. There are many sly commercial tricks to pump up the apparent volatility of a dataset, including adding unlinked identifiers. I agree the data should be consolidated in the Cloud, but with versions - start use, end use replace with, etc., so the data can learn instead of educate (with perhaps a whole different conclusion in an hour)
Yes! By no silly data-silo games I also imply what you've staed above.Re. cloud consolidation, I just want to reiterate that the cloud (itself) is federated -- with hyperlinks providing its critical tapestry .

One of the problems I see, however, is that all data collected through such games is not accessible or reusable by applications (or in other games, as a matter of fact). Yes this is a really important point.If you get the high score it should be part of linked data to your identity (eg like a badge). This makes the game 100 times more worthwhile to play!... and the effective results published as Linked Data, not hidden away as potential links (classifications, metadata, etc.) in some closed system.BarryAmen!
