Kodu is out, get your kids coding

Microsoft has released Kodu (formerly known as Boku) for Xbox and limited PC distribution. It’s essentially a virtual world development environment for kids. The “programming” is done through logic primitives, which are assembled together through a graphical interface and the Xbox controller.

Long Zheng has some pretty good screenshots, and if you want to see Kodu in action, take a look at the PDC 2008 Day 3 Keynote at time index 71:40 – 82:50. Looks like fun!
