It was about time someone figured they could bring the selfie-, Facebook-, smartphone-obsessed folks of the new generation out of their stupor and on the street, and actually make them... you know, walk.

I've enjoyed the stories of disparate people, who'd otherwise have no connection, coming together because of this activity. For every random rare instance of someone being a jerk or someone else walking into a tree, there are ten of people displaying true humanity (or wonderful stories like the autistic child with serious socialization and routine problems who suddenly displayed incredible progress because he was given the game and used it as a tool to guide interactions with others.)

Dailyquote:
"The NATO charter clearly says that any attack on a NATO member shall be treated, by all members, as an attack against all. So that means that, if we attack Greenland, we'll be obligated to go to war against ... ourselves! Gee, that's scary. You really don't want to go to war with the United States. They're insane!"
