!! T3ch GET. One

Здравствуйте!

I was derpin' about the intertubes today, checking out the BBC's news feed. Skipping over the dull parts, I found a gem. 'Augmented Reality'... Just the term makes me feel all giddy. After reading the article, I was pretty blown away....And actually really excited to see where developers would go with this. I am a big fan of games and the like, I do enjoy having fun. I hate sitting around on my rear end. This seems like a pretty excellent compromise. Allowing people to play a game in 'Augmented Reality'. This is actually through the application of a mobile phone's camera viewer and a GPS tracking system used by the cellular company. Holy Moley. Playing a game and having real life effects besides immense weight gain? Sounds pretty good to me, Tom. Anyhow. Something interesting, thought all you basement-dwellers would find this interesting, and post your own speculations on the technology, or the article, or don't. Trolls trolling trolls is fine, too.


EDIT: Seeing as Blogger doesn't like to let my links show up, I'll go ahead and post a flat link here. Enjoy your copy-n'-pasting.
