Live avatars is definitely a design concept I’m going to implement in my next redesign. Subtle, personal, lively. It seems so simple an idea, I’m surprised there isn’t more of them out there.

Here’s a fun game that has already sucked up an hour or two of my time. Get dropped into a random Google Street View, look around, then take a guess where you are. You get points based on how close and you get five rounds added up for a total. It’s amazing how similar terrain Read More > >
