... My sister just introduced me to a game called geoguessr, where it plonks you down in a random Google Street View location and you try to guess where the hell you are. It is addictive. It really is. I'm getting much better at recognising Brazilian road signage. Canada is also reasonably distinct. Signs in general help a lot, really. Also languages. And vegetation/climate, for when the bloody thing lands on you on a random road in the back of beyond somewhere. Heh. I got within 5km of a suburb in Berlin. I also got within a few kilometres of a signpost in the middle of absolutely nowhere in Patagonia, because apparently Argentinian signposts are fairly exact.
For some reason, though, maybe it's just the night that's in it, the thing keeps sending me to Finland, Brazil, South Africa, random small towns in Europe (Brainville-sur-Meuse was my favourite), and occasionally Canada or Australia. Mostly the first three, though. Heh.
Seriously, though, it is addictive.
