Is that pic Bradford? It looks familiar.
I'm skipping the Pokemon craze but I'm impatiently waiting for "Mario Kart Go", I think it'll be highly successful on Indonesian roads.
Heheh, I think Indonesian roads already come with "Mario Kart Go" or more like "Crazy Suicidal Driver"...

This PokemonGo is a ridiculously poorly thought out game. For those who don't know, it is a mobile app game that allows you to "catch" Pokemon in real life. You have to walk around (or worse, drive around) in the real world with your phone, looking at the real world through it, and you can see Pokemon who are virtually placed in the world. It is just a matter of time before a kid runs into traffic, walking around while staring at their phone, trying to "catch" a Pokemon.

Unless I am very much mistaken that is Bristol, Strangely enough whiteladies road.
Actually, I downloaded the app and it works here in Jakarta. I thought I'd play it with my son but frankly pokemon and all that surrounds it is torture to me. It never attracted me but I can see that it appears to many people, even adult ones. Maybe those who grew up with this game (my younger brother is one) feel a sense of nostalgia?

There would be strong objections when passengers in cars and buses can no longer play (or use any app that implements that restriction). Some will see that as a reasonable trade-off, others will not, but it would not be a simple solution without controversy.There’s a fairly easy way to make the game safer. Detect the speed of the player, if it’s faster than running pace, then make the pokemons invisible. It will force people to do it on foot only. I doubt they’re going to do it though.
Nobody likes to be restricted and treated like a child, me included.There would be strong objections when passengers in cars and buses can no longer play (or use any app that implements that restriction).
