Data as seductive material. April 3, 2009. I got invited to northern Sweden by the lovely folks at Umeå Institute of Design. At the t...

It will also show you who else is at, or has been at, that same location or nearby. It's very similar to Google's Dodgeball. And Yahoo's Fire Eagle. Links to this post.
