Flickr FIRST game...

Any of you folks been to this site: http://slane.bradley.edu/games/fastr/

It is a very fun game based on flickr photos. It picks random photos that share the same tag and you complete to name the tag based on the photos you see.

I think this could make a very fun FIRST game. Suppose we had a library of photos with tags based on their first team number. The photos could be team shots, robot shots, shots of the town or highschool or sponsor logo of the team, shots where there are a mixed group of robots or drivers or whatever. Points are awarded for identifying the common team number in group of photos.

This would be a HUGE amount of work but... ...it would be fun and I think it would build the sense of community among FIRST teams. We'd all learn a lot more about the 1000 or so other teams.

I am not looking to do this myself. I am looking for someone with more time than sense to think about doing it over the summer and seeing if we can make it happen.

Just a suggestion. What do you think?

Joe J.
