Yeah, someone found a body. I just downloaded it and I've never played pokemon. I'm going to give it a try when I feel like walking somewhere. Hopefully I find something cool

If I had named three, charizard would've been the third.
Those three were my favorite, even though I was a little old to be watching it at about 12 or 13 I think.

Pokémon GO is bigger than Tinder and chasing down Twitter 
Quote:
According to data from SimilarWeb, Pokemon Go has already been installed on about 5 percent of Android smartphones, compared to Tinder on about 2 percent. Clearly, Pokemon fulfills a basic human need.
Tinder isn’t the only stalwart app that Pokemon is blowing out of the water. Pokemon Go is coming for Twitter too, and its 3 percent of daily active users on Android (as of Friday) is set to overtake the 3.5 percent of daily active users on Twitter, if it hasn’t already. Let’s not forget that Twitter has been around for a decade, while most of the world was completely unaware of Pokemon Go two weeks ago.

Yes, but only to question the phenomenon. Plus, I'm stuck at work with nowhere to go.
-------------------- Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not. --Jac O'keeffe

Yeah. Not much attention span amongst the entirety of its user base age demographic.

Fuck the conspiracy theorists. If morons want to freely give up personal information to play a stupid game, let them.

I'm in my mid thirties, and was a bit old for Pokemon when it got popular in the late 90s, but a bunch of my friends are into this Pokemon GO thing. I doubt most of them play much Pokemon stuff aside from that, but I know quite a few people who are playing it with their own children, so I think that's great. Playing a video game with your kid while getting them outside, being active, bonding. I've seen several friends talking about how this app got them out walking an additional 5, 6 miles a day since installing it. People talking about meeting new friends while playing. Etc.
Pokemon is kinda retarded, but it's a positive kind of retardation. It seems better than some of the other crap going on in the world last week.

As far as I read, it was about what the TOA stated the data collected could be used for, and that it had full Google account, camera, and most-all other data permission.
