That sounds like great fun. Do you plan to introduce a central server and use a critical radius of a kilometer, or do you want to use wifi. I guess that wifi requires a fairly large userbase. Is it possible to design a system that worked with a central server without having the users reveal their position and identity all the time?
I think a central server would be neccessary. Wifi has limited range, and doing ad-hoc networks is complicated. Bluetooth's range is even more limited. The privacy implications of constantly uploading your real-time position to a central server are formidable, though. -Nick Johnson _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
