Was in a interview in the Bay Area and...

mentioned that, before the interview, I had been placing bombs all around the campus.

Thought that would be a good talking point, as one of the reasons they wanted to talk to me was my various apps, with a focus on PhoneBomber.

As PhoneBomber is all about placing bombs, disarming them, and blowing shiat up, I THOUGHT that would be ok.... did I mention that security goons just don't get massively-multiplayer, location-aware games!?!?! :)

20K, Lots of Bombs!

PhoneBomber is doing pretty good - heading to 25,000 users.  At any given time there's over 10,000 bombs queued up - and there have been over 1 million placed.  Bunch of people look very active, and ALL over the place.

You can see details over at http://www.phonebomber.com/

Here's a map of all bombs that have blown up since the end of last year (ouch!)

Layar

The latest version has a Layar in it - so you can now SEE the bombs around you! Very cool AR app.  Working on getting the layar approved, and then will launch from PhoneBomber.  They don't have a embedded version for Android yet, so will look at just launching...

More users, More Bombs

Still cranking on users - should be over 20k soon! I have not been tracking bombs counts in detail, but I am guessing over 1 million have been placed to date!
