Real life Monopoly

I wasn't really paying any attention when this hit the newswaves a few days ago, but it's very much worth a look. Easiest play in the world - grab some real London land (Portobello, The City and Wimbledon for me), and a cabbie (I picked John, he was sticking his tongue out), and sit back and wait. If people - real people in real cabs - land on your property, you make money.

Monopoly

Really, how cool is that? And to boot, they give Shelter a promo, plus it takes all of 2 mins to set up then you sit back and wait, the results are delivered by email. Perfect 'snacking' game.

(Thank you, Ben-san!)

So is there a link for this Monopoly, or is it just too early in the morning for me to spot it?

Ah, via another link. I see. Yes, it is too early in the morning.

Crap, that wasn't too bright of me. I'll add a better one :)

Hard life?
