Bringing games into the real world has been a bit of a trend lately. In the last couple of weeks we've seen Tetris and a zombie video game come to life. Now there's a real life Monopoly game happening in London. Sign up and choose a real London cab, equipped with GPS, to be your gamepiece for 24 hours. Buy properties, charge other cabbies rent. The winner gets their mortgage paid for for a year.

That's funny. Only last night I was sitting reading "Uncle John's Big Bathroom Reader" (required reading in two and a half rooms in our house). There was a story on the history of Monopoly, and it talked about the first full live game which I think happened back in the 70s with a bunch of students in Virginia. They played on the streets of a town, and had gamesmasters stand on balconies with walkie-talkies to direct the play. I guess it's true what they say that there really are no new ideas.
