Although it's been out for just a month, Pokemon Go is already bleeding users. A new SurveyMonkey Intelligence report indicates that the game's user base has dropped by over 20% since its peak usage last month. The analytics company estimates that the game peaked at just under 40 million weekly average
In fairness I downloaded the app onto my iPhone.
The game could not be played without signing into a Google account or creating some other account and signing in.
Delete!
I realize I would likely have tried the game for a few minutes then deleted it...
Actually I spent some time with my kids playing Pokémon Go and we all had a very good time. Not only did we spend some quality time outside as a family, we worked as a team (something my competitive 8 and 7 year olds don’t often do).
Quite a few of the Pokestops in our area were located at historic markers or places of interest and that provided an excellent opportunity to take time to teach the kids a little bit about the place they live and people who came before them
Pokémon Go is what you make of it.
Just one bottle?
Depends on how long the book is. The Truman biography I just read consumed about four bottles. Over a number of days, of course.
Fads come and go. This one was mostly harmless. Still waiting for Facebook to expire.
I enjoy good beer out on the deck when I’m reading, but I reach that point where the beer gets better than the book.
I love your comment. The same goes for my family. We spent 2 days running around Galveston 2 weeks ago and had a ball. Lots of fun and laughter. My 67 year old mother downloaded it last week to play with her grandson. It makes me smile to watch them search for Pokémon together:)
