Now MyTown 2.0 Evolves The Gaming And Monetization Of Location with 32 million check-ins, 2.2 million unique locations and 500,000 users. Check in, buy properties and collect rent to upgrade your properties & listings. I own TBWA\Chiat Day & LA Live. *cha ching* The game play needs some fine tuning. I want to see the users who’ve checked into my properties, and connect with them. Also, why can multiple people own one property, and how does the ownership ranking benefit the owner? Hopefully some of these will get addressed in future updates.. or my properties may be abandoned.

Deth P Sun’s 3ftx3ft historical map of SF, including the little defining nooks of the city that a Bay Area resident could know. The piece was created for the SF Arts Commission show that ran last year, but is currently being shown at the JANM here in LA through January 2010 (it was one of my favorites for obvious sentimental reasons). You could also just go ahead and snatch it up on the Giant Robot store for a mere $4K.
Check out Deth’s own description of the work and it’s evolution here. One of Mochi’s fav artists, Im glad I got to see this one while it was local.
