Waze Navigation

From: www.waze.com
What I love about this app is that it is set out like a game. It's a "social" game where you can see other Waze users on the road and earn points by hitting landmarks.http://gizmodo.com/5656790/the-best-navigation-apps

I think that this is a pretty cool aspect and would like to include this type of idea in the app I create. Perhaps students could earn points as they get to their destination and pick up other "points/coins" along the path on the navigation system. Then maybe they can share their results on facebook and compete with others to earn the most points. This would add an addictive type element to the interface. It would also make the application a lot more appealing to first years who will be the target market for an app such as this.
