Every start-up needs a good roadmap.
This guide will help you get the most out of the hops we take in-between our ports of call on the Seven Game Roadie, which starts on 7/24.
The Map (aka GeorgeO)
Perhaps the most exciting development is The Map, nicknamed GeorgeO. Using Google Latitude, GeorgeO will let you know exactly where the team bus is at all times. It will go live on Friday, 7/24 and stay lit throughout the Seven Game Roadie’s 8th game in Los Angeles on 8/3.

Seven Game Roadie – the site
Once up, this is where most of the pictures will go.
This site will also consult with GeorgeO on identifying the route in prose.
While I am looking forward to finding what’s out there, it will all mean much more with contributions from you. All kinds welcome. All minds open.
To paraphrase: “What I intend to do is to find reminders of how this game, which was once the National Pastime, still permeates our consciousness…. Can we figure out the union’s state in the context of baseball in-between all the hops, the lines, and the rocks and the hard places that make up life in our 21st century?
