What3words is an innovative way of solving the problem of accurately addressing anywhere in the world in a succinct and human-friendly way.

what3words provides a precise and incredibly simple way to talk about location. We have divided the world into a grid of 3m x 3m squares and assigned each one a unique 3 word address.
It means everyone and everywhere now has an address.

Wow, that's a lot of SBD!

This huge prize pool is mostly made up of a very kind and generous donation, of 50 SBD, from @papa-pepper as part of his initiative of helping others fund their own contest because, like me, he believes in the power of contests to help to drive "community interaction and fun".

The remaining 25 SBD is made possible because of @aggroed (now @minnowsupport)'s fantastic 'Minnow Support Project' initiative which helps to give exposure to floundering Minnows and boosts the rewards of those deserving, but mostly unnoticed posts (with a focus on those that promote Peace, Abundance and Liberty).

What a great and caring community we are part of!

The contest format

As a side effect of What3Word's addressing mechanism, the what3words map now contains lots of hidden gems such as "pepper.sponsors.game" or these above words that I found as a passenger of one long and boring car journey.

Seeing what random words I got from dropping the What3words 'pin' brightened up my dull journey - and I ended up having a lot of fun on it; I suspect that there are others out there that will find what3words both fun and useful too.

The challenge is to search for addresses on what3words that either means something to you and/or that you find funny

Seeing the person below your entry, perhaps it's not as sinister as I originally read it 😮

I guess the lake I love so much (lake Michigan) was always just

This a more "thoughtful" one. A reflection of Steemit users hinting for followers and smiling when they get followed :)
