All Together Now - Concepts

A game/app where you get people to do the same thing together... sort of like “In sync”  (not the boy band) so that each day, people would check their app and do the instructions that popped up.   slightly viral, mysterious. (ex. high five the next person you see).  Another avenue for something like “improv everywhere”  

This isn’t as much of a game idea as it is a social experiment, and power in numbers coming together through technology.  Think of it sort of like "kickstarter", only instead of asking people for money for your project, you would post/text what they thing you want everyone to do... it would be focused on doing something to help someone, by either just brightening their day, or letting them go in front of you in line at a store. But then think of millions of people doing it...


Within the app, you would sort through a list of things other app owners have suggested, you select what you want to promote for the next day and then which ever "deed" got the most votes would be what everyone would get asked to do. The next day would come, the notification would pop up, and if you did it, it would catalog it, give you points, the app could return how much of a difference you and all the participants made that day. :D I'd have to get some tech that would be able to tell if people ACTUALLY did the good deed, or just said they did it ;)
