    We have all seen IBM's new computer that played Jeopardy against us humans and won! Well now they have designed a game with really urban issues and want us, the people to play the game to develop new ways to deal with urban issues. Its like turning the world into a giant think tank.

    (Companies should pay us (college students) for our ideas and solutions, we come up with some pretty awesome stuff)
