Details: Run the streets looking for WiFi nodes, photograph the most, and win the game. The Rules 1) Run the city and scan for networks. 2) Find a open hotspot that you can connect to. 3) Take a photo of your team, at that location 4) Email that photo, from that hotspot (and only that hotspot), with the general location info (like cross streets) and Network Name (SSID). 5) Check out www.noderunner.com to see who is winning. 6) Games last 1-2 hours FAQ's Q. Can I bring external antennas and all my WiFi gear? A. Yes bring any and all WiFi sensing and scanning hardware/garments/pets/agents/lava-lamps/amobeas you have. It might give you the winning edge. Q. Are you going to give us a map? A. Nope, that's the game and hence the name, "noderunner." The teams need to find the existing open in a city or area. (We do not setup a "scavenger-hunt" of hotspots ahead of time. We want to find the open nodes that the good people of NYC have already setup and besides there are always new ones popping up all around us.) So run the street, enter buildings and galleries, climb up fire-escapes but find more nodes then the other team! Tips: 1) Before coming please make sure you have scanning software installed on your laptop or PDA. (see below) 2) Charge you devices! : ) 3) Hold your laptops high while searching for nodes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Scanning Software Mac OS X http://www.macstumbler.com/ iStumbler http://www.istumbler.net/ KisMAC http://www.binaervarianz.de/projekte/programmieren/kismac/ WINDOWS NetStumbler http://www.netstumbler.com POCKET PC PocketWarrior http://www.pocketwarrior.org LINUX Kismet http://www.kismetwireless.net |
