I just heard this on the radio, a company has divided the planet into 3m (9ftish) boxes and each box has a unique 3 word code. It can then be used to locate people or buildings more precisely than other methods.

Have you heard about it or even used it before?

Please don't post your words!
 
I have heard about it, it's been used for food delivery in my area but since it's so new only a limited number of restaurants use it. Neat idea though, I'll come back to it when/if it becomes more widely used.

nightshade have you been watching Despicable Me?
 
This seems so bizarre to me! So odd. I looked up a beach that I go to and laughed because two of the words were "pensions lullaby" pretty close to the mark of the population there haha.
 
I take it they were not your words as nightshade did specify not to post your words.
In such case the words 'your words' was a sweeping generalisation and 'your words' were not directed at you.
