Greeny
Case Study No.02
Greeny will help quantify, gamify, and teach others not only the importance of going green, but the how-to's!
I believe people want to go-green, but either don't know how, or even where to start... Not to mention a place to track of these awesome deeds.
Inspiration Story (run like the wind bullseye!)
About 3 years ago, I wanted to start running, I had tons of energy but my only experience had been playing sports in high school (being forced to run at practice). After doing some light research I read about an application that was developed by former crew college students, Strava. To my surprise I learned that these crew athletes had the most fun at practice... The crew races are short and quick and before you know it it's over. (Unlike hockey, baseball, football where the game is actually much more fun then running sprints)
They wrote they enjoyed cheering/competing with each other on at practice... Only one problem, they all graduated. They decided to create an app where they could log there activities and cheer on there fellow crew members. Not only did I love this story but the application had a profound effect on me... Once graduating I moved and all my friends relocated and spread all over the country, you name it they're probably there. But to this day they like my runs and it keeps me motivated. From someone who struggled with 3 miles now runs 20 miles a week and even completed a half marathon. Ok enough about me.
