Don't Pokemon-Go and drive!

Newsday

Available for over a year

The Pokemon Go game by Nintendo has overtaken the social media platform Twitter in terms of the numbers of daily users. It's an augmented reality mobile phone game that gets people to go out catching Pokemons and collecting other treasures that are found in the real world. It has led to US police departments issuing warnings to people not to play while driving and museums expressing their frustration with players roaming around their premises. Dimitar Mihoff, technology writer for the Nextweb in Amsterdam, explains what the craze is all about. (Picture: Girls showing their Pokemon Go app on their phones in the US; Credit: Getty Images)
