OK, this is just too cool. Sharkrunners is a game set up by the Discovery Channel for people to learn more about sharks. Human players take on the role of captains of virtual research ships, tooling around coastal waters looking to collect data on sharks. The sharks are controlled by–sharks! Yeah, the wii controller is so yesterday, so species-centric. Sharks have been tagged with GPS devices and control their position in the game by, you know, swimming around the ocean. The game is played in persistent real-time, with updates sent to you via email or SMS. (via infoaesth)
