Geohot has requested assistance in winning the DARPA Network Challenge. In exchange he will make the community an untethered jailbreak.
The DARPA Network Challenge is a competition that explores the role the Internet and social networking play in the timely communication, wide-area team-building, and urgent mobilization required to solve broad-scope, time-critical problems.
The challenge is to be the first to submit the locations of 10 moored, 8-foot, red, weather balloons at 10 fixed locations in the continental United States. The balloons will be in readily accessible locations and visible from nearby roads.
"10AM EST today marks the start of a US wide scavenger hunt, for 10 red balloons http://bit.ly/7chum5 #dudeitsaballoon"
"The more people that know, the more of a chance the 10 $1000 prizes will be claimed http://bit.ly/7chum5 #dudeitsaballoon"
"And the more of a chance you get an untethered jailbreak! http://bit.ly/7chum5 #dudeitsaballoon"
"So I need your help to do two things, 1, find big red balloons, and 2, RT and trend this!!! http://bit.ly/7chum5 #dudeitsaballoon"
