I know that September was fun month, but this is a great idea. Sponsored by Volkswagen, it has some examples and a challenge to develop a fun way to do something menial. Watch the videos and then check out the contest. http://thefuntheory.com/
That idea is incredible! I especially love the stairs idea…amazing how a little fun makes the world a better place. I would love to see some of these things started in the US…looks like its centered in Europe right now, where they are much more progressive in ideas like these, smaller cars, cycling everywhere as a means of transportation (with dedicated car-free bike lanes to support safety).
In Lebanon, so many people cross the highway by crazily running across lanes, and sometimes they do that right beneath a pedestrian bridge!! What if a similar fun theory could be applied to the bridges, perhaps more lives can be saved!!!

I’m so glad I clicked on this link. This is very inspiring. Can we make everything more fun like this? Exercise? Housework? Paying bills? Sign me up!

I love this. I agree, is there a way to make paying bills or housework more interesting and/or fun?
