2015 P2P: PROMO: TanGLe Grid: Hypergrid Treasure Hunt. Organization phase. The HGPprojects.

TanGLe Grid: Hypergrid Treasure Hunt.  
Organization phase. The HGPprojects.

Another good feature of the Hypergrid:  It connects people: they can share events and have fun together.   Here I report on a treasure hunt in the process of organization.  Another step toward organizing the HG movers and shakers--what I am calling the Hypergrid project.
