This about the importance of addressing slums and informal settlements makes no mention of what 3 words. Which is not surprising as the importances it addresses do not include parcel delivery.

Winter Wonderland, held in That London's Hyde Park during December, used W3W to help visitors locate the various different gates. I thought that was a pretty good use of the tech.

Some of you may find this week's episode of "99% invisible" worth listening to
It's called "the address book" and it talks about addresses and what they mean and their history. It does me too what 3 words too.

I remember reading or hearing about the WV example. It wasn't particularly surprising, given what I know of WV (never been there but had a colleague from there).
