Isi artikelDick Talens and his business partner Brian Wang want to take advantage of geeks' enthusiasm for games in order to improve their fitness. Mr Talens is the technology chief of Fitocracy, which calls itself "the fitness social network to level up in real life". It is one of several sites devoted to "self-tracking" and the use of "gamification" to entice members to achieve goals. In his firm's case, you earn points by turning spare tyres into six-packs. Mr Talens, to judge by photos, has succeeded. A chubby child, then a 100kg adult, he now weighs 80kg and competes in bodybuilding competitions.
