I have tried it three times and I find this way of teleporting very pleasant. I am particularly bad in geography, but it seemed to me that the places of some videos were sometimes particularly easy to identify. It's good when you feel lost. And the three times around the twenty videos I had a bug (with Firefox). And lost all my progress.

cool site, confusing UX.

At first I thought it was offering me a choice between 4 random places to go next. That would also be awesome.

This is one of my favorite things I’ve seen on the internet in a while. Just so awesome. One thing I think that might be improved would be to prevent some situations where for example I was given as choices something like China, Vietnam, County A in West Virginia, County B in West Virginia. It clearly was in West Virginia (too easy), but which county was too difficult.

This is amazing! Really fun. I would also love to see a more even distribution geographically, it’s currently very US/Europe/South American centric.
