MTV's 'Pos or Not,' the HIV guessing game

12:55 PM PT, Apr 30 2008

mtvU.com has posted the 'Pos or Not' game--based on HotorNot.com, but instead of rating people's attractiveness, this game asks you to guess from their appearance whether or not they're HIV positive.  After a few times of guessing incorrectly--either way--the effect is achieved.  Smart idea.

Pos

(Incidentally, this is a much more useful riff on HotorNot than this.)
