Singapore’s a small country but a big city.
Won’t you help Smoochy the Frog learn about all the interesting places in town?
Here’s how!
Each team gets a frog. Over the course of the JFDI bootcamp, take him with you and post photos of your team with him and with the target object. Use the hashtag #jfdi2012.
