摘要

HQ TRIVIA has become one of America's most talked-about smartphone games, with players making a daily habit of answering obscure multiple-choice questions in the hope of winning cash prizes. Meanwhile Amazon, the e-commerce giant, has drawn Americans into a different guessing game-about which site the Seattle-based company will choose for its second headquarters. Around 240 cities and regions applied for that honour last year, and the firm has culled its list to 20 possible places. Government officials from across the country (and Toronto) are cosy-ing up to the tech giant, which has promised to hire as many as 50,000 new employees and invest $5bn in building and operating its new campus over the next 15 years or so.
