Geo-what?

Slate turned me on today to what it calls "the insanely addictive" GeoGuessr.

I'm not addicted yet, but I would like to try it again.  I'm just afraid I'll come crashing back to earth after my first game, in which I scored 3,00 more points than Slate's "senior cartographer from National Geographic."  (I'm sure you'll understand if I choose to focus on the difference in our scores -- not on the fact that she seemed to make all 5 of her guesses in a grand total of about a minute and a half, while I spent 10 times longer on each question as I searched for signs, license plates, flags, . . . -- anything that might give me a clue.)
