BuddyPig is a game meant to help BuddyPress group members get to know each other better. It was built during a hack day at Automattic. Since we're a distributed company, it's not uncommon to go months without talking to certain colleagues. We came up with BuddyPig as a fun way to work around that.
PIG, in case you're curious, is an acronym for Personal Information Game.
To use it you'll have to write a small plugin to create questions and choose the BuddyPress group you'd like to use. PIG is very hook-able, so there's lots of other stuff you can customize if you're so inclined. We'll include an example plugin to setup PIG below.
PIG requires BuddyPress and its Activity Streams feature to be running. It also requires PHP 5.3, which is slightly higher than the default requirement for WordPress.
