HTC is taking the HTC Vive on a world tour and you can follow along

HTC says that these dates and locations are subject to change, so check the HTC blog for the most up to date information.
In fact, you can follow the world tour by checking HTC’s blog everyday for photos, videos, and stories, and HTC will also post on Twitter using the @HTCVive account, and the hashtag @HTCViveLive (typing that is like a tongue twister for your fingers).
It does look like a cool thing to follow, and the product itself seems to have potential.
The HTC Vive will be made available to consumers during this year’s holiday shopping season for an unknown price.
