After the Tremblant trip last week, I decided to do more snowboarding there before the end of the season.

So, I returned this week with a co-worker visiting from China. This week also is the Spin Symposium, we hang around by the super-pipe to see the female qualification round. There are also a lot of people doing big jumps like flips, grabs, 180, 360..... it's just fun to watch from the chairlift.

So, they put up a billboard in Times Square at NYC that people can call and play video car racing game on it..... it's Yahoo! autos ad.

Wireless technology plus location specific service is starting to come into our live. In Europe, I heard you can buy pops using your wireless phone, simply dial and punch in the code. They charge you and the pop drop out of the vending machine. In Hong Kong, you can send SMS to your favorite singer live on TV and ask them questions or dedicate song to someone, with a small fee. Even in Ottawa, now there is a Bell mobility service that provide traffic condition on 417.

Developer will eventually find that "killer" app that get us all crazy about wireless here in North America, may that be a mobile game, information guide, real-time news, or whatever. With the integration of GPS onto the phone, content provider can determine the location and feed the user targeted information. This, couple with data service, sure can help drive the traffic and adoption of data. But cost of data Internet is still the biggest factor at this stage.
