New Game...

To stop everyone else getting embroiled in BatBoy and Billford's little spat on the other thread about location services....

I've just had an idea for a new game...

Who is the most mobile iPhone owner and the least...

I just downloaded the app ( http://petewarden.github.com/iPhoneTracker/ ) and watched the video of my travels....

On the World view it looks like a lot just west of London (curiously where I live), Istanbul (Business Trip), London again, Las Vegas (Business Trip) and back to the UK... What fun- tells me exactly what I can remember

Happy for anyone who wants to see it, but I bet there'll be someone who travels a lot more than I do and conversely someone who never leaves the house in which case their blobs would just presumably sit over their house and grow bigger.

p.s. just have to work out how to record the video to post it.

p.p.s. just noticed I was in two places at same time- that must have been after I exchanged my ancient work Crackberry for an iPhone and only took one of them on a trip

p.p.p.s. Apparantly I spend the majority of my time near Soho... You're right, not the sort of Data I want to let my wife to get her hands on!!! :0

That's sarcasm not irony.

Uh-huh, got another word for that one ~ Disingenuous ~ A marvellous term of phrase. I have used that on many occasions. It can be the cause for many a smile in some, agreements by others, and the rest calmly agreeing, making the first group roar with laughter.

Nice. I love words.

sarcasm

noun
the use of irony to mock or convey contempt

So If you had said it it would have been sarcasm, but as I said it it was irony, as I don't have a problem with them being called Location Services.

Now we've got the english lesson over, can we please discuss the subject of the OP??

That's entirely up to you.
