Your feature on GPS, floating messages and the CoolTown project isn’t so far
from reality
(1 December, p 38).
Here in Stockholm I was recently out with
friends, looking for a restaurant in a part of town we didn’t know. We couldn’t
find one anywhere, so a friend reached for his cellphone and said: “I can look
it up. This is a WAP phone, and it has GPS.” He went onto the Internet, we were
pinpointed in space by the GPS and sent a list of restaurants in the
neighbourhood.
Pretty close to CoolTown, don’t you think?
