Cool New Orbitz Update Site

September 7th, 2007

If you travel a lot and want a way to keep tabs on the airport and all things related to it. You really should check out this awesome new service from Orbitz.

   In many ways it is like a traveler specific twitter plus vertical industry google mashup. It is written in rails and shows great promise. It will be interesting to see if it gains traction among the blackberry crowd and starts to produce living and breathing real time content that adds that additional value. At a minimum the mashup of things surround the health of an airport should be valuable.

I just want to know where the "bathroom of love" indicator is? I mean when I go to use a john at the airport the last thing I want to do is walk in on some senator doing the nasty! ; )

    Don't worry. Our brave men in uniforms are patrolling the bathrooms so we don't have to worry about it. When I went to Minneapolis to visit a friend from college I was glad to know that there were cops keeping Senators from making awkward sexual advances beneath bathroom stalls. Check out this video of someone from a group of political satirist performers called The Capitol Steps singing a song about this: http://youtube.com/watch?v=x0-IOaWGuP8
