The First WiFi Bus(es)

This was a hot news in the tech scene several months ago. The Philippines already has its first WiFi buses. Many netizens were happy of this news since they can virtually stay in the cyber world even if they are in a long-haul trip overland. There are many sub-developments that can improve the experience of being online while on the road.

I think one of those is that the bus units themselves should employ redesigned / re-engineered seats that have computer units installed. The design for bus seats with "embedded" computer units may not be around yet; however, the technology and the materials already exist. It only needs a little imagination on the process.

Techie City Bus Tickets

How I wish that all bus operators in Mega Manila upgrade their ticketing systems to something as techie as this, specially for the air-conditioned buses. Actually, there are more ordinary buses that use this techie ticketing system than their "supposed-to-be-much-cooler" cousins. How did I know this? Yes, I do ride ordinary buses sometimes specially if I am in a SUPER hurry and wants to evade the Ortigas-Ilalim traffic. The ticket in the picture was issued by an air-conditioned bus I took today.

Sisig lovers do have a new haven for their distinctive taste. A new sisig stand presents them with tempting varieties of this always-famous never-tarnishing Filipino all-time favorite. I was at Robinsons Galleria this morning and I had a chance to savor the flavor of the one of the best sisig in the world. Here are my "coverage" photos for this encounter.
