In an article:
"GPS devices are getting smaller, and over the next couple of years more and more mobile phones will come equipped with chips that communicate with satellites in space, providing pinpoint data about your location"
In Japan:
Japan has had Internet in cell phone for a long time (i think about 8 years).
Because of that there are so many Internet sites for only cell phone.
Cities in Japan are so crowded and big. New building are built everyday and many shops change there name and owner so fast, nobody knows what's where.
One time I asked a guy working at an electrical appliances store in Tokyo,
"Do you know where I can find a restaurant called [....]?"
He said "I'm sorry I don't know."
I found the restaurant 1 block away from the store by using GPS on cell phone.
Now cell phone companies are adding GPS function to the cell phones.
The technologies are making our lives easier to live, but I'm sure in the old days people knew everyone around the street and could tell me what's where...

How the web polarized politics
Which government would you choose if you had a choice of
A government that monitors your every move,
or
A government that won't move without your opinion?
I would choose a government that monitors my every move.
Good companies do market research to find out what kind of things we like and want then provide goods or services.
So if government knows what we want and like, then government will act as it should.
if a government asks us for approval for everything. it's too much, if we do that then what's the point of having representatives or delegates for governing the country.
Computer technology can enable us to do all these, but will it be a good idea?
