What is that phone with a cable?

The daughter of a colleague had an interesting comment this summer when they were visiting a hotel in Greece. The hotel room had a fixed phone, as most hotel rooms do.

She was wondering what that cable from the phone to the wall was there for. Was this some mechanism to prevent the phone from being stolen? She had obviously only seen ‘wireless fixed phones’ in her life, and could not understand why the phone actually needed a cable.

I think this is a strong sign that things are definitely changing!

Advertising…

I’ve added some Google ads on the site, just to learn how it’s done. I don’t really expect the big volumes :-)

I am wondering about mobile instant messaging and advertising. Will it happen? How to get most out of it? How to make it less annoying for the user?
