You've also got cellphones, which report where they are <a href="http://www.dailytech.com/Google+Rolls+Out+Mobile+Phone+Locator/article9826.htm">via gps</a> at all times. What if you hook them together with a database of cellphone owners and their <a href="http://www.pr-usa.net/index.php?option=com_content&amp;task=view&amp;id=41656&amp;Itemid=9"> shopping habits</a>?<br /><br />What if <a href="http://code.google.com/android/">Android</a> plans to do just that?<br /><br />So it's out of Blade Runner and into the mega version of <a href="http://www.slate.com/?id=2067293">Minority Report</a>.<br /><br />Signs that change ads based on how many of what type of consumer on are on freeway in its line of vision.

So this blog started as a joke.
