Do we run the risk of seeing the world around us based on the content promoted to our devices? Probably. But, there are many places where that content might be more interesting than what's out the window, anyway. Either way, this has the "potential" to compliment our offline reality. Thanks for the comment, Gordon. Happy you found my blog. Now that’s an interesting application of this technology.

Imagine hitting the "I'm hungry" button as you drive down the highway, having a list of upcoming restaurants appear, hitting their icon, selecting what you want, and then pulling into the drive through with food ready to go and all of it paid for via your online account. The idea of hunting is cool too. Imagine a world with layers of information tied to geography. It's like a real life RPG.

Music with coffee, audio book with your newspaper, podcast with the lasted art center visit. This desire to collect was captured by Apple's intelligence understanding users mobile lifestyle. I fear for my pocketbook when this tool of consumerism enters my world. I recently witnessed this desire to hunt, with curiosity, as my son chased around a building to collect clues for his little notebook. His original desire was to acquire answers so that he could get a toy prize. Shortly after, about the time when the toy lost its luster, he would talk and talk about his experience of hunting for clues and when could he do it again.

I was thinking about sporting events as well, and that stats/scores/camera angles and instant replays could be provided to fans providing them a deeper connection to the event. Agreed on the advertising issue, and you know that is looming in the background of this innovation. Regardless, I think this has the potential to make our communications tools much more active contributors to our daily lives and tasks... actually making them useful in an integrated way.

How about gaining access to information on a specific work of art in a museum, as you stand in front of it. To play the Devil's advocate, I will say that I'm not looking forward to site-specific contextual advertisments. Ugh. These are great ideas.
