Speed of the Internet...

Post by ZubenElGenubi »

So, I'm sitting at Bubbles Car Wash here in Houston. They've got Wi-Fi, and I've got my laptop and my PDA/cameraphone, so I decide to try an experiment.This photo was taken less than four minutes ago:The hard part was making this post without a mouse!Simply put: I took the pic with the cameraphone, beamed it to my laptop via infrared port, resized it, logged on to GV, made this post.I think we're gonna have to try this at the SouthCentral meet!!

Nice looking carwash I only go to those types of car washes, since my appartment does not allow us to hook up a hose....I gotta get a house

That's a fancy carwash! I'm gun-shy about car washes now since I messed up one of the wheel covers on the track I think it's hand washings for me from now on. At my townhouse building's car wash stall, they disconnected the faucet. The closest faucet is the next building. I gotta get a house too!!!
