South Korea offers computer fix to commuters
This is ridiculously cool for people like myself who start to twitch when unable to check their email. In technology-friendly South Korea, the entire metro transit system in Seoul offers free computer stations for commuters to use while waiting around in the stations. Each “Digital Station” offers a PC (sorry, Mac users!), a card reader in case you really want to upload some cool photos you took on your way, and a charger for your cell phone.
The computers are totally free for anyone to use. I would say we need some here in Montreal, but just looking at our graffiti and litter-strewn metros, I guess that they would last for all of five minutes before they’d be ruined. As my source, <a href=”http://chipchick.com/2007/10/south_korea_subway_offers_free_pc_stations_for_commuters.html”>Chip Chick</a> said, the most amazing thing about them is the fact that they aren’t vandalized!

But many times they are out of order sadly (was in Seoul in April-May 2006).
