Find Those Elusive Power Outlets in Airports

by admin on July 26th, 2006

Every time I travel long distances, I spend some time in airports looking for outlets. I'm a bit obsessive this way–I like knowing I have as much battery power as possible for the next leg of the journey.

Often outlets are difficult to find. Even worse, some airports rig their outlets so that you need a special kind of plug to access them.

Kudos, then, to the AirPower Wiki, which is dedicated to helping geeky travellers find power outlets across the globe. It's in its infancy, but it will no doubt prove useful down the line.

    The wiki, created by a Microsoft employee, doesn’t, (I’m shocked, Shocked!) work. It hasn’t worked in weeks, but at least it didn’t crash my computer.

    Nice idea, poor execution.
