New map technology?

Post by BRWombat » Wed May 12, 2010 12:59 pm

From CollegeHumor.com:

[INDENT]I work at a theme park in Southern California. Every single day I hear someone complain that their map, the cheap paper one they pick up at the front gate and carry around with them all day, does not have a "You are here" symbol on it. Yes, we put GPS trackers on all of our crappy paper maps so you can always know where you are no matter where in the park you go. Dumbasses.

Wait, isn't Disney doing something like this with their Disney Parks App that is only available on a Verizon phones despite the fact that Steve Jobs is the largest shareholder?
