   The clip you embedded was just Salesforce’s CIO talking about all the money they give away. Which specific clip has the info you are talking about?

   I am trying to visualize Virgin team members holding up iPads for the dozens of passengers coming off at SFO looking for their connection or re-connection because of the delayed flight. 🙂 And how about the flight operations person, with fast fingers and a steel trap mental framework to keep focused! It is a sexy scenario.

   Oh Lord!
   I grew up in a time when there were no answering machines and television broadcasts stopped around 1am.

   All of this connectedness is actually hurts my productivity.
   26 browser tabs open, a Word doc, a screencasting tool, Excel and Evernote are open. Texts coming into my phone. Emails to reply to …

   Bringing this cloud-based chaos on an airplane seems more like an attractive nuisance. However, for the people that really need this, God bless ’em, they’re gonna have the options available.

   I miss the days when the environment would shut itself off. Today, we’ve got to actively shut the environment off and resist checking email one last time before going to bed; checking Facebook one last time before going to the grocery store, etc.

   Chris, I think you’re the best. Gotta tell ya’ bro, as I watched that video I just felt frikkin exhausted. One planes I just want to nap, look out the window or read a book, and have minimal distractions.
