Passenger-phone interactive screens for subway ads

Japan is the country of long train commutes. I commute 2 hours every day to my work. The trains have print ads hanging on the walls and TV screens above the sliding doors that display animated ads. I watch them all the time when I'm not sitting down. I thought it would be interesting to make them interactive with passenger phones. Allow phones within a certain radius to be used as remote controls to send instructions to the TV screen.

The commercial could ask questions relevant to the product advertised and then collect and display the answers given by the passengers who will press buttons on their phones or send text messages. It can turn into a fun game. For people on long commutes it can add some excitement to the train ride.

Lie To Me (if you can!)

Tim Roth plays the face detective in this new TV series called 'Lie To Me'. He can always tell if someone's lying or telling the truth by analyzing a person's face, body, voice and speech. While watching the series I kept wondering. If every child in the world was trained in school to be able to detect lies, would people stop lying realizing it wouldn't work? What's your view?

Online TV summary for busy people

There are so many shows I would love to watch but I don't have the time anymore. I would like to see an online service that would give me 30 minute or 1 hour video summaries of all my favorite shows and TV programs (national and cable), from comedy shows to reality to interviews and news. That would be a service I wouldn't mind paying a monthly fee for. Anyone interested in starting it?

An intranet system for commercial flights

What about installing an intranet system on commercial flights whereby passengers could text chat or play games with each other? Passengers could use live text chat to meet or talk to other passengers or play games with others on the flight without having to change seats to do that. Isn't a long flight more fun when you happen to be seated next to someone who is very interesting to meet and talk to? How often does it happen though? Instead of leaving it all to chance and serendipity, an intranet system that can connect each and every passenger in the same way online social networks and playing games do would make flights more fun and interesting.

Many people want a kitchen TV, but not many have enough room to get one in without making the kitchen look crowded. And you do not want the tube to take space you need for stuff you really need in a kitchen do you?
