    They're going to let people ride bikes in it?!

    That seems sort of okay when they're going up the ramp, but a disaster on the way back down...

    There's only one thing funner than making bubbles, and that's popping them.

    "...pitched the Cloud to the city of London for the 2012 Games."

    Are they saying it could be ready in time for the 2012 games? If so that's pretty impressive to go from planning to full completion in 2 years. Although if it was designed as a modular system that would speed up construction. #thecloud

    In reply to Airport Sleepboxes Could Make Layovers Tolerable
    There are already airports in the US that rent modular "offices" via credit card swipe that have a table and room for a few folks plus internet connection, power, etc.

    Rumor has it the full possibilities of these units has already been explored. #sleepbox

    In reply to Airport Sleepboxes Could Make Layovers Tolerable
    This is a good idea in theory. But unless they're soundproof, have an available alarm clock, and are maintained and cleaned between rentals, I can see these going straight down the path of craigslist and its 'erotic services' postings. And I love how the majority of commenters here quickly went the sex route. OMG, sexxxboxes! #sleepbox
