The Next New Thing

If I was to create some a new type of "new media", it would be to expand the Internet into the MTA system. We all know that riding the MTA can be very boring especially when some of us have to travel from home to school/work that can take over an hour. With Internet access, we are able to occupy ourselves with more important things other than listening to music, playing games, etc while we are riding the trains below ground level; we can save time by doing things we normally aren't able to do underground and use our free time to do something more important. For example, since I am a student, I can do some work that requires Internet access such as this CIS class. I believe that with Internet in the MTA system, people will be able to utilize their time more efficiently.
