I'm in the press! I'm impressed!

Sweet, I'm in a ZDnet Asia story about free Wifi on Singapore's transportation systems!
Singapore-based magazine editor Lisa Cheong said she welcomes the provision of Wi-Fi on public transportation, and would be encouraged to choose one transportation service over a competitor if Wi-Fi is provided.

In an e-mail interview with ZDNet Asia, she said Wi-Fi would be especially useful in situations where 3G reception is spotty, such as on the underground subway network. Cheong, who has a mobile data subscription, pointed out that she would choose Wi-Fi in such scenarios for the more stable connection offered.

She added, however, that a big deterrent to using Wi-Fi on public transportation would be a cumbersome log-in process. Compared to Hong Kong's public Wi-Fi service, Singapore's Wireless@SG's log-in process is a turn-off.

This is so much cooler compared to the times when Lian He Zao Bao used to call me to get my opinions on boring HR stuff.
