The Crazy Rants of Samantha BurnsSatellite Beer Tracker
GPS systems seem much cooler now that I've read this little news bit.
Satellite tracks the beer that RFID cannot reach
Dutch beer manufacturer Heineken is using satellite and mobile technology to track cargo shipments of beer from the Netherlands to the UK.I volunteer myself as a cargo tracker to save the company some money.The containers will be fitted with wireless devices and tracked using GSM, GPRS and global positioning systems, providing real-time visibility at all stages.
Well, for the short term, anyhow, until I drink their profits away.
(oops, I was supposed to say that last bit under my breath)
Anyhow, nothing beats my own GPS system: Guzzling Precious Suds. With my system, I can track the product from the time it hits my mouth, to the time it vacates.
Lol, don't think too hard about that last line; you'll regret it.

Beer is never purchased, always rented.
