Way more than ‘web browser on a stick’ we have developed a two-part application suite designed to be robust in a live environment with full moderation capabilities. The first outing for the system was Eddie Izzard’s Stripped Tour (UK, Europe and USA 2009/2010). Please get in touch if you have other applications on +44 (0) 1438 360 058.

I think of the Simpsons episode when everyone was trying to be like Bart, constantly shouting one liners that werent funny. Even Bart got sick of it. in all seriousness, this is the dumbest invention of all time.

They were so mad, the person she was texting to was apparently right behind me.

In a real theatre, I doubt it would work well. They already have something like this online... where you can group-watch some video content. I think it's already out?

As f'd up as the culture of this country is today, I'm sure it will be a hit. Give people a forum to show everyone else what a dipshit they are, and watch the line grow... I mean, just look at this website. I’ve been trying all day but cannot seem to think of a worse idea. As f’d up as the culture of this country is today, I’m sure it will be a hit.
