Uber in Space is it PHie in the Sky ?
Today I was made aware of a statement on twitter that Uber were making plans to operate a global office, cloud based.
The original Tweet came from @arrestinguber, the user name of Russel Howard, an ex London Riot Cop.
He emigrated to Australia and becam a Hire car driver there. His story follows, as well as the link from twitter.
The idea when I first got wind of it made me realise how easy it would be. Uber would only have to rent space on any of the communication satellites up there. thousands of companies can share one satellite, one over the UK called Hotbird 13e shows TV from all over the world, it is mainly the home of all those seedy porno channels, I do not watch them myself, but I am told most Unite members do.
Looking at the feasibility of this I discovered one about to launch next month in Malaya.
The story of Uber copying Malaya might be just a 'duck farting' but I doubt it. I feel Satellite offices may have a fresh meaning pretty soon.

The centralised taxi service system, which will be implemented in January, will track taxi driver locations using satellite technology and direct the nearest taxi to a waiting customer.
