Cambodian connectivity
I just got back from Siam Reap, Cambodia this morning. Went on a short visit to the ancient temples of Angkor Wat and the many others in the same area. But since this blog isn’t about my travels, let me just quickly note a few Internet “trends” I noticed while walking the tourist town of Siam Reap:
- Internet access is a service for tourists, like a post office of sorts. I didn’t see a single local using a computer.
- Intellectual property is nothing! The symbol for Internet is the Microsoft IE logo. I noticed one with Google and Yahoo too. No Apple?
- With all this buzz about Twitter, that could possibly be a good leap frog entry point for these folks since cellular coverage is good, even out at the temples.
If you really want to see what I did there, here’s the Flickr set.
