Jonathan Schwartz's Weblog : Weblog

Jonathan Schwartz's Weblog : Weblog: "And then there's what Disney's up to, passing out trackable stuffed dolls to kids in their theme parks, so parents can follow them (as Scott would say, 'that's not Big Brother, that's Dad...'). By tracking clusters of dolls, the operator can tell parents how long the lines are for a ride, and determine where to place concession stands (in front of waiting patrons, of course)"

I am not sure if this is a good idea or a bad idea. I like the upside for a parent, but I don't know if I like Disney tracking my kids.
