I've been to WDW too many times. One of the best rides at the theme park is Space Mountain - a roller coaster in complete darkness. Last week it was busted for about an hour and they forgot to shut down the commuter rail type ride that goes through the middle of Space Mountain. The lights were on and I snapped a couple of photos of the mystery inside.
Today I had my first meeting with the founders of Trip Door, they are a TechStars company and I am their assigned mentor (not sure how happy they are about that). Their idea is to create a web service that allows frequent flyers to manage their award miles from all carriers, view available award travel seats and book award tickets all online. I think this is a brilliant idea since my wife, Renee, hates to deal with airline call centers (I, however, love talking to people on the phone for hours on end getting nowhere). They have some challenges, as do all startups, like convincing the airlines to open up their databases to such a service but they also have some interesting angles to get them to the promise land.
I'm really looking forward to working with Krista, Austin, Elliot and Nathan on their cool new business. Go get 'em!
