ENN is not just a superdoc on Everything - it is also the Elevator News Network, a Canadian company that pipes news tidbits and advertising in to elevators in skyscrapers in (so far) 3 cities: Vancouver, Calgary, and Toronto. Talk about a captive audience. They install flat screens in a top corner of the elevator and run through a 20 minute or so loop of content, updated throughout the day. Some bicycle couriers like to laugh at how all the suits stare at it like zombies looking for a market update, but quite frankly I'm glad they're staring blankly at the screen and not trying to make smalltalk with me. 36 floors is a long ride down, and "some weather out, hey" only goes so far. ENN's website is www.enn.net.
