GPS devices on flights? Maybe {Gadling}
May 8th 2011 1:44PM It might be interested to see what devices work and which don't. A number of them will stop displaying data if it appears that the device is traveling at more than a certain speed -- to keep them from being used by pilots aboard airplanes, since the majority of consumer-available devices are not approved for cockpit use by the FAA.
How to deal with jetlag {Gadling}
Dec 29th 2009 12:16PM I also have to strongly disagree with the suggestion that you sleep during the day if you're tired and in a new time zone, and that you stay up 'til the wee hours if you can't sleep at night. It's possibly the *worst* thing to do, in fact: You'll make sure that your body does not acclimate to the offset pattern of light & dark. Instead, get to sleep when local time says go to sleep (*don't* hit the bars until 4am!) and try to stay awake during the day.

Five ways to avoid a chatty passenger {Gadling}
Oct 1st 2009 11:32AM Why is "be direct" last on the list, and why be indirect at all? It IS possible to politely tell someone that you're not in the mood to talk -- and not play games by looking preoccupied (doing things that you didn't want to do in the first place, no less), acting like a terse jerk (by only giving short answers) or hiding in plain sight with your magazine.
This article makes no sense to me.
