This is basically a shout out to some of the traincompanies around the world. Yesterday I went by train from Hamburg to Stockholm, via Copenhagen and Malmø. It was an 8 hour trainride, but I decided to go for it, mainly because of the environmental issues, but also because I needed to work a bit.

1. hamburg – copenhagen, polish my presentation for disruptivemedia – no wifi not even in Denmark with my crappy 3g modem from telmore ( sorry guys it’s just not functional on trains – where I use it mostly)and structure the free ebook I am writing on Social Marketing a bit more

2. Copenhagen Malmø – no coverage by my 3g modem – grrr

3. Malmø – sthml – long trip – but they had free wifi on 1st class. You could buy wifi from 2nd class.

I got to do 5 hours of work on the train  – it was awesome – concentrated and I got to see Sweden as in “being in Sweden” not “flying over Sweden” – it was so enjoyable.

I love trains, and if you can create a workplace on the train, I think you guys have a winning strategy – especially if you have free GREAT wifi… You can take on the plane industry on shorter and longer distances – especially if you work on the train and track infrastructure internationally – so go do it =)

oh and trainpeople – give me a call I will explain more..
