Casino Royale Loves Google
They showed Casino Royale, the latest Bond film, on the plane from Iceland to Amsterdam. There is this one part near the beginning of the film where the bad guys try to blow up a new super jet that is being unveiled at the Miami airport. Bond, James Bond, calls home to let them know that he thinks there's a bomb about go off at the airport. Then, there's this scene where the intelligence fellow back at MI6 is at his computer (with two monitors, no doubt) and he goes to Google. I'm not sure what he looks up, there's just a flash of Google results, some clicking, he arrives at a web page advertising the unveiling of the new super jet in Miami and has immediately uncovered the terrorist plot. Google: the world's new intelligence agency. Maybe in the next Bond film, they'll discover how to dismantle a bomb at Wikipedia.
