MacDonnell Burger Post Service?

In 2006, we may see a lot of changes. It may start with something odd for our minds.

According to information, 350-Year Monopoly Ends for Britain's Royal Mail, that means some other corporations can develop postal services. Of course, we still do not know if any corporation would have the interest to invest.

If one have to provide postal services, the most difficult part is the setting up of hundreds if not thousands of stations in every country. So the most likely candidate would be MacDonnell.

It may be a good marketing idea for those who need to post and have their breakfast at a single spot. A free breakfast for any company who prefer to collect the mails from MacDonnell would be a great marketing idea. Certainly, there will be a lot of promotion ideas if such assumption would materialized.

Perhaps, we may see Microsoft Theatres, Google VoIP Telephone Services, Intel Automatic Home Appliances, iPod Online Medical Attendance etc. within a few years.

With the development of digital technology, we have already seen many cross industries movement, Sony digital camera for example. Remember that there is no rule to fix the product of any corporation. With OEM, ODM etc., it is so easy to have new product lines without the hardship to build the production facilities. Financial and marketing domination would be the only factors.

Will it be difficult to adapt? No, we can just forget what we had before and to accept what will be will be. That is just similar to changing from typewriter to PC, from VHS to DVD, from film to CMOS.
