What can digital learn from gas stations?

New Generation Mobile Messaging Engagement. Using your analogy, a Convenience Superstore in the message inbox, personalised by the consumer, where they are prompted to experience the very best Rich Media Propositions their preferred brands have to offer.

I remember also pubs that sold only beer and shops that closed Wednesday, Saturday afternoons and all day Sunday. However in Ireland in the 70's it used to be the case that many pubs also had shops or vice versa and were open every day until late.

A bit like wheels on suit cases. (thanks Alan Cochrane,comedian for that last bit).
