Hotels and Technology are leading us
Pornography web sites had been the leading champions of online technology with e-commerce, pop-up advertising, security and etc.
Hotels, apparently, are now an industry leading in the use of technology also. Wireless (or wired) broadband internet access was one wave. USA Today is reporting that Radisson Hotels & Resorts this week starts allowing guests to check in via the Internet up to a week before arrival.
In December, Hilton launches advance Web check-in at 2,216 hotels across all brands, including Doubletree, Embassy Suites, Hampton Inn and Hilton Garden Inn.
If all goes as planned, Radisson and Hilton guests who check in over the Web will be able to flash identification or a printout of their room confirmation at the front desk.
