Cui bono? The English, at least the old-fashioned sangfroid Oxbridge types love to ask that. It means (loosely) "To whose benefit?" or, "Who Wins?" That's the question to ask in the very big news that Southwest Airlines has signed its first big international deal, a code-share with Canada's WestJet. They're both fine airlines, even though WestJet is slightly more of a hybrid than Southwest.
But if you look at a route map, you have to wonder what's in it for Dallas-based Southwest. Yes, some Southwest flyers will want to go to Canada in the summer, but to our aged eyes it would seem that the prime beneficiary is WestJet, based out there on the prairies of Alberta.
The Calgary-based carrier adds a huge amount of capacity into the warm weather spots that the snowbirds of the Great White North like in colder months (which in Canada are basically September through April). On the other hand, this may be a very good testing ground for Southwest to try out its new software upgrades that chief executive Gary Kelly says will enable multiple code-shares. And it does something about Southwest's always lagging load factors: just gtting more people on board may aid an airline that typically fills just 73% or 74% of its seats when the industry average is as much as seven or eight percentage points higher.
Sorry for the huge review, but I'm really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it's the right choice for you.
Hey how are you doing? I just wanted to stop by and say that it's been a pleasure reading your blog. I have bookmarked your website so that I can come back & read more in the future as well. plz do keep up the quality writing
i was reading throught some of the posts and i identify them to be plumb interesting. abject my english is not exaclty the bloody best. would there be anyway to transalte this into my argot, spanish. it would really assist me a lot. since i could approach the english interaction to the spanish language.

You did the logo. I want to do something like that.
Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
This was definitely an excellent and interesting piece of content. But I'm just having trouble getting this web site to show up correctly with my current chrome web browser, any thought for what might be wrong???
