Whistler's pioneering it. A good thing, or more "big brother is watching?"

Resort Technology Partners (RTP) is launching the first wireless app on the market to offer mobile ticketing for the ski/snowboard industry. In the future, skiers and snowboarders will be able to use their mobile phone as their ski pass. *** The free Whistler Blackcomb Live Powered by TELUS app will allow skiers and riders to track their runs using GPS, view trail maps, track the total vertical and distance they’ve travelled and their maximum speed, share their speeds and vertical, take photos and share them with friends via Twitter and Facebook, and view information and ads about features of the resort. ***
