Blockbuster getting Green, whether they know it or not...

3 comments

Okay, I don't know much at all about Blockbuster's GQ (Green Quotient), but their new online movie service can't be bad for the environment:

"Blockbuster Launches Internet Movie Downloads"

This is a prime example of how IT is making the Green Revolution possible.

By the way, I know Blockbuster isn't the first to offer this service, but they're so damn big that anything they do to cut down on auto travel can have a huge positive impact. Imagine no trips to the video store and no mail trucks carrying your DVD's to your mailbox.

So, what other items/activities in your life could be obtained/performed online, thus eliminating auto travel? Correspondence has long moved to e-mail and Facebook. You can renew driver's licenses and do other government-related crap online. I read the NY Times online. What hasn't been thought of yet?
