I only realised it wasn't mine when I went for a pre-flight coffee. The security people only checked that I had a passport, and at the gate the flight attendant was doing training and the trainee was checking the tickets and the other staffers passports, not that they were in the same name (and yes, this was after 911). At Schiphol, again the check was for the passport, not the travel document name. On returning to the UK, all I had to do was fill in a form at passport control. Another time I lost my passport between the hotel and airport in Barcelona. It turned out if you went to the police station next to the airport,and filled in a A4 form, someone just rubber stamped it and the airport let you get on the plane with no check on your actual identity. They probably try harder these days.

Its almost 5 years since Backstage launched into the public at OpenTech05 by Ben Metcalfe. Since then a lot of things have happened and changed. Who would have thought the political parties would be shouting about open data in their manifesto's. Anyhow, we're looking to build quite a mash-up but using you and your experiences as the data.

Who would have thought the political parties would be shouting about open data in their manifesto's. Anyhow, we're looking to build quite a mash-up but using you and your experiences as the data. I won't go into details right now but you can expect that the data will also be available for yourselves to build on too.
