I attended the annual Arlington Million this past weekend. For those of you that didn't know, its a huge event at the local horse racetrack in Arlington Heights. Being an Interactive Media Design major, one thing that caught my attention was the way to place bets. Traditionally, to bet you would go to a person, tell them the bet details and they would give you a ticket... I think. Anyway, now they use touch screen kiosks to place bets. There are probably hundreds conveniently stationed throughout the place. You just put in money (they even accept $100 bills), place bets, print your ticket and sit back to lose your money...how convenient.
