Dial-a-toilet launched in China The world's first telephone toilet location system is to be launched in Shanghai next month. The move was announced at the First World Toilet Forum held in the Chinese city, reports City Express. Users dial a special number and the system tells them the location of the nearest public toilet. In the future, it will also give them information such as whether or not the conveniences are free of charge. Sun Guizhi, director of the Shanghai city cleaning office, said: "The system is mainly for tourists who come to the city for the first time."

Obviously, Location-based services at its best!
