Most of what they've done I've seen no value in. However, a few months ago, I saw a tweet that said a flight leaving Long Beach for San Francisco in 5 hours still had 20 available seats and those seats would be sold for $10 on a first come/first serve basis. Approximately 1 hour later came a second tweet from JB saying the flight was sold out. This was the most interesting commercial use I've seen thus far. Mark:
