What Hacker News says?
"You’ll find me sitting in the middle seat, all the way in the back, next to the toilets, but smiling the whole way because that seat was ridiciculously cheap or even free!" It's the premise for the travel blog. The author describes it as "the worst possible seat in economy class", but at least it's cheap! http://www.seat31b.com/why-another-travel-blog/
