The running man

Yesterday was the biggest run ever. Not the fastest mind you but definately the longest. 24km over 2.5 hours. It actually felt like i was getting ready for a marathon for the first time.
Now I need to get up and go for another run tonight. This one is 10 km and it is meant to be fast.

Wireless for all!!

I went to a broadband discussion the other night. one of the products discussed there was Wireless broadband. Not the silly hotspots or home networking. Not the dependence on GPRS that is just slow and expensive.

This is wireless access with (potentially) the same style of coverage as a mobile phone. I feel like I saw the future. It was Science fiction made real and it was exciting. It is how I felt the first time that I saw the speed of a cable connection. Something like this takes away the issue of fixed location and allows me to use the internet where ever i have a device that can recieve.

This is where it paralells the mobile phone growth pattern. The danger is that it is a proprietary design and may get killed by the WiFi tech that is currently filling the market.

I think that I will contact the CTO of the company for more information.
