State of WiFi
[Archived in Entry]
[iBLOGthere4iM] This last week, I travelled to Victoria and got to experience the Internet away from my usual places. Here are my notes.
Some slightly related from Technorati and Google.
[VoIP and ENUM] The Opposite of Stickiness?: So I travelled to Geneva and then to Japan, using the mobile access ONLY in the evening, because I had WiFi access at the meetings anyway. So I spent 1000 Euros (in words: one thousand Euros) in two weeks.
[I Do What I Can] Portland: City of Wifi: Granted I haven’t travelled with a wi-fi-enabled computer in many airports, but from recent experience I can tell you that neither Sea-Tac nor Burbank provide free internet. Rather, they’ve entered into contracts with T-Mobile and other carriers for pay-for services.
[thinking with my fingers] Bitch PhD: 0 comments Wednesday, October 13, 2004 Internet Archive A link that's long overdue for mention here: The Internet Archive with the Wayback Machine. And here I found a link to Alice... enough to fill the worlds largest libraries, and max out the internet storage capacity. So it'
[Oregonlive.com] OregonLive.com: Tech Blog: No additional insight available on Todd Bishop's Microsoft Blog. (including surfing the Internet, text messaging and talking on the phone).
[Auscillate.com] Auscillate.com: It seemed to have too much dog-exposure because it yapped like a little mutt of some flavor as it parrot-waddled back and forth along its stand, lifting its feathers in a gesture Christian interpreted as wanting something, probably wanting to play. We called it "the Admiral" and it happened to live in a building with a small plaquard out front noting that Charlie Parker lived there between 1951 and 1955 (or so).
[Hobotraveler.com] Andy HoboTraveler.Com Travel Blog: WIFI WHAT IN TAIPEI: I can see a subway entrance from my window, plus I can also see a default wifi connection on my computer. There is a wifi in the Hostel, however there is no way to connect to any of them.
[Raindrop.msresearch.us] Shelly's Weblog: The Social Computing Symposium 2005 is coming up, April 25-26. We will see a lot of the same faces, but also some new. Rael Dornfest, Clay Shirky, and Elizabeth Churchill have already agreed to organize sessions, and Wendy Kellogg has agreed to do the wrap up again, she did a great (humorous) job last year. If anyone is still interested in applying to attend please see our call for position papers at: http://research.microsoft.com/workshops/SCS2005/. This is what the Symposium looked like last year, if you are curious: http://research.microsoft.com/workshops/SCS2004/. We'll be putting together the final agenda by March 11th, but it seems obvious from what I have seen so far that we'll probably be talking about the recent "folksonomy" tagging phenomenon, the role of social technologies for enabling collective action, and mobile/ubiquitous social technologies in our day to day lives. Naturally, we'll also discuss whatever else comes up over the course of the two days! The space where we are hosting the Symposium has more subdivisions than last year, which I hope will encourage more spontaneous break out conversations.
[Maymay.net] Maymay Media Weblog » Wi-Fi & Wireless: Thanks to NetStumbler I knew what channels the other guys were using, so I started broadcasting at the other end of the spectrum and suddenly my reception was loud and clear all over the apartment, and I would guess wherever they are broadcasting from too. The lesson in radio technology and Wi-Fi in general was extremely interesting and informative, but on a more practical note this is about being a good Wi-Fi neighbor and not competing for signal strength on the same channels.
