telecom, technology and the occasional floobergeist

I’ve got an abundance of bits and pieces of canadian telecom and internet experience, and I am thrilled to be in a place in time when all is changing, technology is developing, and the status quo is being disrupted. 

Floobergeist is a word that is beginning to defy definition.  The more I roll that smooth pebble around, the more it becomes to mean. Floobergeist started out as the magic dust that turns dreams into ideas.  And then it began to encompass the zing that happens when you have conversations about those ideas. And now, it’s the whole evolution from dream to conversation, with each step improving the later and the former along the way.

Everyone aspires to good conversations. They can lead you to adventures you’ve never imagined, and to people you can twig with.

Let’s have a good conversation…

welcome.

let's go to the ex....

…. aww babyyy…
it’s been a zillion and a half years since i last went to the ex… but i managed to easily talk the wiz into it last night… turns out he’s a bit of a madman on the midway, playing games, shooting guns, games of chance… you name it, and somehow we managed to become laden down with varying types of prizes… :-)

i wonder what one has to do to become a carney - and then i wonder if people who work the midway at fairs are still called carneys? or is it carnies? hrm.  there were zillions of them… and you could certainly tell who was good at drawing the public to their booth, and who wasn’t :-)

i’d like to say that they’ve come a long way in 20 years.  but they haven’t.
