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.

Wireless Number Portability Pushes New Bell Incentives

March 02, 2007  /  jules kivell

Interesting news today out of the Globe and Mail - Bell is finally doing something interesting in terms of stemming what could be some significant churn when wireless number portability turns up next week. For $10/month you can call any bell number, wireless or wireline, and it doesn't eat your monthly mobility minutes. I like it.
