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.

Google's Android Coming in October

It's been a long time coming, but it sounds like Google Phones might soon be shipping....
Different from the iPhone, which is a fine thing... Google may have found the iPhone's Achilles' Heel with the ability for folks to install *any* application they want on their device. Nothing is locked down, locked out or locked up.
With the ability to go wireless or wi-fi, this could actually be a phone I would consider as a personal phone. That being said, who knows if it will really come to Canada. And if it comes, could the carrier lock it up tigher than a drum? I wonder if Google's going to have some serious contract negotiations to contend with north of the border....
