Hope You Had a Great Weekend, Too

Jun 12 2011

Friday night game! Hooow great does the top of this blog post look.

I accidentally end up here at least once a year.

This is the Jay’s star player, Marc Rzepczynski.

I’ve never stayed longer than 4 innings.

Yes it’s busy, but our feet need these, so much stomping.

Oh get THIS!

Stella Artois asked, “want a shot at hosting a party for 200 of your pals downtown?”. YA I do!

I’ll let you know in a post tomorrow what we have to make happen, but really, if anywhere a party for such thing should happen, it’s right downtown.

First time I’ve ironed in a year and half.

It’s nice to not have to drive, sometimes.

Took a break from the internet, my phone… I hope you do that, too. It’s important to disconnect.

Peel back the plastic and go inside.

The outfit far right I’ll wear again.

Note my fanny pack in the middle; here’s an old blog post – why I like fanny packs.

Left is a joke between Casie and I.

And here’s Casie and I at dinner last week.

For mostly my files: I had the nearest thing you can get to a perfect weekend.

Here’s to a great Monday and start to your week!! TTYT Keri xo

This Is More For Me Than You

Jun 12 2011

Very exciting to me.

This is from when I had an epiphany Wednesday June 8 on my balcony. You know when it all just clicks and a million hours of ruminating snap together? Fist pumped a couple times.

This is more for me than you; I’m documenting.

Blurred for OPSEC.

It’s no good if the internet has the same epiphany.

700 MHz Is All The Rage

Jun 5 2011

Tuesday I attended the Canadian Telecom Summitt 2011 #CTS11… Canada’s leading and largest telecommunications industry event.

Media sits at the back.

There were big-name keynote speeches all day, heads of Telus, HP, Rogers, Microsoft, Bell and CRTC people.

This is how I learned we got a new Minister of Industry two weeks ago, Christian Paradis.

Congratulations on your new job! Please protect Canada.

Made some new friends both IRL and online during it, hi guys! Keep in touch.

The most interesting topic of today was the 700 MHz Spectrum.

You can’t just go around blasting signals haphazardly, where and whenever you wish. Depending on what you’re doing, depends on which frequency you transmit/broadcast/communicate on.

Below shows (some) of the MHz spectrum and its allocations. See the band where I added the text, flanked by ‘mobile’ and ‘broadcasting’?

That’s the 700 MHz band, and it’s soon up for sale.

(See the full diagram here)

It was once owned by the broadcasters, and was used to broadcast analog TV.

Now the government owns it, and is about to sell it.

The auction will take place late 2012. The gentleman above is in charge of said auction.

It’s a powerful spectrum which can penetrate walls. This makes it ideal for broadband communication. It also has a great range and can travel long distances; one tower broadcasting 700 MHz can cover 20 miles.

Think of it like… it’s the Ferrari of spectrums.

Tweets and fun facts from today.

Many of the talks re-inforced my theory about how the future internet will be designed, I talk about it in my video, About UBB – Usage Based Billing, fast-forward to 0:31.

Then I invited myself to the stage.
