Do We Take Social Media and Connectivity for Granted?

The U.S. Department of State sponsors something called the International Visitor Leadership Program which is a program in which young leaders from various parts of the world meet with leaders in the U.S. on a particular topic.  I was among one of the people selected to meet with the young foreign leaders to discuss social […]

Comcast Data Usage Meter: What’s to Celebrate About Being a Year Late?

Comcast Data Usage Meter: What’s to Celebrate About Being a Year Late?

By Zoli Erdos on December 1, 2009

I admit I’m baffled.  If a major service provider imposes consumption caps without providing a way to measure consumption, then promises a metering tool and fails to deliver for a year, than what exactly is the reason to celebrate when finally they start limited testing a year late? But that’s exactly what’s happening: Comcast keeps […]

USA Leading the Broadband Connectivity Index.  Really?

USA Leading the Broadband Connectivity Index. Really?

By Zoli Erdos on February 23, 2009

On Broadband – Caps, Coverage and Speed

By Ben Kepes on October 3, 2008

My co-author Krish posted the other day specifically in reply to Comcasts 250Gb data cap. There's been some significant discussion about this move on the blogosphere – some liken it to a new plague that will bring the end of civilization as we know it.
