  1. “Your Data may be used against you in a court of law….”

    Hello and thanks for reading/watching…. I think most of us spent a fair amount of time (maybe too much, actually) watching TV cop shows growing up.  Regardless of the show, one phrase was drilled into our heads on just about every one….”You have the right to remain silent”.  Whether it was from also watching the […]

  2. OTT costing carriers billions. How much can M2M help?

    Larry Bellehumeur | December 4, 2014 I always found it kind of ironic that cellular network providers are referred to as “carriers”.  For most of us, we grew up with our local postal delivery person being called “a letter carrier”.  The reason I find it ironic is that carriers (of the cellular kind), who offer […]

  3. **UPDATED** Top 10 Business Reasons to Deploy an IoT Solution

    Watch our new Vlog post on youtube! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iDKAcd4_ao As someone who grew up in the 1980’s, I was a fan of David Letterman.  One of his favourite bits was his nightly Top 10 list.  The list was usually topical in nature and it brought some laughter to justify staying up that late.  Well, I can’t […]

  4. When you are the product, you can’t expect privacy…

    **As a disclosure, I have been a Facebook shareholder since just after it went public** I think we all have grown accustom to a certain level of service… you don’t want your food served cold, you expect the dry cleaner to remove the stain and you expect delivery guys not to drag mud into your […]

  5. Why Technology Is Causing Some Salespeople To Lose Their ‘Dogfighting Skills’

    Larry Bellehumeur | March 19th, 2018 Yes, I need help.  I am quoting Top Gun for about the 500th time in one of my blogs.  However, in my defence, this reference is actually justified, at least in my narrowly-focused mind.   In the movie, they mentioned how the idea of Top Gun was created to […]

  6. Top 10 Company Departments for Prime IoT Gains

    By: Larry Bellehumeur | Feb. 26th, 2018 Based on the huge popularity of my last post, Top 10 business reasons to deploy an IoT Solution, we decided to do another Top 10 list. Traditionally, “SCADA” solutions (what we used to call IoT many years ago) were deployed by the Operations team and there was little, […]

  7. Living in a world of data, but without facts...

    Quick….how many posts do you think Facebook did per hour on average back in 2015?  How many recipes, pictures of desserts and rants about Game of Thrones were posted? If you are like me, you may be startled when you hear that it was up to 250 million per hour! But, maybe I shouldn’t be…there are […]

  8. Why few Ferrari owners buy tires at Walmart and how this relates to M2M

    OK, as a disclosure, I do not own a Ferrari (I say that with just a bit of a ‘sigh’), so I am not part of that elite group.  As a fan of cars, I have always appreciated both the performance and styling of the Prancing Horse.  One of the downsides to owning such a […]

  9. Do we really need a smart kitchen that bad?

    A few years back, I made the decision to become healthier.  As part of this change, I had to learn how to cook.  The reason is simple….as healthy as today’s take-out / pre-prepared meals claim to be, they still often contain things that go against the idea of eating healthy (namely excessive salt and fat, which […]

  10. Why is IoT so far off-target so far?

    If you’ve seen a presentation that I have given over the past couple of years, you may have seen me reference “the three phases of Wireless”.  It pretty much echoes the three phases of the Internet, but with more of a wireless spin.   During the first phase, it was all about voice.  In the […]
