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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

While I never actually did it, most of my friends delivered food as a job at some point in their high school / college life.  I mean, it wasn’t exactly the hardest job to do and if you had the right route, it could actually be reasonably lucrative thanks to some generous gratuities. One of […]

I feel old.  Not because my eyes are going and my body is creaking (I will leave those complaints to my business partner, Richard Hobbs).  I feel old because I was around in this space BEFORE 1G came out.  Now, we’re hearing more and more about the upcoming launch of 5G… And….the speeds are incredible.  […]
