As an Technology Expert and an Engineer by trade, I sometimes come across an blog posting that I just have to give my 2 cents about.

I work from home, running my internet based businesses and had to come to realize that when my internet goes down, I go down. Hard.

Without the internet, my high-speed connection and fast upgraded computers none of the articles and ‘things’ you see on my site would be there. I need to be online 24/7 365 days of the year. I can’t work without it. I can’t keep up with my hobbies, or interests without the internet and my connection.

So when I read an blog post about this guys experience it rang a bell in me and I had to share it with you and the other readers.

So I left a Comment in response to a blog post at MIT Technology Review:

you can read the article and my comment by clicking on the link.

This is what I said:

Yes it is amazing that it all works in those moments between complete high-speed bliss and the shattering reality of when it comes to a screeching halt. No Connection.

Your internet connection and what systems you use to access is it, is as precarious as our water and power supplies, and just as fragile and prone to sudden death without much warning.

I for one used a standard connection like Comcast High-Speed cable, simply because if the cable goes out, something Major happened.

I don’t trust wireless providers to entrust my Internet connection to. Maybe when we have Satellite WiFi, then I will consider the future of wireless computing a little closer to the dream of unfettered Mobile Connectivity.
