Workshop On the Future

Well sort of... I forgot to mention that I participated in a workshop on Wednesday, February 25th with Bob Pepper (Office of Strategic Planning) and Ed Thomas (Office of Engineering and Technology) at the annual conference of the California Telephone Association. A lot of discussion of broadband and various ways to migrate to technology (especially wireless) that could more effectively provide data services to consumers in rural service areas. It was very interesting and although the flight from one coast to the other is never a trip I enjoy, it was nice to spend a few minutes in Monterey, California (even if most of those minutes were inside windowless conference rooms). UPDATE: Here is a link to a newsletter article on the workshop.
