Wireless Competes with Cable, DSL
Wireless Competes with Cable, DSL
01/05/2004 01:40 PMA handful of small companies are delivering wireless broadband access
to residents and businesses in and around Seattle: Most of the
companies use Wi-Fi to serve customers as far as five miles from an
antenna and they're charging around $30 a month for a 1.5 Mbps
service. These small operators are welcomed with open arms especially
by residents who aren't served by any other type of broadband access.
I'd love to see one of these startups expand and stay in business for
a while. As this article notes, these small broadband wireless
providers tend to come and go. The service providers targeting rural
areas may have more success in the future if the FCC decides to loosen
up power restrictions. Apparently the FCC is considering allowing
operators in rural areas to use higher transmit power levels than
operators in cities. In rural areas there's less potential for
interference and more need to allow signals to travel far because
people tend to be more spread out....

MCI For Sale
MCI For Sale
09/20/2004 01:24 PMIt looks like MCI's turnaround plan hasn't turned it around far
enough. Reports are out this morning that
the company is actively looking for a buyer. The company
pretty much stopped doing very much at all for an extended period of
time while they had to deal with all those pesky accounting scam
problems. Now that they have their head above water, they're
realizing that the tide has pushed them far, far away from where the
rest of the telecom world is. While the article speculates that they
may have trouble selling themselves, that might not be the case. The
now-out-of-bankrupt company has a (hopefully) clean set of books,
plenty of customers, and a network that many other companies already
drool over. The one area that they probably should just jettison,
though, is their consumer business -- or at least pull an
AT&T
move and focus only on VoIP. Of course, just like AT&T, MCI made
the bizarre move to
ditch their
wireless play when having a foot in the wireless market was
clearly in their long-term best interests.

Comic Art #6 on sale
Comic Art #6 on sale
09/21/2004 08:56 PM
Mark Frauenfelder:

I picked up issue #6 of
Comic Art magazine last week. What a treat.

There's a long
article about Seth (creator of
Palookaville) with plenty of
pictures, including a cardboard city he built (seen on the cover) and
a page from his sketchbook (which I scanned here -- incredible! Click
on thumb for enlargement). Unfortunately, no pictures of Seth. I've
only seen other people's drawings of Seth. (He's always wearing a
vintage hat and suit and chain smoking when people draw him.)
There's another
article about Virgil Partch (aka "VIP"), a delightfully wacky
cartoonist from the 40s and 50s. If you look closely at the hands on
VIP's characters, you'll notice that they have more than five fingers.
Sometimes they have as many as 12 fingers on a hand! He did this
because he used to work at Disney, where he was forced to draw
four-fingered characters. The extras fingers were his way of evening
the score.
The price of Comic Art is $9, which is a good deal, because it's
glossy color throughout.
