		<title> Google Fiber Project: Programming Key to Success (Featured Blog)</title>

		<description><![CDATA[Google has officially rolled out its long-touted Google Fiber Project showcasing what broadband should look and feel like to all users. Yes, it sets the new standard for broadband connections with a 1Gig speedster, over 100 times faster than current broadband offerings in the U.S. Not-withstanding, just speed will not be the determining success factor; the availability of competitive programming will become the deciding judgment in Google's move to tout reasonable costs to bundled broadband. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20120805_google_fiber_project_programming_key_to_success">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> Cloud Redundancy: How Amazon Should Repair Credibility (Featured Blog)</title>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20120703_cloud_redundancy_how_amazon_should_repair_credibility</link>
		<description><![CDATA[I'm curiously puzzled, but not entirely surprised, how a company such as Amazon (NASDAQ: GS) allowed its servers to be interrupted for any length of time due to severe storm damage in northern Virginia this past weekend. Companies using cloud servers are both expectant and dependent on being able to pull information from cloud sources to operate their businesses without interruption. After all, IT professionals have been preaching the security and reliability of the cloud for quite some time to manage large data off-site. Steps for Amazon to repair credibility should be transparent and swift. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20120703_cloud_redundancy_how_amazon_should_repair_credibility">More...</a>]]></description>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20120615_why_comcast_will_vehemently_fight_a_doj_investigation</link>
		<description><![CDATA[If your company becomes a huge dominate market player in both broadband and content delivery, scrutiny will come your way, like it or not. Comcast (NASDAQ: CMCSA) has been so successful in building both a content and delivery system to such a mass audience; it's beginning to look like former monopolies which grew unwanted investigations and break-ups in the 1980's. Remember AT&amp;T and the DOJ anti-trust decision to split the monopoly into smaller regional companies? <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20120615_why_comcast_will_vehemently_fight_a_doj_investigation">More...</a>]]></description>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20120606_hbo_go_forced_to_rethink_delivery_method</link>
		<description><![CDATA[The granddaddy of Pay TV programmers continues to create ground-breaking content especially with its new series "Veep". The edgy new sitcom produces uninterrupted and raunchy situations for a fictional Vice President who cannot get out of her own way, making it hilarious and award-winning. Yet, HBO GO is tied to Cable TV/Satellite economics by an umbilical cord that will be hard to break. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20120606_hbo_go_forced_to_rethink_delivery_method">More...</a>]]></description>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20120526_national_infrastructure_crisis_improving_distribution_metrics</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Not understanding the need for a newer, more economically sound, eco-friendly, and secure utilities infrastructure can be a (socio-economic disaster in the making), if top leaders of U.S. industry and government do not seek a solution to our historically aged telecommunications, power, and water delivery systems. The legacy systems in place are expensive, un-reliable, publically unsafe, and vulnerable to sabotage on both a large and small scale. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20120526_national_infrastructure_crisis_improving_distribution_metrics">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> Comcast Xfinity App Argument: Risking Divestiture of Cable or Broadband (Featured Blog)</title>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20120521_comcast_xfinity_app_risking_divestiture_cable_or_broadband</link>
		<description><![CDATA[This sounds extreme, but Comcast continues to push the boundaries in separation of its broadband service with its cable service. It is walking a thin line between being a broadband provider, offering fast Internet access to millions of subscribers, and treating its Xfinity Xbox 360 App as a priority over customers not having its cable service. Saying the Xbox 360 is just another set-top-box for its own customers is just a complex way of undermining Net Neutrality rules as defined by the FCC upon the companies purchase of NBCU. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20120521_comcast_xfinity_app_risking_divestiture_cable_or_broadband">More...</a>]]></description>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts0120426_sprint_fights_for_mobile_market_relevance</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Sprint's vision along with determined action says everything. They are fighting for mobile market relevance, thumbing their noses at detractors, moving beyond being relegated to a distant 3rd ranked carrier in a fast growing market. It's acquisition of the iPhone and agreement to spend $15.5 Billion over four years for the privilege has investors squawking bankruptcy sooner rather than later. First quarter earnings reveal that Dan Hesse's decision to purchase iPhones back in October 2011 is paying off in solid contracts. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts0120426_sprint_fights_for_mobile_market_relevance">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> TV Everywhere: Dangers in Being Second to Over-The-Top Competitors (Featured Blog)</title>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20120307_tv_everywhere_dangers_being_second_to_over_the_top_competitors</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Time Warner Cable and Comcast's intent in creating TV Everywhere conjured up a cable TV presence on the Internet where customers could browse and view huge varieties of content by just being a customer. That seemed a fairly simple and innovative concept... It was unique 3 years ago and promised to be exclusive to their clientele. But in reality the concept is much different than the original vision cable operators promoted. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20120307_tv_everywhere_dangers_being_second_to_over_the_top_competitors">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> Spectrum Crisis: Wireless Auctions Preferred Method (Featured Blog)</title>

		<link>https://circleid.com/postsspectrum_crisis_wireless_auctions_preferred_method</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Talk, conjecture and analysis have predicted a wireless spectrum crisis for years. The official word seems to project a culmination of dropped calls, slow loading of data, downright network access denials as impending by 2015. If so, then we should look at the current argument about how that additional spectrum can be disseminated to wireless carriers in a fair and balanced fashion. <a href="https://circleid.com/postsspectrum_crisis_wireless_auctions_preferred_method">More...</a>]]></description>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20120214_debilitating_cyber_attack_not_if_but_when</link>
		<description><![CDATA[We all know how easy it can be to ignore or underestimate the possibly, or even likelihood, of a terrorist attack; just remember what happened on 9-11. That seems to be just what the U.S. is doing when it comes to a possible Cyber-Attack, no not in other countries, but right here at home where targets like private sector companies, who provide vital economic and emergency services to our population using broadband infrastructure, and are woefully under-secured for such attacks. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20120214_debilitating_cyber_attack_not_if_but_when">More...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A Pew Home Broadband 2010 Summary reports in a sub-headline, a dramatic absence of continued growth in broadband adoption across the United States; while at the same time reporting increases in demographic adoption in a particular ethnic group. That sub-headline seems contradictory by indicating an overly dramatic slowing of adoption <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20100823_pews_broadband_home_2010_research_is_it_truly_representative">More...</a>]]></description>

From music, movies-(BluRay), e-books-(Kindle), computers-(software), mobile phones-(iPhone) and games; the umbrella of companies wanting to restrict access to its products continues to grow and become increasingly restrictive. <a href="https://circleid.com/postsdigital_rights_management_or_digital_restrictive_management">More...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Broadband; we want it, and we all depend on it; but where you live can impact access and adoption of the best that service providers have to offer. The FCC is looking to change both geographic and demographic limitations now plaguing the U.S. in the global race for broadband economic supremacy.
