This LAN is your LAN

Have you ever wondered what socialist songwriter Woodie Guthrie would have thought of wireless technology? No? Me neither.
Huh. Well, thankfully, in this modern era, we have bloggers willing to think these things through for us. A taste:
“This LAN is your LAN, this LAN is my LAN
From the mobile IP, to the wireless tri-band
From the manual keying, to the content filtering,
This LAN was made for you and me.”
For the rest, go here. It’s rather catchy, I’ve got to say…

When I’m travelling for IT PRO — and lately that’s happened a lot — I just assume my mobile phone will know where it is and what time it is… but it doesn’t.
I went to Malta a few weeks back, for a NetEvents event. As our plane taxied up to Malta International (with me peering out the window, giddy about palm trees), I turned my mobile phone back on.
Chiming its happy little
