Alex sees problems ahead

Alex Scoble is using my last post as an example of what he thinks will be a growing problem with wireless gadgets, overcrowded airwaves. If my experience is at all common, I’d say it’s something to be concerned about. I don’t have that many wireless devices in my house going at once. At most a cell phone, my blackberry and the wireless LAN, maybe throw in the cordless landline phone and that’s the most extreme use of wireless at my house at any one time. Generally, so long as they don’t get too close together, I’m alright. I’m betting some of you have more. What have your experiences been?

RSS Traffic burdens publisher’s servers. -Not a big surprise, but definitely reason to turn off the aggregator every now and then. I generally only poll sites 2-3 times…

  • Anti-spyware

    Caught this mentioned in the Langa Letter. Grisoft, the company that has offered a “free for personal use” AVG anti-virus for years, is now offering an anti-spyware tool called ewido.
