Broadband World 2008
Laurel Papworth talked about “Social Network Telecommunications - the Consumer as ISP” at the Broadband Australia 2008 summit.
Social networks will want always on, ambient, mobile connectivity so that they can take advantage of these services.
She mentioned Fon, Meraki, Open-Mesh and Free Australia Wireless.

We need more people, more often talking about these issues, so the industry (telco’s, isp’s,…) and government can’t no longer ignore this trend.
