DemRepub_Sept 2008.pngFor once there is some bi-partisan agreement on an issue.  :-)

Both Sen. McCain and Sen. Obama have used their campaign resources to get their supporters to help that Gulf Coast region in need.


Both have used text messaging to get the word out.

Technology is changing the world politics too.

Good to see that in times of crisis there is no time for politics.

With Hurricane Gustav bearing down on the Gulf Coast the need to communicate could not be greater.


The major providers of cell phone service seem to have learned from Hurricane Katrina, and are prepared this time to keep the flow of information going throughout the storm.


Just keep all of the folks in the Gulf Coast region in your prayers.

Thumbnail image for Thumbnail image for TechTerm_Image 2008.pngSomeone asked me, "What in the world does 3G mean?

They told me, "You're TechnicalJones, What's the deal?"  :-)

Ok, here's the deal!  Hope it makes your day!  :-)



LJJ_TechTerms_3.JPGDefinition:  3G refers to the third generation of developments in wireless technology, especially mobile communications.

The third generation, as its name suggests, follows the first generation (1G) and second generation (2G) in wireless communications.

3G includes capabilities and features such as:

1.  Enhanced multimedia (voice, data, video, and remote control);

2.  Usability on all popular modes (cellular telephone, e-mail, paging, fax,     videoconferencing, and Web browsing).

3.  Broad bandwidth and high speed (upwards of 2 Mbps).

4.  Roaming capability throughout Europe, Japan, and North America.

While 3G is generally considered applicable mainly to mobile wireless, it is also relevant to fixed wireless and portable wireless.

3G offers the potential to keep people connected at all times and in all places.
