First NBN FttN in Australia? There is also a news item which seems to suggest Malcolm Turnbull built the NBN (perhaps by waving his hands, parting the soil for the fibre, like a latter day Moses): "Malcolm Turnbull's NBN gets Newcastle 'hooked'", (David Ramli, AFR, Sep 21 2015): http://www.afr.com/technology/malcolm-turnbulls-nbn-gets-newcastle-hooked-20150908-gjhk6c And an even sillier version "Fast download with NBN trial ‘unbelievable’" (MATTHEW KELLY, Herald, Sept. 20, 2015): http://www.theherald.com.au/story/3361487/fast-download-with-nbn-trial-unbelievable/ It is good to know that billions have been invested so Australians can quickly download episodes of Game of Thrones and send payment for it overseas. ;-) Perhaps we might consider using the NBN for something productive, like creating some content, or education? -- Tom Worthington FACS CP, TomW Communications Pty Ltd. t: 0419496150 The Higher Education Whisperer http://blog.highereducationwhisperer.com/ PO Box 13, Belconnen ACT 2617, Australia http://www.tomw.net.au Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation Adjunct Senior Lecturer, Research School of Computer Science, Australian National University http://cs.anu.edu.au/courses/COMP7310/ _______________________________________________ Link mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
