Recently Geoff Daily of App-Rising and Christopher Mitchell of Institute for Local Self Reliance spoke on Geoff’s blog via VidChat about Open Networks.
The conversation starts with why this is important, what Open Networks are and goes into some of the more detailed issues. They do a good job of describing what an Open Network might mean for a resident, a community and provider perspective.
As they point out, the change in Administration indicates that there may be a greater interest in Open Networks on a national level so it makes sense to learn more about what they are, the advantages and the risks.
I think it would be helpful to anyone who was pretty new to the idea of Open Networks – regardless of their background knowledge of telecommunications.
