Happy Birthday to me!

It’s my birthday today!  I turn 25, omg a quarter of a century.  I need to finish college, gawd.

In other news, I saw that Intel actually released a wi-fi router thats range stretches 60 miles.   Holy crap

According to them, they have trouble due to the curvature of the earth in order to stretch it further.  Intel has installed and tested it in Panama, India, Vietnam and South Africa.  The idea behind it is to stretch out internet networks from heavily populated urban areas to more spaced out rural areas.  A very nice idea indeed, however I’d probably end up using it to get wireless internet on road trips.  =D

Still, that’s pretty amazing.  The speed isn’t spectacular, somewhere around 5 megabits per second, but at the rate technology advances, I could see that expanding in the very near future.  Anyhow, I’m off to catch a dinner for my birthday!
