If you company does not offer an application program interface(API) within 10 years, your business will fail.
They who understands and knows how to manipulate the APIs around their world, will not be in charge of their reality.

You know who they are; and if you don’t…..😁
One of my flaws is that I tend to keep my ideas secret, in the strange notion that only I can pull them of and to share them will negate the future opportunities for fame and fortune. I won’t get into the excuses that stopped me from sharing what gifts, ideas and dreams that I have been brought here to share. The only thing to know is that 2015 and forward is when I will “release the Kraken” !
Visiting folks in Antigua posed a number of problems that knew I of for along time, but have solved differently based on my need for access to the Interwebs. On this trip I couldn’t count on Wifi at certain places, since I was relatively on the go.
Solution : A cheap android with a data plan that I could create I Wifi hotspot(tethering). It came up to $203 ECD ($180 for device; $20 for voice; $13 for 1GB/24 hours for data). About $75 USD.
The device is Alcatel Pop C2
The service is with LIME. Since I have 6+ hour layover in Dominica, I can breeth easier that I can still be connected to the Grid.
Assuming I max out my 1GB per day, I am looking at $5 per day. Rest of my trip will cost me $30 USD.
Was able to skype from my Sprint HTC with it.
More than worth it for the freedom to move around. Next trip will be less as I will have the device already.
If anyone wants more details, like on FB and Fav on Twitter.

After a lot of research, I discovered in a forum that the specific SCSI card was prone to bulging capacitors. Obviously the dust doesn’t help.
So being the true geek that I am, I went searching through my pile and found the specific replacement capacitors and heated up my soldering iron.

With over 10 years of experience as an IT professional who moves around, I have had my share of tools to allow me to increase my productivity. Here is a snapshot of what I use now. And like everything in my field, it changes.
