General Comments

If the future of the Internet means anything. If wireless technology is something you want to understand. This book is a full course in the central technology, global positions, and design of the application and content that is about to dominate our wireless Internet world. The book is for engineers, business developers, an artists who want to know the principles, success stories and insights into wireless architecture. A complete model for devices, networks, and applications is detailed in the book. The book is the essential material used to teach classes for companies. Although it is the sum of everything I heard and learned on the subject, the truth is I wrote it for myself - evidenced by its unique index for definition and fast retrieval. It has been very helpful in bringing my team and new employees up to speed - Mark Beaulieu, 2006.

The InformIT essays written shortly after publication summarize parts of the book.

Onto the Next

Since publishing WIAA in 2002, my career has advanced. Always interested in media, new technology and its effects. Here is my running blog and here are some essays.

Frequency of Media. Advances on the original thesis. (WIAA p.467)

1G - 6G Chart of wireless generations through 2040.

Virtues of the new IP media. Where the wireless internet is taking us.

Jeff Jarvis manifesto as I heard it a VON. More at his website, buzzmachine.

End game

Some consideration for a "Media for Engineers and Artists" web center. A rendezvous. Where heritage meets exploration.

Wireless Mythology Art Exhibit still a good idea.
