Would you like to write about how to set up a mesh network
Hi p2p friends, We at Shareable are looking for someone to write a how-to article about how to set up a neighborhood mesh network so neighbors can share Internet access. Please contact me if you're interested or know someone who could do a good job at it. What's especially appreciated is someone who has actually set one up or knows someone who has that can be a source. The article would add to our library of around 80 how-to share guides including how to start a housing coop, a chicken coop, hold a free market, share a vegetable garden, start a farmers market and more: http://shareable.net/how-to-share Neal -- Neal Gorenflo | Publisher, http://Shareable.net <http://shareable.net/> | 415.867.0429
The following are not necessarily focused on 'mesh' networking, but are more generally addressing the shared property ownership of that physical infrastructure. On a similar note: I am forming a plan for an alternative organizational form (or business model) that solves the typical problem of power concentration during the growth of such endeavors which would apply across all types of sharing, not just internet access. ---- http://Frankston.com >>My current interest is moving beyond the 19th century concept of telecom to community owned infrastructure. This would add hundreds of billions of dollars to the US and much more value by creating opportunity for what we can't imagine. http://VillageTelco.org >>an easy-to-use, scalable, standards-based, wireless, local, do-it-yourself, telephone company toolkit http://TheConnective.net >>Together we can replace the telco's 'last mile' - the communication networks at the neighborhood level - with our own 'first mile' of free and open connectivity. http://netBlazr.com >>netBlazr customizes next-generation, but commercially tested, directional radios and networking equipment to deliver high-speed broadband through your office window. http://MuniNetworks.org >>Communities across America have set up community broadband networks to ensure access to affordable, fast networks. http://MediaPolicy.NewAmerica.net/publications/policy/from_the_digital_divid...
