Nashville Flood: State Of The Internet Infrastructure

The Nashville Technology Council has e-mailed members in the community about the state of the city’s Internet infrastructure, which has been considerably taxed since the historic flooding occurred.

      Wish I'd seen your earlier photos of the cases actually going through the paint job — would have posted sooner.

    All philippine ISPs shoud interconnect and more Filipinos should patronize local content hosted on Philippine servers with less reliance on outgoing traffic . That;s the fastest way to speed up the local internet in my book. I think Yahoo got it wrong, the number one online activity of Filipinos today is using Facebook. Facebook is the #1 site in terms of traffic and time spent online.

    There are so many things that floods affect. It is not just the damage that it does to your property but things that you use and services that you use.

    I wonder if these cases are plastic or metal. The original ones are nice to touch and resistant. 50 dollars aren't much for a new phone case, and it would be nice if you can manufacture other smart phone case types.

    It's super cool your campaign. One of three smartphones is IPhone, 50 dollars aren't much, so the chances selling all those cases are pretty big. It would be nice to produce even for the other smartphones this type of cases. I don't know your policies, but I would like to pay something for Music City Rising another smartphone case.
