If you are a small company you have an ability to grow and improve as adrenaline is working. Many large companies due to inertia lose their core skills; because they become complacent. They shrug off customers and responsibilities. They soon become careless and slovenly, Then they start stepping on others toes.


Soon they seem to only struggle to maintain their virtual positions by various adjustments. Later corruption and red tape sets in. The small company remains agile, attentive and proactive and slowly gets better market share, but they have the disadvantage of cash flow and contacts.

The conclusion is big and small both are at par. The Big ones have to consolidate, reform, hive off and be sensible. The Small ones has to be ever look out for opportunities left open. There are good sensible big corporations who know this, they work with a sense of social responsibility, try to become like them, for they know the secret to be big and agile.

Necessity is the Mother of Invention. Fortuity is the Father of Innovation.

When we send a snail mail or receive them, there is not much of spam involved. This is because of the cost of the postage stamp and cover. Even then some unwanted snail mail may come in rarely.



 The cost of sending an e-mail should fall on the sender, not the receiver or the mail transport system. A way - more like 100 free sending per day, above that nominal charges. This may not work well as most of this spam is sent unconventionally. If routers and servers get smart, they can block spam, then it may be like charging a Toll on the Data Highway. That may choke the net for normal users.


So a new communications method called e-Gram. This imposes the cost on the sender, it offers protection to the receiver and does not clog the net.

When i send an e-Gram, it is a string of not more than 24 characters which is the subject or summary, only text, no media. 24 ASCII characters.

Example -

Quotation for 20 Nos. of Storage Bins Q2341

is the e-Gram sent to sam.acme.tel - where sam is the name and acme the firm, service provider or home account.

Only 24 letters and no media (embedded or attached) is sent, so the transit cost and bandwidth reduced.

When i sent this e-Gram, it created a secure page on my host with the full letter and media. This page is protected and can only be seen by a browser or client when authenticated or logged in.

When the person gets the e-Gram, his spam filters after checking the subject and sender may mark it clean. When he clicks on the more link, the private page is visited at my host/provider. The link has the authentication for that page. If it looks like spam, he will not click the more link.

As only e-Grams move from server to server, the bandwidth and storage load is less. Only valid e-Grams are visited. This way Media and Executables can never be sent by an e-Gram. The person who accidentally visits a spam e-Gram will not download any media or binary, as this will need his action.

The eGram Client can have have a two Inbox system. One Green Inbox for known, verified or approved senders. Another Red Inbox for Unknown Senders.

Grid computing among servers is fine. But the concept of networking unused computers and using that for crunching large numbers is not practical. This is mainly because it is not green (power consumption). Such ideas are not economical for the purpose served. Not Sustainable.


What we need is like a Class AB Audio Amplifier. Deliver Power on demand, or scale up/down (hardware switching) on demand, efficiently. This is only possible in client-server systems. Cloud Computing is the way. The clients are Low Power Multi-Media Terminals. The Modules in the Servers can turn on, as demand increases, as more people login or compute more.


What i feel, think or understand. May not be practical or implementable today. May free home user from lot of admin tasks. Web applications and Services have made it possible already to some extent. When user has only the LCD Monitor and Keyboard to manage, No OS or updates or even Virus.

Let me assume the currency is in blips and a Cloudlet is owned by a SSP - Software Services Provider. He whips out a virtual pc on the cloudlet and let you use it. The power of a super computer can be accessed on the Tablet or Netbook in your Knapsack.

Information or concept is for thinking and learning, educate and entertain, some are already being used and applied in the web. Some ideas are to promote Tangential Thinking, this enables you to flex the tendons of your brain; who knows, one day you may develop a cerebral six pack

The www is always hungry for more, the present infrastructure of iridium could be used to enhance performance of www, it may not make profits but it will sure help in the maintenance and coordination of servers and speed up the web which may benefit all in general.




I heard that iridium satellites may be brought down. It must be fun putting it up on the first place and then bringing it down, electronic stuff will on their own stop after some time, so why bring it down, and when it is still up there in the sky why not use it for some other purpose than intended, that way you can save the cost of bringing it down !


It can help in coordinating the databases of domains for look up, as this is growing every day it will help if the broadcasts for IP Address search is separate so as to free the servers for other tasks, broadcasts can be a separate mega thread thru iridium.
It can help in networking large servers separately to ensure coordination on and sharing of critical information, instant updates, tables, databases of web, virus alerts, breakdowns, it can help reduce the chaos, as the net is at the knee of its growth.

The iridium will also be useful in distributing traffic based on priorities, the downloading of an mp3 file may prevent a small text file warning of natural disaster or war (for which the early web was intended), the iridium network could assign priorities to paths and data as they originate.

In short it means you can make iridium the spiderman of the world wide web, that way iridium can link only the huge servers and nodes to monitor, regulate, and maintain traffic in a synchronous and systematic manner.

Lastly remember a big web should have a big spider.
