Content From BWIA Calendar Ported In

In preparation for resuming writing full time about Broadband Wireless Internet Access (BWIA), I'm "clearing the decks" in my blogging system (Typepad) of the old "didn't quite launch" blogs such as BWIA Calendar that are now just a productivity sink to work around. The description was Events in the Broadband Wireless Internet Access / WiMAX Industry, with emphasis on trade shows and training events.

Some of these blogs like BWIA Calendar are a slog to import (it's done by hand - lots of cut and paste), but I think it's important to do because there's a lot of good content there. BWIA Calendar mentions major BWIA-related events from 2006 through 2008. I doubt that information exists anywhere else in the world now.

All articles ported in from BWIA Calendar  Also accessible from the "Content from BWIA Calendar" link in Archives.

Background:
In my writing (circa 1997 - 2010 or so) I painted with a very big brush in covering what I considered to be BWIA, from Wi-Fi Hotspots, to Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPS) to wireless telephony carriers (cellcos), and sometimes satellite. I've even written stories about fiber and copper networks when there was a tie-in with BWIA.

But, often I heard from readers who said "Why are you writing about X - that's not the stuff I want to read about - why don't you write more of the stuff I want to read about?". 

What I took from that feedback is that (at least then) BWIA wasn't enough of a niche... I needed to further "nich-ify" my writing. The WISPs didn't want to read about satellite. The cellcos didn't want to read about WISPs.

That was the theory, anyway. I decided I would self-federate a family of blogs and spend a few hours each month creating content for each of them, and schedule the posts out for one or two per week. That didn't quite work out :-)

So now I'm porting the small amounts of content from those "nichey" blogs into BWIA News, deleting those old blogs. BWIA News is my primary blog.

Thanks for reading!

BWIA-related Events for 2008

This is an article from a now-retired blog of mine called Broadband Wireless Internet Access (BWIA) Calendar. It was actually published on 2021-03-22, but inserted into this blog for 2008-03-04 (the date of the last update).

Please Note:

As I explained in 73, and Thanks For All The Fish, I will no longer be writing very much about BWIA, including here on BWIA / WiMAX Calendar.

I may... solely at my discretion... and available time... continue to update BWIA / WiMAX Calendar as I discover new BWIA / WiMAX events, or updated information on listed BWIA / WiMAX events. But if I do, it will be sporadic at best, so it would be best to consider the information presented below to be "no longer being maintained".

We intend for Broadband Wireless Internet Access Calendar to be the most up-to-date, comprehensive, publicly-accessible list of events related to Broadband Wireless Internet Access, WiMAX, outdoor Wi-Fi, and cellular broadband systems.

  • About Steve Stroh

    In 1996, I was fascinated to discover that providing Internet Access via license-exempt wireless technologies was not only possible, but being done routinely by a small band of pioneering Internet Service Providers.

    By mid-1997, I was writing professionally about Broadband Wireless Internet Access (BWIA) as a monthly columnist in Boardwatch Magazine.

    In 2000, I began writing about BWIA full time in my own blogs, for numerous other publications, and my own subscription newsletter.

    From 2008 - 2015, I took a hiatus from writing about BWIA, but my interest in BWIA did not wane. From 2016 - 2020 I worked to resume writing full time.
