Response to INCA & CBN


Having given some consideration to the most recent updates on the INCA and CBN sites.....

Ask yourself:

Why would I, Lindsey Annison, be running a "campaign" against the very type of community support network that I have already been instrumental in setting up TWICE in my own time and therefore obviously believe in?

For now, because I have no need to be verbose today, and I like misquotes......

"Methinks thou doth protest too much"

I often think the same, sometimes it is best to let people find out something for themselves instead of keep telling them. I have lost track of the number of blog posts I have deleted.
'The truth will always out' as my gran used to say.
'To Blog or not to Blog' I am gonna use that photo for my desktop pic.

because they left you out of it and its funding ?

Re : "To blog ..." Cartoon

It's by Cox + Forkum from late 2004.

Oh LOL, Mr Thompson. I know that you know better than that.

I want there to be an organisation that supports community networks and that has enough money to do so. I don't WANT to do it, nor have a job doing it. I have my own business to run, thanks, in a sector that I love and enjoy.

I only ever got involved in this broadband lark so I could run my business. 15 years on, my business is losing traction to my competitors' because I still have nothing you could call broadband, and my days and nights vanish in campaigning for it.

So, perhaps you would care to rethink your comment based on the truth, and not endeavour to smear my name.

Aha, thanks for the cartoon accreditation, MB.

@ Cybersavvy UK - You're welcome.

To all,
I wanted [1] a bigger image for desktop use (470x332 is medium by today's standards) and [2] to see if the artist(s) had anything else of interest (they did).

The rephrased bard's point IMO is to find a balance between venting one's spleen and contributing to the discussion. When I'm reading various blogs I ask myself "Can I make a useful contribution or am I being a windbag ?". Sometimes all I do is contribute a live version of a posted URL without comment. Other times I toss a useful nugget into the pot. We are a community of communities and as an American I'm doubly proud to say "E pluribus unum".
