MSN/ZDNET's Bandwidth Speed Test. I clocked in at 110kpbs down, 13.5kpbs up. Sure wish I had a t1.

John is as skeptical as ever but I did receive a call from a reporter at Webnoize about our Offshore OpenNap Fund.

Noah from Entertainment Weekly also wrote to me saying that he quoted me in their last print edition (with Oscar on the cover). Of course I don't get out much so I haven't seen it. But hey, Thanks Noah!

Well funnily enough I also got an email from Rachel (who did read it) wondering if I was the Matt Goyer from Blue Springs High School. No I'm not.. But it's funny that there's another one of me out there.

I see Dave has found out that I have weblog :). ..Big thanks to Dave for providing this wonderful weblogging tool for free! (Maybe I should send him a voluntary payment).

Spoke to Jagdeep today. He wants to brainstorm ideas for a consumer killer app for wireless devices with the target market being North America... Hmmm.. I know that if they were cheaper then I'd certainly have one.

Went to the ideaPark and EAUW ideaonTap thing tonight instead of MTHEL400. Five people gave elevator pitches. All five were boring as hell. I don't understand how an entrepreneur can have absolutely no enthusiasm for their idea.

But anyhow, one guy talked about using video panels instead of paper ads at malls.. That's a logical evolution for advertising. Now what would be cool was if the ad changed depending on who was looking at it. Someone during the past week spoke about how the advantage of the Internet is that an etailer can change their 'store' depending on the customer and that you just couldn't do that in traditional retail. Now what if you could? What if your (real) store would change the displays of product based on who was walking by? How would the display know who was walking by? Tie it all into your pda/cell phone. It'd broadcast your identity as a kind of homing signal. (I can hear the privacy advocates now). But really it's all about the value proposition. If it's compelling enough then sign me up!

Salon is reporting on a Tintin Sting where Three men are arrested for creating a lewd version of the popular Belgian comic.. Maybe it was people looking for that comic that led them to search for Tintin Sex and then end up at the very innocent Johnandmatt.com.

Thanks for mailing my dongle, unfortunately the envelope arrived today, EMPTY with a big rip in the end! Why would anyone steal my dongle??? I can't believe it's gone ... Poor John, who would steal his dongle?

Rumor has it that RIM brought The Hip to the Lyric here in Kitchener for a private concert! Why don't I know anyone at RIM!? ..I guess there are some perks when you work for the man.
