Do you have something to say that would fit on Telecom Ramblings? Whether you have your own blog already or just want try out the microphone and see what it feels like, just send me an email and let me know what you’d like to talk about.
Tales from the Field (here)
We hear lots of stories and accumulated wisdom from those at the top of the telecom food chain, but there is wisdom and humor in the trenches as well. Tales from the Field will seek out those stories and give them a platform. Do you have story to tell? Send it along. Names, locations, and whatever else is necessary will be obfuscated or removed to protect the innocent. Well, also the not-so-innocent I suppose! Stories can be of almost any type, but should be good natured in their tone – no personal attacks etc. I may edit spelling and grammar, and expand acronyms so the rest of the world can understand them, but will give the contributor veto power over those changes prior to publishing if sufficient communication is established. Submissions can be anonymous, claimed by a nickname/handle and reused, or whatever.

Self explanatory. If you have a projection, model, or tool that you use to better understand companies in this sector and want to share, whether to seek input, educate, or spark discussion, there is always room!
Anything else?
I’m always open for ideas. Pictures? Videos? Other stuff? If you have anything to share, please contact me!
