How Long...
dogknees 28th Mar 2012
Do the organizers of these big events need so they can plan properly and not affect the rest of us? It seems as though 4 years isn't enough.

Or, do they just think it's OK to walk all over the people that live there to cater for the tourists?

OH it gets even better than this
HAL 9000 Updated - 28th Mar 2012
All people who work in London have been told not to bring their cars to work during the Olympics.

They have been told to walk to work.

All that actually means is that they get run over by Visitors to London for the Games and nothing else but at least the Visitors are not put out till they run over a crowd of workers walking to work over.

However what we should actually be looking out for is WiFi Bandwidth Issues and see just how the system copes with the load of so many visitors all attempting to use their WiFi Devices both on 802 and the Mobile Broadband Networks to see what actually happens.

If nothing else it will be a great way to show what is going to happen with the current trend to go Mobile when everyone has several Mobile Devices and no available bandwidth. I'm just wondering how much extra that the Telco's and ISP's will Gouge out of the users during this time. wink
