The march goes on to bring high speed internet access to rural America. We’re becoming a wired countryside folks.
Using The New Firefox
Our web developer man, Robert said that if I was going to write about the new Internet Explorer 7 release then I sure better write about the new Firefox 2 release.
Internet Explorer 7 Official
Since Microsoft officially announced Internet Explorer 7 this week I decided to make the switch. It only takes a few minutes and I’ve got it running on my 2 main computers now. So far I’m happy with it.
Internet Cloud Over Sunbelt Ag Expo
I’ve been to many Sunbelt Ag Expos but not this year. It’s going on right now in Moultrie, GA. Thanks to Camvera Networks you can surf the web wirelessly anywhere on the site. This would sure come in handy at a lot of ag events around the country. Sounds like a business model to me.
Selling That Seed Online
The latest news about how USDA is helping push broadband development in rural areas has stoked the fires of a number of people. I’m at the top of that list.
More Money For Broadband
Just last month USDA announced loans for the development of rural broadband. At the end of last week they announced more.
Dairy Council Spots on YouTube
It’s amazing what you can find on the internet today. If you like old tv commercials you might enjoy a couple of old animated Dairy Council spots that are posted on AdJab.
Live Web ChickenCast
The “100% Chicken, Naturally.” folks, Sanderson Farms, will be taking part in a live webcast from the National Chicken Council annual meeting on Thursday. This sure seems like something that makes so much sense today that I don’t know why we don’t see more organizations or companies doing it. It’s a great way to reach the media that can’t attend, your customers who are interested and can’t attend and by recording and archiving it you can use elements of it in news releases, on your website, in your podcasts, newsletters and presentations. I’m guessing Sanderson Farms knows this and will be doing so.
Reaching Foodies Today
I know there are a lot of you who work for or support groups who want to reach consumers about various kinds of food. You might be interested in a recent story on eMarketer.com that contains some study information like in this graphic. They pulled together information from a couple of sources like the following:
Healthy Agri-Culture
