Insights On Politics, Business, and Life
Have written this down in notes over the weekend. They called it something about networking, but there are some good points on being a good relationship building.
“Above all, the pure light of revelation has had an influence on mankind, and increased the blessings of society. It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.”
—George Washington
Strange product names in Japan. Interestingly, this was on a shelf above a toilet in a burger joint in Tokyo. ‘Sanity’ here is an air freshener.

AINEO is a communications technology company. We’re 20 years old this month (May 2017)! As communications or “comms’ means phones, email, chat, video, and document collaboration, it’s hard to give an elevator speech since comms are an essential part of business.
We did this video to give people a feel for our iPBX Circle product. It’s all about collaborations. Check out our new video, you can get it all in 90 secs!
This guy picked a strange place to sleep on Sunday night. He’s sleeping at a Tokyo station early Monday morning. He couldn’t have been drinking, could he?

Believe it or not, this video is in ‘Tokyo’. We operate Japan’s best cloud phone service for companies, so if the phone number isn’t 03, then ‘Tokyo’ is a bit of a stretch.. It was still fun.
Several of us from the office went out for some rafting. Great to get out and enjoy the Tama River.
Remember this firm? This little clock came from a Nortel dealer event in Tokyo, Japan. It must have been one of those first radio wave clocks.
Nortel was a great company of the North, Canada. They used to keep us really busy. We still have companies using their end of life systems and have fewer and fewer parts. Nortel was bought out by their neighbor to the South, Avaya, who has recently declared bankruptcy.
Moral to the story, we must always be innovating to stay ahead in business.
Nortel RIP.
Big hit on a lot of networks world wide today. Just because you get an email with a link to click or file attachment, doesn’t mean you should open it.
Please be careful about opening anything that comes into your email account. Gmail has been rife with malware. In today’s case it is windows users, but it could hit anyone.
We must be diligent to protect ourselves from cyber threats.
More on today’s attack here.
Today, we hear that Apple Computer is worth $800B, according to US investors, the WSJ reports. Amazing.
Something else I guess that is amazing, and probably related, is Apple charges around $32 USD for an Apple Watch cable… it probably costs around $3 to make.
It will be interesting to watch how long the company can stay on top.
Sometimes you don’t realize how good stuff is until you don’t have it anymore. Last year, got a great portable charger from Robert Walters Japan. Good little unit that holds a good charge and is a convenient size for the mega city road warrior types like us.
Gave my unit to a team mate a couple months back. Then realized how useful the little guy is with all our devices and reliance on cloud services like QuickerWeb and Japan’s fastest growing cloud phone service iPBX Hosting.
It’s fun to give people useful things, also very appreciative to Robert Walters for finding an additional unit. Thanks RW Japan!
