conkers - a great fibre provider?

morning.  i have been exploring options for internet connectivity over the last few weeks for conkers that have ranged from bonding broadband connections in an office in ashby and firing them over radio waves to conkers to exploring the locality to see if anyone else has anything substantial.   we found a company next to conkers that indeed has a fibre connection of 10mbit.  we are talking with them directly and their IT team to see if anything can be done to share us a few meg for the day and radio that over to the two sites at waterside and the discovery side.   i’m not sure how possible that is.   but something i want to explore.

What this process has exposed to me however is the amount of buildings and companies that would truly benefit from talking with each other with conkers being the hub for it.  for instance, the yha hostel, moira furnace, the caravan park, the business park and a whole road full of housing just over a field or two could have access to super super fast internet via wifi - you could have a really professional local radio station and hook up farms and bakeries and have a realtime food service.  the scope is massive.  it just needs that initial feed to make it work.

I really hope you will support our efforts by signing up, for free over on http://tweetvite.com/event/conkers or http://conkerstweetup.eventbrite.com
