Internet Connectivity Woes Threaten "Mobile First, Cloud First"

As we race forward into what Microsoft calls the "mobile first, cloud first" era, the one big assumption we're making is that we're all interconnected. But as readers and others often remind me, that's not always true. Not even close.

But some of my customers are in logging and in oil and mineral prospecting and it will be a long time before they'll have reliable high-bandwidth Internet access in their field HQs let alone actually out in the field in helicopters, ORVs, and on foot.
