I
figure that since this is my first blog no one is going to read it as
nobody knows about it. That gives me the freedom to basically say
whatever I want without ramifications. And yes I understand that
this will remain on my permanent record but how many people will say,
“Hey, I like this blog, I think I'll go back and read all the old
issues”? I mean, the first part of the sentence is a bit of
stretch to begin with. No, I think this is more like a preface
than an introduction,
even though there are introductory elements to the content, and let's
face it not very many people (besides me of course) bother with the
preface.
So
with that rambling introduction out of the way let's get to the real
introduction. My name is Graham Joys (clicking on my name will take
you to my LinkedIn profile) and I am writing this blog on behalf of
Vista Networking Solutions (VNS). We design and build Network Video
Recorders (NVR) and you can learn more about us by clicking on our
name.
While
of course it is tempting to use this forum as a vehicle for company
news and self promotion I'm pretty sure that that would become pretty
boring after oh, say, one article. So it is my intent to create a
platform to discuss technology within our Industry – namely
physical security. Of course I reserve the right for a shameless
plug at some point in the future (wink). OK now, you ask yourself,
what the H E double hockey sticks does this mean. Well, I envision
that in the future (when people are actually reading), we will
present some tutorials, discuss industry trends and challenges,
invite guest speakers, include a video or two and address topics
championed by readers... all in a conversational manner with
hopefully a little humor – at least enough to make you smile (or
groan) if not chuckle but I draw the line at guffaws – those are
just creepy. I should state up front that I am, like everyone else
in business, biased; so the OpEd elements of this space will be
slanted. I believe IP will (and actually is) take over our industry
like it has everywhere else – if you don't believe this try talking
to someone who used to work at Alcatel or Nortel. My goal here is to
provide information that you will find interesting and useful. I am
not competing with the industry journals, which are mostly filled
with long articles by advertisers masking as case studies. Here
we'll keep the content to one page so you can consume it easily and
move on – sort of like a taco.
Alright
then, I've made it through my first blog and already I've violated
one of the tenants I stated above – I've not imparted any
information, wisdom, message or anything else for that matter. If no
wisdom is imparted and no one is there to receive it did anything
really happen? So since I have a little space left and I'd rather
not grapple with the philosophical implications of the previous
question let me give a preview of the topics we are kicking around
for future issues (in no particular order).
- RAID for Dummies (and me)
- The IP address
- The MAC address
- Video compression
- Power-over-Ethernet
- Market Segmentation
- Things to consider when...
I
guess in hind sight the last paragraph was like one of the phantom
endings in The Return of the King. This is really the end. If there
was anyone reading please let me know – I suppose there are always
hecklers.
Nice and interesting information and informative too. Networking solutions
