Ben West, WasabiNet's co-founder, is off to Berlin for this year's International Summit for Community Wireless Networks (IS4CWN), being hosted by the Open Technology Institute of the New America Foundation. Exciting! Aufregend (in German)! Ben will be presenting a tech showcase about the solar-powered rooftop wireless network Sunflower Mesh, in conjunction with the COMMUNAL-cator project being presented by Xavier Leonard.

Ben has been attending these summits since it came to St. Louis in 2006. Through these conferences, Ben has promoted the the wonders of WasabiNet, the local hackerspace Arch Reactor, the Cherokee Street community, and St. Louis in general, in distant places like Vienna, Barcelona, and now mostly recently Berlin.

Here are some selected highlights Ben looks forward to during this year's summit in Berlin:

  • Cloummunity: A cloud infrastructure for community wireless networks
  • Community Organizing and Alternative Business Models, being tested out currently by community wireless networks like WasabiNet
  • Updates about the Red Hook Community Wifi network in Brooklyn
  • An inexpensive, prototype optical Gbit/s wireless device being developed by WLAN Slovenia

One important factor which may influence appetite control will be the
perception of food cravings. Before you can begin together with your plan to lose weight and dropping extra fat out of your
body normally, you must know why you have stomach fat in the first place.
Drink Water-- The only liquid you must drink is water.
