Announcing FWD's Global Communicator Project:

I want to thank the visionary participants of the first official planning meeting of FWD's Global Communications Project.

- Chris Anderson, Editor-in-Chief, Wired Magazine
- Yves Behar, Founder, Chief Designer, fuseproject
- Daniel Berninger, CEO, FWD
- Tom Evslin, co-founder, CTO, FWD
- Stuart Gannes, founder, Stanford Digital Vision Program
- Mike Masnick, CEO, Techdirt
- Mitch Pergola, Managing Partner, fuseproject
- Tim Pozar, Partner, Late Night Software
- Michael Spencer, co-founder, i2 partners
- Emy Tseng, Director, San Francisco Digital Inclusion Program
- Roland Van Der Meer, Partner, Velocity Interactive Group
- Yossi Vardi, Principal, International Technologies Ventures

fuseproject hosted the meeting in their San Francisco studio toward the creation of a new category of device capable of delivering communication to the billions of people presently unserved by the communication industry.

I have suffered plenty of abuse over the years about the supposedly naive sentiment that led to the founding of Free World Dialup in 1995, so it is gratifying to see the caliber of people excited by continuing the vision. Yves Behar and fuseproject, for example, created the design of the XO Laptop for Nicholas Negroponte's OLPC and routinely gets featured in art exhibits around the world.

FWD's Global Communication Project (GCP) seeks to leverage VoIP and open standards in a device that delivers affordable communication beyond even the very rapid and ongoing price performance improvements achieved by the cellular industry. We have in mind a device costing a fraction of the $25 price point associated with low end SIP phones, and a business model without monthly service charges. The design requirements call for a device that copes with rural realities or urban environments and supports deployment scales from a few dozen to billions of devices.

GCP will need partners for all phases of the project as overcoming the connectivity and distribution challenges go far beyond what a single company can accomplish. We also hope to stimulate others to think more about the fact 70% of world's population represents a greenfield voice market. Please contact Daniel Berninger (dan@danielberninger.com) if you have ideas to contribute to GCP or we can help get visibility for your effort to reach the unserved communication markets.

Many people like to listen to songs, for music can clean to people today with the middle sand and mud; it may arouse the heart with the childlike innocence, it can get rid of the heart trouble, so songs direction and producers showed up with the albums for every person to hear. If you tend to be somebody who wants to listen to songs, you might have already heard concerning the dr dre headphones, or most generally known as Monster Beats. Who would have although that Dr Dre would be making and delivering a revolutionary pair of headphones? The type of the Monster Beats By Dr Dre Studio is very good. I think you will like it.
