'Series of tubes'
Look at all that fibre.
From One Wilshire, a "carrier hotel" (an internet exchange) featured in NPR.
I wonder what it would take to have something like this in the Philippines. Would the Philippine OpenIX fit the bill? From what I gathered from mailing list archives (needs registration to view archive), the exchange has been planned since October 2006. There are also efforts to encourage local carriers to join in.
There is, of course, PhIX (Philippine Internet Exchange), but I hear there are major problems with that (congestion, expensive local linking, among others).

Been there. PLDT has been longtime tenant in that building in downtown LA.
ReplyDeleteCool. Would PLDT be interested in doing the same here? Er, besides what they have done (are doing) in PhIX?
