A person attaches a small flash drive labeled “4GB” to the back of a gray pigeon. The image references a 2009 experiment where the pigeon, named Winston, carried data faster than South Africa’s largest internet provider, Telkom, over a 60-mile distance.
While I know this was 16 years ago and the experiment was in South Africa it is still a fun reminder of how far we’ve come—and why reliable connectivity still matters.
🚀 Keep your business moving at today’s speed, not pigeon pace.
