- noonespecial 18y ago"A van down by the river" sprung to mind. I could have a pretty nice van for 1/4 the rent I'm paying now. A few solar "battery boosters" from the rv place, an EeePC and a tether-able smartphone and I'm set. Forget google's "container datacenters", prepare yourself for container startups. Simply place your container of geeks in the sunlight within range of a cell tower, insert ramen and Mountain Dew and interesting web apps should begin to sprout within a week or two. I'm calling it the "Y-Container". :)
- nazgulnarsil 18y agoI know this is supposed to be a joke, but I think that in places like china and india this could be explosive. you know how there's that company converting shipping containers into living accommodations? How about ad hoc office space? go anywhere: drop off an office capable of being wired up and worked out of.
- menloparkbum 18y agoIt's more likely in places like Africa. China and India are very physically crowded. I've actually seen a number of shipping container houses in Kenya, years ago. Also, being a giant communist country, one thing China does do is provide some sort of housing for most everyone.
