Remote working, rural style
Sneak has discovered a new report from the Rural Communities Commission which warns that some areas of the country have worse mobile networks than India. Oh dear, first foot-and-mouth, then bird flu, then bluetongue – not to be confused with Bluetooth – and now this.
The government’s Rural Advocate has urged Gordon Brown to get his finger out and encourage investment in new technologies to reverse this trend. And he’s got a good point. After all, it’s probably taking the idea of remote working a bit too far to suggest that your staff must be cut off from the rest of civilisation because they can’t get broadband or a mobile signal.
