St Restitut

L'invention du téléphone et des télécommunications intercontinentales a permis -d'après certains penseurs libéraux- l'avènement d'un village planétaire où tous, nous sommes reliés au reste de l'Humanité tels des frères et soeurs humains.

Et voici donc la preuve à quel point les télécommunications nous rapprochent. :-))

Bangkok's cabling, known for being complex and often chaotic on overhead poles, consists mostly of fiber optic cables for internet and telephone lines, not electricity, and is often tangled and left untidy. CAT Telecom (now National Telecom) manages the city's data network infrastructure.

El cableado en Bangkok, conocido por ser complejo y a menudo caótico en los postes aéreos, consta mayoritariamente de cables de fibra óptica para internet y líneas telefónicas, no electricidad, a menudo desordenados y sin retirar.

Telecoms and Tele goes: Technology from the Microwave Era. Our local company TSTT seemed to be too slow to move away from copper and other legacy technologies and now faces stiff competition from other service providers.

From radio signals to television and high-speed data communications, satellites that orbit our planet play a major role in how we communicate with each other around the world. Currently, there are over 1200 communication satellites in Earth's orbit.

The full moon for February, 2024 rises behind a telecommunications tower in Central Texas,

Looking up at the BT Tower from its base, there are clear hints of Brutalism in and around its lower parts. Due to the high ISO, the sky was burnt out, so some "Sky Replacement" was used to set the monument against something similar to what was there that particular evening.

Like it or loathe it, the Stokenchurch Telecom Tower is a Chiltern landmark, visible for miles around. When travelling south on the M40, its a welcome sight, as you are getting near home.

I used to be a telephone technician in my twenties, and seeing a mess like this makes me cringe lol! I can only imagine trying to troubleshoot a problem in this tangled mess!

When I heard this weeks theme was "Telecom" my first thought was the reliance and addiction most of us have to our phones. I thought that some street photography around London's King's Cross train station would be a good spot for this.

This is the Mauritius Telecom Tower, Édith Cavell street, Port-Louis, Mauritius.

A disused phone box in a rural location. The light had been decommissioned, so had to take my own LED to give it a new lease of life. They're now pretty much redundant in today's world, and are sadly slowly disappearing from our towns and villages.

Some things have changed more than others ;) (Antique phone booth - which houses the phone but the user speaks standing outside, from the turn of last century - next to contemporary bikes in everyday use today. They have evolved, too, but a lot less than phones?)
