My Fourth Child

This video is mostly in Spanish. But you get the idea. When you have a fourth child you don´t so much change your life because of him. You bring him into your life. So here I am, working, while Leo is sound asleep.

FON in China
Published by MartinVarsavsky.net in Fon with No Comments
This came out today in Hi Tech Weekly, a very popular electronics magazine in China.

After having fought for years through Jazztel and Ya.com to end Telefonica’s monopoly and to reach the so-called liberalization of telecommunications in Spain, it ends up that now with FON I have found another monopoly in which not even Telefonica has a chance: the Airports in Spain.

You Scratch My Back And I Scratch Yours
Published by MartinVarsavsky.net in Fon with No Comments
Jason Goodman told me that he sees FON as an organization based on the principle “you scratch my back and I scratch yours”. Today I saw this in action.
These women are writing the FONero promise in order to get a free Fonera. But look how they do it, as our stand at SIMO, Spain´s largest tech fair is a mob scene and there´s nowhere to write, they write on each other´s back. Very FON.

Leo Was Born Con Un Pan Bajo El Brazo
Published by MartinVarsavsky.net in Fon with No Comments
We are back home. Leo, his Mom, his siblings, my mother in law (yes, her as well…) and, in the middle of all this, I remember that I have another child…..FON. So I do what I always do when I want to know what´s happening at FON. I go to the Statcounters that show me sales in the FON shops around the world, and I see the great news that, indeed, Leo was born with a pan bajo el brazo, with a loave of bread under his arm.
Today is shaping up as the day ever for the Movimiento FON. We are growing like crazy all over the planet. Korea, China, Germany, Spain, Italy, and even US, which has been our slowest market so far, is beginning to pick up. So I guess there´s no need for me to go to the office! Leo, I´m staying home….

Leo Has Mail…
Published by MartinVarsavsky.net in New Ideas with No Comments
Today I got Leo, our newborn an e mail address. I know this sounds crazy, as he is only 46 hours old as I post this. But trust me, there´s a plan here. This morning I started writing to Leo to his new e mail address. I sent him a link to this blog in Spanish and English with all the beautiful congratulatory messages he got. I forwarded copies of the celebration e mails that I got directly. I also sent him videos and pictures of his birth and first 48 hours. And during his life, whenever I feel like it, I will send him e mails.
