Store, Carry, Forward: The Networking Genius of Pigeons
Pigeons - what are they good for? Quite a lot, actually.
In this talk, we'll be winging it together as we look at the history of moving information around via feathernet connection, homing in on how pigeons work, and (bird)seeding ideas for why we might still need pigeon post in future.
On our journey, we’ll look at…
- heroic pigeons of the past and the people who fancied them
- how pigeons work, and why this makes them useful
- how pigeons compare to the internet, including ‘IP over Avian Carrier'
- how to stop your data being eaten by a hawk
And there'll probably be puns.
