Are Blackberrys systemically important ?
2011-10-12 20:39 (1014 Views)

Hello all BB users and others!

My recent blog was about the extensive use of tools to be online all time, this blog will be along the same topic but from a very serious angle; Blackberry crise!

For the last few days everyone that use a Blackberry have been in great despair on and of. No emails have reached the little device and it has been difficult to send emails. Then all of sudden you get a whole bunch of emails and you think that the problem is over but that was not be trusted! A few hours later the problem is back again!

Personally I have been enormously worried about this behaviour from my little blackberry! And I do depend a lot on a well running flow of emails.

I have now realized that this is global problem, 30-40 million blackberry user have problems right now all over the world. That is about 50% of all blackberry users!
My conclusion of this is of course that the problems with Blackberrys have negative effects on the global business environment!

Maybe it is about time that we realize that Blackberrys are part of the systemically important infrastructures of the world, do the authorities realize that the have to take measures to make the situation stable? Or is this a chance for me as a addicted Blackberry user to realize that I have a chance to take a break from the constant urge to always read emails.....

    I think it is time for you to write down a business contingency plan for when your BB is not functioning
