I really like the architecture of this hotel built right on the Fraser River in New Westminster, B.C.

Peaceful on Deer Lake, originally uploaded by Elwin Witzke.
While taking a stroll around Deer Lake we saw a number of people enjoying this quiet jewel in the middle of Burnaby. It’s a beautiful place to come an spend an hour in a busy day.

Telus marketing is not smart
Saturday, September 27th, 2008Ah, the wonder’s of smartphones, internet in your pocket and a really, really big dead spot.
I was in the Skytrain station (Granville) a few days ago and noticed all the Telus ads. New smartphones, Blackberrys and all kinds cell phones. Stay in touch, access the internet etc, etc. Kinda makes me want to visit my local Telus dealer to get something new.
But wait!
Telus doesn’t have any service in the underground Skytrain stations in Vancouver. Hasn’t had it ever that I can remember and I’ve been a Telus customer for at least 15 years. I see lots of people using their phones – I wonder who they are with? Definitely not with Telus or Bell, our local CDMA carriers.
Why is that Telus can’t get it together and get the appropriate antenna system installed in the tunnel? Not enough high-paying business customers? They seemed to be able to do it for the tunnel by the PNE. Well, the worlds a-changin, and more and more of those high-paying business customers are moving transit (ie. Skytrain).
What a joke, advertising your phones and the cool ($$) services in a place that has no signal.
I think Telus marketing needs to have a heart to heart with Telus engineering and infrastructure delivery.
