Dilly Ahl of Rye, NY 10580 and her dog friends intro page want a second line for their cell phones

Dilly Ahl of Rye, NY 10580 and her dog friends test the internet for "packet jams".

Dogs don't like to give out their private cell numbers to certain other dogs.

This is why these dogs want 2nd txt.

Even dogs have learned to hit reload for better VOIP

Dilly and her dog friends and her younger brother Ramsay the Cockapoo   Packetjam.com was set up in 1999 as a “dog blog” test. (a liberal use of the term “blog”). It is an early example of user generated content.

Packet jam: The history: The packetjam name was an alternate to datajam. Both web domains registered in 1998 were intended as speed test sites. Generate web traffic from consumers unhappy with their connection speeds.  Speed connection tests are still needed especially with the new federal definition of broadband 768/down and 220 up.

Increased consumer interest in VOIP, and the jitters caused by packet jams may mean it it is time to change Packetjam.com back to a speed test site for real packet jams? 

PACKET, PACKET JAM : When you retrieve a document via the WWW, the document is sent in "packets" which fit in between other messages on the telecommunications lines, and then are reassembled when they arrive at your end. This occurs using TCP/IP protocol. The packets may be sent via different paths on the networks which carry the Internet. If any of these packets gets delayed, your document cannot be reassembled and displayed. This is called a "packet jam." You can often resolve packet jams by pressing STOP then RELOAD. RELOAD requests a fresh copy of the document, and it is likely to be sent without jamming.

 

Will the dogs actually blog? (eat the dog food?) As a blog site for dogs, packetjam was a “miserable failure” in getting any web visitors to post dog comments, comments from other dogs. Web visitors who wanted to leave a message; (post a comment) were asked to fill in the "name" box not with their real (human) name but with their dog’s name. The incentive to use the dog’s name was: “Dilly likes to get messages from other dogs.”. There also were security concerns about kids posting or the identification of kids on web sites.   Comments also required approval before they were posted under the link "20 most recent guest comments" on the main page.

Porno SPAMMERS and other spammers figured out how to automatically insert marketing messages for body enhancement products, get rich quick schemes, pleas from displaced diplomats from Nigeria etc. As of Jan 2009 the post comment feature has been turned off.

This site is used for both web page visitor tracking and SEO search engine optimization experiments and tests. Time spent looking at specific dog pictures tracked by IP address indexed by new and returning visitors shows some interesting patterns.

 This tracking knowledge has been used for revenue generation on other web sites. As all retailers know and was written about in DMnews in 1996 if you know what content consumers are looking at (specific graphic augmented with time looked data) a creative direct marketer can craft a specific "offer" to that consumers 

As a test of web analytics and to see if any hedge fund folks sometimes called "hedgies" happen to also like to look at dog pictures from the Rye, New York , Greenwich CT area, Dilly has added a web link to Bettina Ahl's hedge fund administration resume. Dilly wants to help Tina find a new job with a Greenwich, CT based hedge fund or fund of funds. To make this job hunting process go faster and to test the power of "hedge fund key words" on non hedge fund web pages Dilly included the following : Hedge fund administration services: capital subscription and capital withdrawals, hedge fund subscription documents, hedge fund legal documents, hedge fund investors, hedge fund investment offering memorandum, hedge fund limited partnership agreements, hedge fund marketing materials, hedge fund monthly statements, hedge fund annual financial reports, hedge fund email preference database, hedge fund NAV reports sent to mobile devices, hedge fund reports sent to blackberry, fund of funds reports, hedge fund lawyers, hedge fund legal, hedge fund investor relations, hedge fund compliance, hedge fund legal compliance, hedge fund routine questions, fund of fund routine questions

Dilly's other favorite web sites  are http://selectcar.com Daveahl.net  http://daveahl.net http://datajam.com

Dilly has a new site http://ictc.com and the Green Data Center test page 

Most dogs think a data center that could run on wind power is a good idea but only if the total electricity cost is below regular old coal powered dirty electricity.
