Monday December 1 2008 was my last day at Crossroads Wireless.

That morning I was spoke with Dan (CIO) about the stockholder news posted to the company’s website. We both agreed it was looking bad. I told Dan I expected the economy to turn around in February of next year. We both hoped Crossroads to make it until then. Just two hours later, Dan came to me today and said it was over. Everyone began to packing up their desks and by 3:30pm everyone was gone.

Crossroads Wireless was a great place to work and I believe it would have done well had the economy not turned bad and the investor money dried up. We had just started to get everything working. Data worked, Voice worked, SMS / Email gateways worked, we had even produced bill for other carrier roaming customers. Lots of technology and lots of challenges, just my kind of place. I’m now hunting from my next perfect job.

Hey Mr. Gates, you need to create an OpenSource division of Microsoft to work on needed project like Banking software. This would really change people opinion of the company and do lots of good.

Mr. Whitehurst, Redhat should really start a podcast to talk about your product and promote OpenSource. Would you be interested?

Mr. Business Owner, you should be using OpenSource software to cut costs and bring more intervation to your company.  If you are using the same accounting practices as your competior how can you inovate? I can show you how to save money and move ahead.
