Will Smith one-man show I Am Legend is one of three movies I’m really really excited about in the next couple of months. (The other two are — obvs — Beowulf and The Golden Compass.)

To show off its telecom engineering chops and showcase next-generation web-applications. Oh, and maybe shame the big national broadband providers into improving U.S. Internet service speed, which currently lags behind many other countries around the world.
