Even though we can connect “Internet of Things”, the cost of connectivity is still a concern in major number of countries.
And the connection is not available everywhere yet.
Why the Internet still is not available with (may be with satellite) everywhere? We use 3G/4G, but the cost is not inline with usage of connecting the “Internet of Things”.
For just reading offline on my Wifi-only phone, I use apps like PaperSpan (http://paperspan.com) , because Internet is still not available everwhere or it costs more.
I think, “Internet Everywhere” comes before “Connecting Internet of Things”.

Agree with the position, however, in Canada we still pay among the highest rate for internet services and that is going to continue to have a very detrimental impact on Canada’s ability to compete. This is a significant problem that we need to resolve quickly.

Paul, IFTTT is interesting technology, but largely a very closed and limiting ecosystem (at present). We’ve built an IoT-focused platform that I think embodies and enables the full potential of connected things, systems, and people. Check it out at http://www.thingworx.com. Happy to show you sometime.
