Many academic types are arguing we need to get rid of the existing internet and start from a clean slate to deal with the myriad issues the world now faces such as security and mobility.<\/div>\n

While I am not as smart as any of the people doing this work I wonder what the problems are with the Internet as I can access it from a mobile device today. Security has some challenges but is always being improved.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
I am however all for this sort of clean slate thinking as many of the concepts being researched will no doubt find themselves into the current internet infrastructure.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
This is what happens in the automotive industry where concept car concepts and sometimes even cars themselves find their way into production.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
The National Science Foundation wants to build an experimental research network<\/a> known as the Global Environment for Network Innovations, or GENI, and is funding several projects at universities and elsewhere through Future Internet Network Design, or FIND.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Construction on GENI could start by 2010 and take about five years to complete. Once operational, it should have a decade-long lifespan.<\/div>\n
