Cows on the internet as broadband brings new ways to the bush

Cows on the internet as broadband brings new ways to the bush: "As his HiLux ute bumped over hilly farmland outside Armidale, David Lamb kept a hand on the wheel and grabbed an iPad in the other to locate his herd of 50 ''smart'' cows.

Each cow is fitted with a tag in its ear that transmits its location to a digital map of the property.

Pausing briefly to look at the screen, Lamb could see where each cow - represented by a number and an icon - was located on the 2800 hectare farm."
