Telecom have released a new range of home broadband packages, based around Choice and Simplicity, and Concrete Playground is proud to partner with them on getting this message out. After all, we rely on you being online, in the comfort of your own home, scouring our website for ideas and inspiration. And it is a great angle for the telco, as it has been for far to long, a complicated and drawn out process for setting up that homely wifi fix. Telecom are making it simple, and we applaud thee.

And that brings us to the point of this article. As part of the Choice and Simplicity series, we have decided to trawl deep within Concrete Playground's archives to find articles that resonate with this message.

Below are five 'Choice' articles on Concrete Playground. Not only do the articles provide a choice, i.e. a range of options available, but we think they are quite simply, choice, as in, cool, ka pai, hip, etc etc, while keeping within the theme of internet, online, wifi and the works. We hope you get the message. Choice one.
