40% off M-Football Tickets

I’m just getting my agenda sorted out for the year and the first event I’m doing is M-Football next week in London, which looks like a great kick off (sorry!) for the World Cup year and one which will be hugely important for mobile too.

Welcome Back

To me, that is
It’s been a while. As many of you know, I started work on an MBA in the fall, and this semester has been pretty brutal on the work front. Combined with a job/internship search in this economy (coupled with Vegas’ 10%+ unemployment rate), and time has been pretty short. In [...]

Things That Made Me Go “Cool Beans” This Week

The title isn’t very Google friendly, but you can’t have everything. But here indeed are a few things of interest this week.
- I’ve been using a neat little application called Xobni recently, which is a free app that helps you manage email so much easier. It works as an extension to Outlook and really saves [...]

Coming to San Francisco, Orlando and Barcelona

Just a quick update on my travel plans in the next month – if you’re in the area, maybe we can get together and say Hi.

Here Comes the Bride

Young Carlo, my talented co-editor, is getting married in a few short weeks (August 8th), though it’s probably not too late to warn off Alex, his bride-to-be.

You Know You’re A Dork When…

…you go see a great movie (The Dark Knight, in this case), and the most exciting thing you see is a Nokia touchscreen handset.

Holiday

I’m off on holiday (vacation to our American friends) for a couple of weeks, so I’ll leave you in Carlo’s very capable hands.
I look forward to more blogging on my return, but in the meantime I’ve got some serious chillin’ to do.

Sky TV

I’ve had a very busy couple of weeks, so apologies for the lack of blogging. Among other things, it feels like I’ve been commuting to the US, with a trip to the West Coast and another to New York.
In between, I was interviewed by Sky News, so if you’re curious to see what I look [...]

That Reminds Me To Tell You About My Wednesday Morning…

It’s not just me that thinks Nokia’s a-bag-a-shite – SMS Text News:
I often feel that I am the only chap on the planet calling out Nokia for piss poor innovation and ridiculous, ridiculous lack of attention to really important elements %u2014 especially when I%u2019m regularly coming into contact with Symbian fanatics.
