Does the world really need another blog post about the iPhone? Probably not, but I just can’t resist it. I tried really hard for the last couple of weeks.
There are two questions about the iPhone that I am interested in:
Is it a good phone?
What impact will it have on the Mobile industry?
Christian Lindholm has […]
Congratulations to 3 for doing the right thing and launching a true flat rate data plan in the UK. What can I say but “About fucking time!”. Yes, T-Mobile has been pushing the boat out quite a bit with their ‘unlimited’ Web-n-Walk plan, but of course that excludes VoIP, Video, P2P filesharing and generally anything […]
If you don’t read The Economist (and you should, really!) then this week is a great time to start the habit. Their survey on Telecoms Convergence is, as usual, excellent. All you need to know on the subject. And everything the operators don’t want you to know.
Somebody at work sent around this slightly older article today about the maker of Gore-Tex. I found it extremely inspiring and definitely worth reading. A lot of the culture at Gore seems to be very similar to how things work here at Google and I was really surprised to see that some of this stuff […]

The brainchild of a couple of former Yahoos, this site aims to revolutionize property search by giving it a much overdue Web 2.0 makeover, complete with Google Map, Flickr […]
Have been thinking about this for a while and just thought I ‘d better capture it. Your guess as to which characters in my professional life have inspired some of these.
Most commenly I think of two types of Generals. One is always charging ahead with his troups in the front line, inspiring them with his […]
I am off to Barcelona tomorrow for 3GSM. Hope to see you there. I am really trying to keep my diary as free as possible to just hang out, as is appropriate for the unemployed.
Last night Beth and I went for dinner to our favourite local restaurant, The Swan. It is a real privilege to have such an excellent eatery on our doorstep. It is only 100 yards from our house and we can see the outside terrace from our bedroom window. It is sometimes a bit noisy in […]
Alex Tew manages to stay in the news, against the odds. Now, as the BBC reports, some cowboys are trying to blackmail him by running a DOS attack on his site unless he pays them $5,000. I can understand that some people are jealous and annoyed that they didn’t come up with his stunningly simple […]
