What am I?

I'm a technology consultant, focused on enterprise collaborative applications. I'm based in North-east Scotland but work all over Europe, and sometimes I present at technology conferences using a mixture of deep-technology and humour to keep the audience awake.

I'm married with one grown-up daughter of whom I'm immensely proud, and have family members covering most significant time-zones. We took 'hide and seek' seriously.

Other interests include making excuses not to go to the gym, testing the tolerance of my peers with humour, and sometimes bringing my 20-year old ZZR 600 out of the garage to terrify myself with.

I've been blogging since it was called 'Talking cr@p on the internet' and at one stage hand-rolled my own blog. Fame and fortune for this minor technological greatness is still 'in the post'.

Enjoy my little outpost on the web and take cheer that it could be worse - I could be a Silverlight consultant...

How to get in touch?

I have a mobile phone number which has been unchanged in 15 years. Most folks have that. Or you can try eMailing me - look at the domain name and take a good guess which will work. Most things will. I'm on Linked-In for the business stuff, Facebook for the personal stuff, and Skype for the face to face stuff. 

I'm a freelance consultant, and I'm engaged by enterprise or government customers. Most of the work I do I cannot speak about, so excuse my somewhat clumsy evasions.

I'm rather shocked and humbled to be riding on the coattails of the irrepressible Paul Mooney again next year, helping him present The Worst Practices. We have a whole bunch of new stories and categories - but feel free to send us what you have..

Whatever you do, stay away from me on Sunday night. The rest of the week is fair game.

The fact that you went with the displace of the assemblage instead of exploit your schedule was uppercase. It gave us a escapade to see in our own way, at our own step. It also gave us a probability to withdraw overmuch nearly apiece abstracted as easily, happening, Sharon's Say Therapeutic. Thanks for a better layer.
