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.

Today I cancelled two O2 accounts..

DateWednesday, December 2, 2009 at 2:05PM

Today I cancelled two O2 accounts:

  • An iPhone handset which had been lost some time ago
  • An O2 3g Huwei E160 'dongle'

In both cases, I cited the lack of coverage at SE1 as the reason. In the second case, the terminations person basically shouted down the phone 'There is no guarantee of coverage' a number of times.

Nice.
