I've always liked to build things. Since I outgrew Lego I've been building software, development teams and most recently companies.

I'm Founder and CTO of Rapid Mobile Media Ltd in Edinburgh, Scotland. We founded the company in February 2004. We mobilise applications, but are now focussing on Ad360 Mobile Advertising Platform.

I like to think of us as creating mobile applications that people actually use, but we go much deeper than that.

This blog, however, is much more about my observations on the last frontier, the world of mobile technology. And anything else that crosses my path.

All Change

I finally got fed up with Thunderbird on the Mac, and have now migrated to Microsoft Entourage.

My Sony Ericsson W900i has died completely, and I used a Nokia N70 for a couple of days until a new Sony Ericsson P990i turned up.

In both cases I am rebuilding my contacts list. In Entourage because I chose to, in the case of the phone because there was no option as the backup software provided with the W900i never worked. I do have most of the contacts backed up on the SIM, but there’s a whole post just in getting contacts from the SIM back into the main contact list.

Very interesting seeing how essentially the same functions can be implemented in wildly different ways. I’ll be writing more about aspects of this over the next few days.
