Dr Richard M Marshall

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.

Mobile Shop Idol

Mobile Today is a great way to find out what’s happening in the UK mobile phone retail industry. It’s perhaps best know outside of the shops for it’s useful Counter Intelligence section listing the best-selling devices amongst other things.

They are also running a Shop Idol competition to find the best mobile phone seller in the UK. Look like it’s the third year running too. Since most shops give really bad service I had look at it, and the video-recorded mystery shopper gets genuinely good service form the person I picked. Congratulations - neat idea.
