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.

Twitter stressing Out

I remember reading a comment to the effect that a lot of the “2.0″ stuff was putting “the interface layer people in charge of the infrastructure” and this just doesn’t work. Twitter’s lack of reliability is a painful example of this happening in practice.

However not all “2.0″ services and people should be tarred with this brush.
