Check out Mike Butcher’s post over at TechCrunch UK. Fascinating. Sky News have appointed a Twitter correspondent to hunt for news stories across the service — and, I assume, across other mediums such as Facebook and so on. The correspondent is named Ruth Barnett. I trust she is equipped with a shit-hot array of 30″ [...]

Watch out, Mr Operator’s about
I’ve given Mr Operator a Twitter account, a domain name and a Disqus account. Don’t expect to be overflowing with informed Mr Operator opinion every time you turn a corner. He’s a busy chap. You will, however, see him around the site now and again. I wanted to be clear that if you see the [...]

This ZumoDrive upload is going to take a little while…
I’ve been uploading files to ZumoDrive. I bought the 500gb ZumoDrive option and I’m currently uploading about 200gb of music. The super thing about this is I’ll be able to ‘access’ my iTunes music — all 200gb of it — from my 4GB Vodafone Dell Mini Netbook, or from my array of laptops and other [...]
Jonathan Jensen on Thursday – Truphone; the first global operator?

In one respect announcing a [...]

Parkmobile’s failure got our publisher, Dan, a £60 fine
Our publisher, Dan Ilett, writes: – – – – – I’m clutching a £60 parking fine that really shouldn’t be in my hand. I know everyone moans about parking tickets, but you really don’t expect to get one when you’ve already paid for your parking. Last week, I parked in Tooting for a meeting. The [...]

Mr Operator is back. If you’re new to the series, you can read his entire back catalogue here. And a quick overview of Mr Operator’s identity? Well, I could tell you, but then I’d have to silence you in some manner. Mr Operator’s identity is a closely guarded secret. That’s because he’s in an influential [...]
Exclusive Video: Visiarc’s “Mobile Documents” for Nokia

And Finally … with Andrew Bud of mBlox
I couldn’t resist asking Andrew Bud, top chap at international mobile services company, mBlox, ‘What was your first handset?’ His answer was one of the most interesting we’ve ever had on Mobile Industry Review… This is just a small vid — 1 minute 23 seconds. Have a watch — here it is:
