I don’t oppose the London Underground’s WiFi plans
I’m not a Londoner anymore. I live in Marlow, Buckinghamshire. However I’m in London most days so I feel I have some right to stand up and be counted here. Have a read of this: Some 55 per cent of 950 people questioned said they did not want Transport for London to go ahead with [...]

Richard was there to talk about his organisation’s new arrangement with the upcoming Taxi service, TaxiStop (see the next [...]
A quick overview of Devnest #7 last night
Last night I headed over to the Sun Microsystems Customer Briefing Centre on King William Street, just down the road from the Bank of England, to the Twitter Developer event, Devnest. This was the 7th incarnation. As I walked along King William Street I looked in the window and by chance saw a rather vacant [...]
My Google Latitude is now live to the world
People I know from London keep asking me, “Are you in San Francisco?” and, people from San Francisco keep asking if I’m in London. The where-are-you question is very, very relevant in the context of business so I’ve been trying to solve that with the use of a Where Am I function on my personal site, Ewan.net . I was previously using BlogLoc for this function… but it was getting a little bit annoying having to manually update every time I remembered.

I’m filming ShoZu interviews and how-tos this Friday afternoon at One Alfred Place in London. If you’ve been using ShoZu and would like to be on camera, come on along.

We’re LIVE at MoMo London & Swedish Beers tonight
We’re off to the CBI at Centrepoint in the middle of London to a rather extraordinary MoMo London/Swedish Beers. Swedish Beers, the networking event, is 7 years old.

Symbian Smartshow hits London today
And we are most definitely there. With bells on. To be clear this is the…er.. ‘Smartphone Show‘. Although it’s referred to as the ‘Symbian Smartphone Show’. Are they the sponsors now? I originally thought it was all about symbian only. But Blackberry are exhibiting. So are Motorola, Sony and Samsung. Nokia’s unusually nowhere to be [...]
