So I feel I’ve neglected this site long enough, I really should update people about why on earth I’m hardly in touch with the world. January is always a good month for announcements anyway right?<\/p>\n
Firstly I am now CEO (or chief slave driver as I prefer to call it) of a small technology and design startup called Tinker.it<\/a>. My partner in this being non other than my former IDII professor Massimo Banzi. So that’s taking, oh about 90% of my time now.<\/p>\n I’ve also been spending the last few months doing a bit of work for Blyk<\/a> the free mobile network for young people funded by advertising. Often referred in my twitters as Finland2.0, it’s been really interesting as I’ve been running workshops with their target audience. Call it a user-based Applied Dreams if you will.<\/p>\n Then, well I’ve been working on a little project of mine with some great friends. More soon I hope. Let’s just say my dreams of getting something weby done are finally coming true.<\/p>\n And to top things off, Karola<\/a> and I will hopefully be selling Topoware<\/a> china to the world in a few months. I’ve been having fun dealing with real manufacturing constraints and old world communications with this one.<\/p>\n So there, it’s not that I don’t love you all, it’s just that I’m trying to die young :P<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So I feel I’ve neglected this site long enough, I really should update people about why on earth I’m hardly in touch with the world.
