People often ask me where I’m based – meaning specifically, where I work from. I usually give them a coy answer (I know, shocking!) that I work out of seat 7C on United Airlines. That’s how I feel today. I just got back last night from Gotham City and am off to Europe today for [...] Pitch Fest Slides From the 2011 Enterprise Mobility Boot Camp

I’ve had the privilege of Chairing the Wireless and Mobility Track at the Interop conferences for some time now. Interop Spring, held in Las Vegas, is the largest enterprise IT event in the world, and the New York event, Interop Fall, while smaller, is in no way less intense than its big brother.
