We’ve posted about SpinVox a number of times before, and in fact I am a recent convert (why, oh why, didn’t I sign up before!) – but a video explaining a bit about how the system works, now that would be a neat thing…….
….. well it just so happens there is one – and some well-written accompanying text, over at BBC News. Rather than reproduce it all, click here, and you can take a look at the short vid, plus the story.
I’m going to be writing a “usage review” of the system in the next couple of weeks, for those of you that are interested – here’s hoping for some great voicemails left for me before then, to give the natural language engine in the SpinVox system a proper workout!
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career
when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has
now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the
next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas!
He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently
became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years
when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to
'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make
your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device)
isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question
of why you continue to use it...
His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and
infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the
occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience
in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with
regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
