I do love the eclectic emails I get from the guys at The O2 – most of the time there is an incredible mix of attractions, and this time it’s no different:
I don’t pretend to understand the teen sensation that is Miley, but the Ben Hur live experience sounds like it could be fun! And we all (in the UK) know the X Factor (again pop-tastic fun for all the family). O2 subscribers get all the benefits too with exclusive pre-sale tickets… links-time:
If you are in the UK and haven’t been yet – do check it out – the UK’s premier entertainment venue didn’t get it’s reputation for nothing! I recommend figuring out which event you want to see, and then building your day(s) there to include food, a film, a bit of shopping, and the event itself! A schweet day out!
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.
