Wish you a Happy New Year and best wishes for 2010. I hope to use this email to keep in touch this year. I will include both personal and business updates and in each email and I will try and send something useful (for instance soft copies of forthcoming books). If you don't want to receive this email, please unsubscribe using the link below. I have also included a profile link [http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1102917241682&s=1434&e=001oaGh-QUYvZG3ZEl2sDiQL6B1AG_K28PWDeArB4uh8M6d2UDP35M20JW5kWhnIzjw8sri8Afk9wNH6uXY65j24VI-ymlXkvnuLVU2ivHD3qg450bqa6beW37Diywpt-Pd5RcS74DVIyOzBHp8-3cqtkpHbGfM9IJNMmwbPdTdr1fdAAAAVlcrcA==]as an update It is a new year and also a new decade and almost ten years ago I formed futuretext [http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1102917241682&s=1434&e=001oaGh-QUYvZFYPCP6q4G6g7CYG4ZF3xb2Y6jjtjNNK31Ewi-UN33CLKQe4t0CGMTto1a07MMz0IYAm-_3IKG2wqxoUPzCDl47yQxPemCQZMs__NLdwkc7Kw==]. It has been an interesting and also difficult decade of transition and transformation for many of us, including me. We have seen two recessions and a pandemic and also the rise of the Internet. The Internet has been the foundation of futuretext since our business model of publishing, blogging and research would not exist had it not been for the Internet. The impact of the Internet has also been felt on Telecoms. I have long adopted a pragmatic vision of Open Gardens(opening up Telecoms networks) as discussed on my blog Open Gardens [http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1102917241682&s=1434&e=001oaGh-QUYvZFjmbleVMV-KXz9Yv5dy1oKZq0-eYH1YuXRJR0kgwmVbviFl71yYCmyHg6pcY9n3eLadEeM_YTngUEhPC6__BxQRqC_x5UwznSPyOJrSgsgKys2amjcc8b12P9FiuG-jxU=] and that vision is now truly upon us with the iPhone, Android and many more initiatives. On a personal note, the last decade has also seen me being nominated by the World Economic Forum on their global agenda for the future of the Internet, Speaking at Stanford, European parliament among others, Teaching at Oxford, publishing four books and much more. Over the years, the business has grown beyond my personal brand and this year, we will see many more initiatives including books, mobile publishing and an expanded book distribution network. We will continue our work in the USA building on the foundations laid out by Larry Lockhart. And we will also see an expansion of the work I did with Chetan Sharma last year on an innovation model / research report for the Mobile data industry including LTE. My personal research /consulting areas include: Mobility, Smart grids, LTE, Policy, Open systems, Privacy and Cloud computing I continue my globe trotting with Malmo, Paris, Brussels, Zurich, Barcelona, Las Vegas, Munich and Washington on the agenda before April 2010. If you are there, happy to meet Finally, let's keep in touch. I have a diverse network through my activities with Blogging, Policy, World Economic Forum, Conferences, Teaching, Travel and books - and happy to help if I can.
