Sunday Telegraph, LBC, London Today, CBS, JTV, Radio 4 - October 2004

A job advert I posted in 2004 looking for a "non-smoker" and featured in a Sunday Times article lead to a phone interview with Nick Ferrari on LBC radio, and TV interviews with London Today, CBS and Japanese TV. A few years later I was asked to appear on a chat show on Irish TV which was debating the topic of smoking in the workplace.

Power Food - TV Show - Filmed August 2000

Hannah and I were featured on a TV show where we were followed around London as we had breakfast and lunch meetings with clients, played tennis (as you do) in the afternoon and went out in the evening with friends for a slap up meal. It was a fascinating experience into the making "reality" TV and an early pilot of "Made in Wandsworth". :)

Panel Guest at FOTE 2009 - London

At Future of Technology in Education Conference in 2009, I was asked to appear on a panel of guests discussing the pros and cons of cloud computing, specifically around security and trust.

It was an interesting debate and in a question related to data security and trust, I discussed the possibility of separating cloud application services from data, giving more choice, freedom and security.
