Do you use Mobile Email?
So in the last few years I have become a bit of a mobile email junkie. I think I have been doing mobile email for about 5 years now, I know I’m late to the game compared to some. I had a very interesting conversation with a “high up” from AT&T last night. I was [...]
Google Voice should hire Spinvox for message transcription
I have been using GrandCentral for years and when they announced Google Voice I was elated. I could not wait for the new features including my absolute favorites being SMS and voice mail being transcribed to text and emailed and texted to you.

Emoze First Impressions, Again
One of my favorite mobile related companies, Emoze, just became a client so I’m going to write a few posts about them, this being the first. I like them for a few reasons. First they took the less-then-desirable, built-in Nokia email application and turned it into something quite nice. I’m sure that wasn’t an easy [...]
Interview with Rafi Ton about vufone, CEO of NewACT
I recently returned from Mobile World Congress in Barcelona where I interviewed Rafi Ton the CEO NewACT. I met Rafi because my good friend Harel Shattenstein of TalkingMobile.com set up the interview. We decided to sit outside in the absolutely gorgeous weather and discuss NewACTs mobile application called vufone, the most interesting new app I [...]
