Hi All, As some of you may already know, I've moved to Manchester.
I'll save you the horror stories of shouting down the phone at BT because I won't get a phone line till May now. Which means no broadband internet at home :( only 3g dialup (yep I'm missing my torrents/podcasts already) But for backstage, only a little will change. The little change is a slight emphases on doing more in the north. This isn't to say London and the South will be forgotten, we just want to think about the large community of developers/designers who are not based in the south. I'll also be back and forth on the non-wifi enabled virgin trains (when they going to sort that out?) every 2-3 weeks. So don't be surprised if I pop up at MiniBar this Friday for example. Talking of which, I'll be at these over the next month.

Its becoming easier to convince people that it’s very important and now we're very close to a whole suite of api's. I'm also having a leaving do on 26th April (right in-between the telegraph dev thing) if your interested in giving me a proper send off - http://shortenurl.com/2uolz Cheers, Ian Forrester This e-mail is: [] private; [x] ask first; [] bloggable Future Media & Technology Director BC5 C3, Media Village, 201 Wood Lane, London W12 7TP email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] work: +44 (0)2080083965 mob: +44 (0)7711913293 - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
