Nokia held their annual Amsterdam get together recently under the imaginatively titled label of “Nokia World 2007“
It being the ‘premier global conference for the mobility and internet industries’, of course ALL of the top bloggers were invited;
Stefan Constantinescu of IntoMobile, Darla Mack, Rafe Blandford of All About Symbian and of course Ricky Cadden - aka Symbian-Guru.
(my invite, it seems, was lost in the post - ahem)
Anywhoo - our mate Ricky is a fan of SpinVox y’see…
Not only having blogged about us before but also having once invited yours truly along for an episode of ‘Chatting with the Guru‘
Ricky was dead keen to see how he could ‘live-blog’ the entire conference through SpinVox, straight to his blog.
Well - after much to-ing and fro-ing, and talking over the benefits of blogging vs micro-blogging - Ricky decided the best way forward would be to use Social Networks through SpinVox to post directly to his Jaiku which would then in turn appear on the Symbian-Guru homepage.
Awesome.
Non-intrusive, live and up-to-date news straight to his homepage and ALL with very little effort indeed.
Here are a few quotes from the day - spoken through SpinVox:
“Just got some more information on new mobile web server from Nokia. Really cool stuff.“
“Watching a preview of the Star Wars Engage game, demo’d(?) on a Nokia N73.
“Watching a nearly live demo of the new S60 Touch Interface. Videos to follow.“
and of course - in typical Guru-fashion -
“Getting a coffee between sessions.” 
This was a great learning experience for both parties (Ricky and D2) and is yet another fantastic example of how our customers are taking SpinVox products and using them in great, new ways.
Thanks for choosing SpinVox Ricky, oh… and Happy Birthday too!
