Ewan MacLeod’s Summary

Blogging, community and mobile expert. I'm pretty nifty with the video camera and editing too (hence why I started Mobile Developer TV recently).

I'm an entrepreneur. Founded a series of successful companies, most operating in the interactive space. Raised $1m back in 1999 to do just that.

I sold the last company I was involved with for $24m.

I'm also a dab hand at PHP & MySQL, along with Linux/Unix admin. This has enabled me to create a lot of the products and services that underpin the companies I've started.

Comfortable operating at board level. I'm an excellent advisor, having been around the block.

You can find more about me here: http://www.ewan.net/about/

If you'd like to meet, drop me a note. I'm usually based in London or San Francisco.
