Daniel Appelquist’s Summary

I've been working with Internet content since 1989, before most people had heard the word "Internet." I've worked for companies large and small, mostly in on-line content industries. In 1999, I hopped the pond to the UK and I now work at Vodafone Group where I live in the culture clash between new media and telecommunications. I also have spoken at many conferences on the topics of XML, Content Management, Metadata and Mobile Data Services and more recently on the the rise of the mobile Web. I helped to create the W3C Mobile Web Initiative (w3.org/Mobile) where I am co-chair of the Mobile Web Best Practices working group. I founded Mobile Monday London (www.mobilemonday.org.uk) in 2005 and I instigated the mobile2.0 events (www.mobile2event.com) in 2006. I've written one book on developing Web applications with Addison Wesley and I was on the writing team for "Mobile Internet for Dummies."
