Stranded at the Airport, but still Connected.

We’re passionate about technology. Yesterday our brand new iPhone 3GS’s arrived (Okay I know, took a while… but I was stuck in contract with the 3G, and James had a Blackberry).

We pride ourselves on being available to our clients beyond normal working hours, you have to when you’re dealing with International brands, global eCommerce with sales coming in 24 hours a day, enterprise level email, business systems that run an entire company’s operations, and time-sensitive marketing deadlines…

Thankfully, we spent some time ‘tooling ourselves up’, so that we could stay connected – always.

For the mobile businessman, Smartphones are ideal. Thousands of apps to install, practically a pocket PC. One stood out for us from the go (can you guess which?)… Take a look at our favourite apps that are already available from the AppStore or built in as standard:

• WIFI – Fast internet, who can live without it now?
• Skype – Make and Receive calls to/from the office number
• WordPress – Managing this website and writing this blog article
• Enterprise Email – communication, full email history, contact address book – all synchronised with our office PCs
• Office calendar – for appointments and dates
• Database tool – Updating and checking client databases
• Server Monitor – Health status of all network services (+ clients’)
• Web Server control panel – For managing websites, email accounts, settings & configurations, and setting up new clients
• Twitter & Facebook – Managing our social marketing campaigns
• Analytics – Reporting on activity, visitor traffic and sales for all of the websites we manage
• Remote Desktop – Log on to home PC to fetch files or client PC to fix issues
• Live Video – Online streaming of live video wherever I am from my phone camera
• And finally… Angry Birds >:)

This is my office.
