Friends, this blog has been archived. At least for now.

It has been a truly great ride here at S60 blogs. Oh, why? Well, as they say, the best part of blogging is who you get to meet. Thanks to blogging, I have met loads of brilliant people around the planet (face to face and virtually) and even got invited to a lunch with OPK himself. And even more, I think I got my latest job as the manager of Nokia Beta Labs largely thanks to it. But lately, I just haven't had time to update this particular blog properly. Moreover, in the new role, I don't find myself thinking specifically about S60 too much anymore. Instead, the ideas I get excited about nowadays tend to be something completely different... I find myself ranting and raving in Nokia intranet about web stuff, and especially about some particular social aspects of it: co-creation, harnessing collective intelligence, community-building, etc. Therefore, I decided to call it a day.

Anyway, let's keep in touch!! Oh, and don't forget to subscribe to http://betalabs.nokia.com/blog (shameless plug).

Ps. free tip for all you kids out there: when you are selecting an URL for your web presence, choose something you can keep. Trust me. You know, this blog is still in top-3 in all search engines for keywords S60 applications, S60 apps, and, strangely, top-1 match for Google Image search for network. It takes a while - and a lot of work - to get there. But that guarantees you thousands of visitors a month without doing anything, not to mention the RSS subscriber base. Oh well...

Bad to see you going, but sometimes life gets into the way of enjoyment.

I hope that you will change your mind and come back some time blogging...

Regards!

Thanks folks! Most probably I will keep blogging (and other means of online conversations), it just happens somewhere else as it is likely to be something completely different...

Well, there are 254 Tommis working for Nokia, so theoretically, you have a chance. (on a more serious note, nope. This has always been a personal blog of mine)
