  1. My first ever mid-air tweet brought to you by Norwegian in-flight Wi-Fi. Genius!
  2. Took <15 mins for 6 of us flying Norwegian to get checked in, through security and border control at Stockholm Arlanda airport. Very slick!
  3. @GarminUK advised me: "best option" = reject Forerunner 410 as inherently faulty and return to retailer. Bad PR to disown your own products!
  4. Great service @Halfords_uk. Garmin botched fix of faulty product so Halfords let me return online order in store after 3 mths. Top stuff!
  5. A break with London tradition at Heathrow. Japanese all stood to left of elevators in Tokyo discipline, allowing others to pass on right.
  6. Seeing people drinking beer and wine with their breakfast is strange - that's airports! Sad to be leaving Japan after a fab 2 week adventure
  7. Taking an unusual wedding present on the train. Slightly barking. twitter.com/finventing/sta…
  8. On a bit of a high. Big bosses gave our innovation pitch the green light! At a friend's wedding tomorrow. Then two week Japan holiday. Woop!
  9. London sunshine called for an ice cream. Magnum Infinity. In Fin It Is! twitter.com/finventing/sta…
  10. Felt proud guiding foreign chap to the right tube interchange. Felt stupid when I promptly went the wrong way myself. #tube #stranger
  11. @steveworkman Innovation Centre sounds cool. Tell me all about #thebigm2012 when you get back. Have fun!
  12. My bus driver thinks he's Jenson Button the way he's clipping kerbs. Thankfully we've got no KERS or DRS, at least in this year's bus!
  13. @goochio #geek Scanning the QR code gives Wi-Fi network password so guests don't need to type it. This explains how finventing.com/2012/03/18/use…
  14. Got home to find our Wi-Fi QR code coasters have arrived. Functional geek interior design!? #qrcode #geek #wifi twitter.com/finventing/sta…
  15. At fab Royal Geographical Society talk by wildlife cameraman Doug Allan. Amazing behind-the-scenes stories and images. dougallan.com
  16. @googlejobs Got excited when I saw this email from "Google Wage". Turns out you mean "Wave". Shame. #googlewave twitter.com/finventing/sta…
  17. QR codes added fun to our St Patrick's Day dinner. They helped us share music and photos. Here's how. finventing.com/2012/03/18/use… #qrcode #howto
  18. Apple TV now working. Simultaneous Air Play of music and slide show from iPhone is impressive. As is 1080p HD streaming from Vimeo. Fab.
  19. My first experience of new Apple TV was this terse and un-Apple error message. Humph. #appletv #ux #fail twitter.com/finventing/sta…
  20. The Executive Chairman just stopped by and said a cheery hello to our team. Feeling buoyed up. Good stuff. #leadership
