Just after Le Web this year, Steve Paine<\/a> approached me and asked if I\u2019d be interested in joining the Mid Moves<\/a> team, where a number of bloggers take some new Intel based Mobile Internet Devices out and about to see what they can do.<\/p>\n

So Nicole Simon<\/a> is going to be all business like, Jenn Lee<\/a> is going on a theme park tour of the US and Chippy<\/a> is going on a multi-country tour around Europe. And me?<\/p>\n

As usual I wanted to do something a little bit different. There\u2019s less of a geographical tour to my trip, I\u2019m going to do some meta-exploring around the UK.<\/p>\n

\n

While I don\u2019t know the exact details of where I\u2019m going to end up, I do know the topic. If the internet is becoming something that is almost elemental, then why not use the new mobile internet devices out on the road and have them face the four classical elements of fire<\/em>, water<\/em>, earth<\/em> and air<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I\u2019ll be reporting on the Mid Moves Website<\/a>, as well as some posts here. I suspect Twitter will feature heavily as well, as I\u2019d like to have some of the hi-jinks in the tour suggested by others. It\u2019ll be one day per element, and I\u2019m open to the weird and wild suggestions from the internet.<\/p>\n

It should be obvious that this project has the support of Intel. The devices that the team will be using are currently on the CES show floor. Once James and Kevin<\/a> have had a play with them, they\u2019ll be shipped to us, ready for their trials.<\/p>\n

The fun starts on January 19th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
