– UPDATE-
Lucien Engelen sent us a mind map about how his life has changed due to Mobile:
tweet this
At the same time mobile gave me rest (always connected) and unrest (always e-mail hassle at hand). Mobile gave me frustration and inspiration, nonsense and knowledge , hate and love! I like extremes so i love my mobile!
(On my way to Ratum, The Netherlands)
I have to say that it has changed my life certainly. First of all, I am an average user of mobile, I think a target audience, both personally and professionally. Through Maarten’s introduction of Twitter (which I use on my mobile phone, both through text and mSlandr) it has opened up the ever day lives of people who I can not see because of our distance, my sister (Lori), brother in law (Maarten), mother, etc. It also keeps me connected through email, and phone of course to everything regardless of where I am. As I have offices 3 hours away from each other, I am able to stay connected regardless of where I am. Of course, it’s been tough as I have found myself obsessed with all of the above, keeping me multitasking, tough to relax. But overall, I think the introduction to Twitter and Mobyfish has been the best discovery to keep my family close, regardless of distance.

Being mobile has helped me stay connected to work no matter where I am and I can now spend time at our two locations and not miss a customer’s call. It does have it’s downside, however, and that’s an obsession with always having my phone with me, day or night:)
