Event: Something Big Happening With Nokia Tomorrow? New Nokia Messaging Solutions. Virtual Event Invite Inside.

You might have seen the news that on Tuesday 13th April (tomo) Nokia will be unveiling some new messaging solution.

Here’s an e-invite from the PDF file I got sent. The link is events.nokia.com/everyoneconnect. and the virtual event starts at 9am GMT.

And on the second page there was this messaging/conversation icons

Event: Going to Barcelona for the weekend?!

I’m still not exactly sure what I’ll be doing, WOM’s Katie is keeping it all quite secret. 🙂

The itinerary is supposed to arrive in the morning so I’ll update when I get that.

But essentially I’m going off to Barcelona (home of, amongst many things, MWC!) Friday evening, with WOMWorld’s Lydia and Adam along with SymbianWorld’s Norman John, S60 Inside’s Roman Schweigler, (and another person from Coventry, I forgot who it was sorry >_<).

What are we doing? Again, I don’t exactly know. There was mention of something about behind the scenes shoot for an advert….how people use technology…something like that. I’m not sure if this has anything to do with the hands advert down in Middlesex last week with Nokia/WOM (That one, apparently my hands could have been in a video but I was otherwise engaged with Uni stuffs…)

Boarding passes are printed, passport ready, bag kinda packed.

I’ve just got a few meetings to go to tomorrow and work to submit then I’m heading over to Bristol Airport for a 5 something PM flight.

What on earth is happening Tomorrow on Thursday, 21st January 2010?! What’s Nokia/Ovi got cooking?

As you may have undoubtedly heard, Nokia’s got something going on with Ovi on Thursday, 21st January 2010, 09:45am GMT.

Events are being held in London, as well as NY, Moscow, Paris, Mexico City and Berlin with an invite looking like the one below:

If you head over to http://events.nokia.com/countdown/ you’ll see a clock ticking down

London Loopback project and Nokia N85 unboxing

On Friday I got a call from Katie and Dominic from WOMWorld about a possible project this Thursday in London. It’s called Loopback, and as the title implies it’s about going back to something. In this case, the Nokia N85.

What will we do with it? Well with Chris (from WOMWorld.com/Nokia) we’ll be working with a school showing the teachers and pupils how to use the N85 for capturing video/pictures and using services like Ovi Share and PC Suite.

WOM have sent over the N85 to familiarise myself with it…

Event: Nokia Signpost London – Good Things attendees

This is obviously me there with my Lion. Haha. It's actually one of the statues at Victoria Memorial, London

Here are a selection of photos of the attendees on last week’s Good Things event in London, courtesy of WOMWorld.

There’s a gallery at the bottom as wordpress might break if I try to insert all the photos individually.

The gallery consists mostly of four destinations:

• first the boat that was privately hired to cruise the Thames, have some drinks and dinner
• Cityhall for the press launch of Good Things with Alexandra Burke and the Press Machine
• Site of the Ovi Good things arrow – the main reason for the entire event
• Ends with a trip to the Nokia Flagship Store and a photoshoot with the Nokia CityMan Antitheft.

If I get the chance, I’ll edit up the videos taken during the event too.

The event was fantastic; what WOM and Nokia planned out was brilliant. But best of all, it was an absolute blast to meet these guys.

On the boat – final destination of the Good Things Hunt! Left to right: Jon, Michael, Roman Taimas, Katie, Jay, Christian, Ibrahim, Varun, Jerome, Lydia, Glenn and Dominic. I’d like to say Tom was taking the photo but he was actually downstairs (only realised when he came up after everyone disbanded) – this was held by the Gorillapod, wrapped around that silver pole.

Nokia Wedding: Stay online as this wedding happens!

After an exceedingly busy day yesterday, an evening nap before a blogpost turned into an 9 hour snooze.

What happened 9 hours ago that needed a blogpost? Well, something about a Nokia Wedding:

From WOMWorld: Stay Online as this wedding happens: Hey Jay, If there’s one wedding you go to this year make it this one – you can attend virtually and it’s definitely something you’re not going to want to miss 🙂 See you there, Tom

So – the details:

• Mr and Mrs Nokia
• Marriage of their daughter
• Sally Powell
• to
• Mr A.T. Noon [an anagram?]
• at
• North by North West Chapel
• www.youtube.com/nokia
• Connecting couples since 1971*
• on Thursday 29th October 2009
• at 10am GMT

Also, if you’ve been following on twitter: @SIGNPOSTLONDON, you may have seen this:

So make sure you tune in at 10:00:00 GMT at www.youtube.com/nokia

Coincidentally, there’s an actual website about North West Chapel (not related to Nokia and Maps, but their main page photo is of a map and compass)

*First commercially operated mobile phone network in Finland went online in 1971, as a result of Nokia’s work with Salora Oy – thinking too much?

Update:

It’s a video in the series of #onlineasithappens N900/N97 mini ads. Love them! update 2: it’s not just that – there seems to be more to this campaign

Check out the other videos:

Update 2:

Video: Nokia Signposts – Behind the scenes of the arrow and crane (Part 2) The Control Centre

Following yesterday’s post on the behind the scenes of the site of the Good Things Arrow and Crane, this second video now takes a look at the heart – or be it – the brain that’s sorting out all those messages that appear on the arrow itself.

Nokia Event: Good Things starting today!

If you’ve been following a few posts [here, here and here] about the upcoming event in London, you’ll know that some Good Things are starting today!

• I’ll be tweeting away so check out @jaymontano for coverage on what’s happening – they do get pretty odd/random if I’m not actually in the middle of anything Nokia specific.

• I’ve learnt this time to keep one phone specifically JUST for twitter so I’ll leave some other device do the filming/photo-taking (perhaps N82/other N97/Camera) leaving a steady stream of tweets that hopefully won’t be hindered by being occupied with filming or battery death.

• I’m going to be leaving Cardiff at 8:55 arriving at Paddington around 11, getting to Glouster Road at XX and meeting everyone at the hotel, hopefully around noon to start getting to the Good Things at 1pm.

• That’s if I can catch myself some sufficient ZZZZs first!

Remember that on Friday there’ll be a session with the X product manager (I’m not 100% certain what model X is). If you have any questions, please fire away.
