Here’s what I do
I write for FoneHome, a site dedicated to all things mobile (phone, that is). I’m responsible for digging out the most interesting smartphone and tablet news, reviewing handsets and providing guidance on the best apps and games for each platform. From time to time I’ll also lend a hand on other Republic sites that require smartphone expertise.

Stuff you need to know!

Biggest creative hero:
Brian Eno. No, David Mitchell (the author, not the comedian). No, Shigeru Miyamoto. Some unholy amalgamation of the three

Most indispensable tool:
My right fore-finger, with which I do all my typing and back-scratching

Dogs or cats:
Some kind of mutually assured destruction would be just fine

Favourite possession:
My Denon stereo

Dream project:
Top 100 holiday locations in the world. Anyone want to commission me?

Something unusual about yourself:
I’m intolerant to cream but fine with cheese

What did you want to be when you grew up:
A man of leisure

The one thing everyone should know how to make:
Proper coffee

A word you just made up, and what does it mean:
Filobumble – to trip over thin pastry

Something you want to do before you die:
Write a book, master a language, learn an instrument – all the usual stuff I know I won’t get around to
