My mind is still bubbling with thoughts set off by the Nokia Design Event. I’ve been talking with the folks behind the Homegrown projects and we’re soon going to have some of them write some articles for us and contribute some videos and photos, to share here.

It’s still our first week in the public eye here at Nokia Conversations and I think we are all hyper-sensitized to all the conversations that are happening out there. Or at least, it seems like the conversations we are stumbling upon are most interesting.

ESPOO, Finland – This week Nokia launched another NFC phone. NFC stands for ‘Near Field Communication’, a short-range radio-based data exchange technology.

San Francisco, USA – Excuse us banging our own drum for a second but, Ewan at SMS Text News gave Nokia kudos for our blogger outreach work. He’s written an article about how different device manufacturers deal with bloggers, which in itself is really cool.

ESPOO, Finland – Woddy Allen said “if you want to make God laugh, tell him about your plans”. So it might have taken us longer than we’d have liked to get to here, but that hasn’t stopped us from being excited by what we’re doing. There’s still much to do, and much we want to do and we’re really only just getting started.

ESPOO, Finland – I’ve been having a bit of trouble finding the right voice for this site. I don’t want to preach, toe the company line, or spit out some corporate monologue. But neither do I want to say things that might cause a cataclysmic shift, such as shaving billions off our market cap or, worse, get myself fired.
You see, running a corporate blog is like being stuck between a rock and hard place.

ESPOO, Finland – To me, a company is like a person. They both have values and ethics
that guide everything they do. But, I just saw (again) the head-count
at Nokia. And, I’m one of 60,000. I should have ant-farm syndrome, but
I don’t.
