Colin Barker
Senior Reporter, ZDNet.co.uk
Brief job description:
Finding good news stories and reporting on them
Areas of expertise:
CRM, ERP and other application areas; storage technology; various areas in hardware along high-end and leading-edge systems
One person I'd love to interview is:
Someone from Microsoft who says something interesting and possibly even true. Bill Gates, even. Right now an interview with Mark Hurd of HP is high on my agenda, but like Mr Gates, will probably prove to be elusive
In 10 words:
It is nice to be paid to cause trouble
By the end of this year...
I will be a year older and perhaps even wiser. (Too much to hope for do you think?)
Most interesting place visited on business:
IBM's research labs in Zurich for professional reasons. Also Taiwan for personal and professional reasons. They probably head the list
