Several years back when I started working in the mobile/technology industry it was difficult to get hold of the required information/material. This was mainly due to two reasons; first being that since the technology was new there wasn't much information available and the second being that I found that people were reluctant in sharing information as Information was considered a source of power. I also realised that Information was just starting to explode with many new developments by different organisations, standard bodies, institutes, industry bodies, etc. To keep track of the information and to be able to share it with colleagues I was working with, I started the 3G4G website. I soon realised that I cannot keep track of everything using the website as it was not easy to maintain. To help me with more dynamic stuff, I started the 3G4G blog.
The intention of this blog and the 3G4G website is to act as a reference for me, my colleagues and the people I work with in different projects and to keep track of different topics related to mobile and wireless technology. My belief is that knowledge does not decrease by sharing but only increases once others who use information respond back with more in form of links, comments, feedbacks, etc. As a result this blog and the website is available for viewing by anyone that wants.
What I did not expect is for both the blog and the website to become as popular as it has and as a result, I get a lots of emails, asking questions, asking for advice, press releases, request for information, etc. I am not able to deal with a lot of these emails due to time constraints. The best place for making technical queries and information request is to use Linkedin or Quora.
All the material that I use is generally available on the web or its provided to me by the author/companies. I try my best to give credit, provide back links, etc. to the original sources. If you think that some material used by me violates copyrights or you would want me to remove something then please email me, preferably via Linkedin or by sending an email to zahidtg at yahoo dot com.
