Daniel's experience working with IBM, Myer, NAB and the Metropolitan Fire Brigade is sure to provide a sound basis for relating to the members of Enterprise Java Australia on how to approach development for the Android mobile platform.
Nathan de Vries - iPhone
Much like the idea that the best camera is the one that's with you, Nathan believes that the most exciting tech. is in and around the devices we carry with us every day. For this reason, Nathan has chosen the path of a freelance iOS developer, working with organisations who are trying to wrap their heads around the staggering trend towards mobile. He cut his teeth on WAP, J2ME & Symbian, but dropped everything in mid-2008 when Apple released the iPhone SDK. He never looked back.
Nathan maintains his sanity & creative energy by working with other highly motivated people in a fantastic co-working space in Surry Hills, Sydney.
