About Me
Malcolm Charlaw
My name, as the domain suggests, is Malcolm Charlaw.
I’m from the North East of England, born in Durham City.
I have been involved in technology since doing a computer course at school. Learnt how to program in BASIC and 6502 machine code. It was fun learning on the Commodore Pet, BBC Micro and then the Amiga. It’s a whole different game now with Windows, Apple, Unix, Linux, having experience in the first three, but now there are probably others that I haven’t come across.
Over the years, I’ve been working as a computer contractor which has taken me all around the UK. During that time, I’ve met a lot of great people, it has and continues to be a great experience.
Now I’m in the Partnering to Success programme, I have already met some great people online with some great support. Looking forward to developing this site to its full potential!!
I have been with my partner Yvonne for over 20 years and make a great team. We enjoy travel and have enjoyed Germany, Turkey, Paxos (just south of Corfu), France, Belgium and Luxembourg. I can speak some german and that has helped immensely on our travels. Surprisingly, there are a lot of Turkish people who have German connections and speak the language, so it has been a good way to practice my german!!

Hi Malcolm and welcome to the program. You aren’t far from John then if you’re still in Durham or have you moved since? 🙂 Yes, it’s challenging work is internet marketing as you’ll see but I’m sure you’re going to do very well and thanks for the pointer to WPTouch. As you say, we all need to be catering a lot more to the mobile market now with our sites…it is absolutely huge!
Best regards,
Chris

Hi Malcolm
Thanks for your email this morning.
I’m delighted to hear you have found a programme that works for you. With Barclays creating an app to pay money using smart phones, you can take it that Chris’s comments on the use of mobile phones and marketing will be absolutely on the money.
Good luck to you.
I’m really pleased you felt that my conversation with you helped inspire you.
As ever, Simon
Hi Simon
