What are Carmi's turn-offs? Arrogance. Self-centredness. Mean-spiritedness. Folks who don't hold the door for others. Or who let you hold the door, and then don't say thank you. People who smile with their mouth but not their eyes.
I'm a journalist and I want to speak to Carmi. What does he comment on? Ooh, everything under the sun. More specifically, he focuses on the convergence point of technology, business and society. Gadgets bore him. The implications of those gadgets on our lives, however, fascinate him to no end, and he's always happy to work with media. He comments extensively on the telecom industry, wireless/mobility, regulatory frameworks, IT/business alignment, data centre/infrastructure, end-user computing (PCs, devices, etc.) and social media. If you're not sure, give him a buzz, as he's always happy to blue-sky new ideas with like-minded journos.

I am a journalist who observes the world from the perimeter before picking up my pen and describing what I see. No more, no less. I believe strongly in random acts of kindness, and know we can all do a better job making our planet a happier place to live. Call me an idealist, but I believe words can help make that happen.Anything else? He survived a stroke. Doctors called it a freak accident. He calls it a wake-up call from the universe, and has written a book about the experience. Know a publisher? Details here.
