Graeme Sutherland
Co-founder of Nodestone
Integration and Development Lead
Director, Engineering
I’m a communicator and communication technologist. I love to enable, enhance and integrate human to human communication, whether face to face or via the social web and social media. Social web integration and development comes naturally to me.
Mostly, these days, I’m using social media stuff, web development and engineering to work with CO2 and resource measurement social — calculators, widgets, whole web appications for carbon measurement.
I’m a capacity builder by nature. It just makes sense to spread the knowledge around and help us all jump up.
I’m a communications engineer by degree and for as long as I can remember, I was always the person building communication platforms for myself and others, beginning with radio transmitters, student newspapers and bulletin boards. The coming of the social web delights me but I’m realistic: the social web is led by technology at the moment – sometimes the human need is obscured. We need to keep that in mind.
I have a background as an: telephony engineer, hardware designer, advanced technology researcher, software team leader, strategic technology consultant, management consultant, systems engineer, system architecture, project manager and software development methdologist, group process facilitator, freelance software engineer, web application developer, web entrepreneur, startup founder and CTO/COO.
My latest list of technical skills, by tag and buzzword.
