Hi, my name is Malcolm Lambert. I studied physics at UNSW and the only subject I failed was Computer Science. 30 years later I'm working full- time on this project, the success of which is entirely dependent on computer science.
I worked in atmospheric science for a while then, whilst building a house, I had the idea to scan a bunch of irregular-shaped rocks then get some smart software to fit them together in the virtual word to provide a 3D plan for building a structure in the real world. I might have only one good idea in my life so I'm pushing this one to its, as yet unknown, logical conclusion. 4 years ago I naively thought it would be good enough just to be an inventor then 2 years ago I realised I'm an entrepreneur and now I think I have to become a business man. I'm hoping I can get away without ever having to wear a suit...is it possible or am I still naive? I started a company www.intresto.com.au which is just me and a couple of smart software engineers working as contractors. I'm good at project management but a hopeless programmer. I'm looking forward to the day when I have some working software to sell or attract the attention of investors. I've been going to Open Coffee in Sydney and met lots of smart people. If the energy and ideas are anything to go by, the Australian tech scene may hit the ground running at the end of this recession. I'd prefer to be strolling through the bush than sitting in front of a computer, or at least have an office with a view of a place where I'd like to be walking. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Silicon Beach Australia" group.
