Skip Paul and Thread: GG's full disclosure/hubris:

Geoff Goodfellow aspires to be an international restaurant critic and touring DJ, but in
the meantime...

Geoff Goodfellow is a private investor and internationally quoted expert who has been
involved in the computer and communications industries for over 25 years. He
specializes in and advises companies in the areas of strategy, business planning,
development, partnering and publicity as well as technology assessment, product
development, systems integration and services in the wireless, internet and content
arenas.

In 1988 out of a spare bedroom in his home Geoff founded RadioMail Corporation, the first Internet-based electronic-mail connectivity and information distribution service for wireless data, cellular and paging networks. His interest in wireless originated from early experimentation with the University of Hawaii's AlohaNet, the first packet radio network (funded by the US Advanced Research Projects Agency), and from a desire to be productive while enjoying a day at the beach. Geoff grew the business to offices in four continents, and in 1993 Motorola made a major investment in RadioMail. Geoff served as the company's chairman and chief visionary until 1996. RadioMail has been the recipient of many awards for its pioneering wireless services.

Before founding RadioMail, Geoff spent 12 years with the Stanford Research Institute (now SRI International), starting part-time as a system and network "janitor" in 1974 and signing on full time two years later when he dropped out of high school. Over the next decade he moved up the ladder to senior researcher and principal investigator specializing in computer security and networking in SRI's Computer Science Laboratory. At SRI Geoff was involved in the development of the Internet (and its predecessor the ARPANET) as well as mobile communications, packet radio, computer security and networking systems.

Geoff has testified twice before US Congressional Subcommittees: the Subcommittee on Telecommunications and Finance, on radio spectrum competitive bidding (April 1993); and the Subcommittee on Transportation, Aviation and Materials, on telecommunications security and privacy (September 1983). He is co-author of "The Hacker's Dictionary -- A Guide to the World of Computer Wizards," published by Harper & Row.

Articles about Geoff Goodfellow and quotes from him have appeared in many publications world-wide including the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Forbes, Fortune, Success, Information Week and the South China Morning Post.
