About Creative Connectivity

Creative Connectivity is Nick Hunn's blog on aspects and applications of wireless connectivity. Having worked with wireless for over twenty years I've seen the best and worst of it and despair at how little of its potential is exploited.

I hope that's about to change, as the demands of healthcare and transport apply pressure to use wireless more intelligently for consumer health devices and telematics. These are my views on the subject - please let me know yours.
