David Terrar’s Summary

I've been described as a web 2.0 entrepreneur, evangelist and blogger. I'm a software guy who has been around in the industry since a time before PCs and when mainframes, rather than the Internet, ruled the earth. Although I'm a "geek" at heart, my company's mantra is "think Business, not Technology". I'm passionate about helping people make use of the latest web 2.0 technology to make their businesses do more for less. I hate waste, and I hate the kind of consultants who want to keep the expertise mystified so they can maintain their expert status (and high fees).

I wear several hats with a common enterprise 2.0 thread. I'm the CEO of D2C, a consulting company that provides social media consulting and Software as a Service, or web based solutions for content, collaboration, web publishing, and online accounting. I'm an Executive Director of ITBrix, the software company that provides a web publishing and collaboration platform called WordFrame for building better web communities. I write a blog called Business Two Zero about applying web 2.0 technology, SAS tactics and guerrilla marketing to business.

I'm an inveterate networker. I'm involved in running London Wiki Wednesdays, I'm one of the founders of the CreativeCoffee Club, and helped start Amplified - the network of networks. Creativity is one of the things I like to talk about, because we don't encourage it enough within our education system, or make it a regular part of the day to day processes of our companies and organisations. I'm also a wannabe writer, working on a book about capturing commercial creativity with two friends.

I'm a native of London's east end, and have always lived in or around the city. I'm currently based in St. Albans with my wife and two children (aged 14 and 16). My interests outside of work include music, film and supporting West Ham United.
