Here's what I'm involved in at the moment (other than this site)...

Woobius

Woobius is a project communication and collaboration hub for architects, like Basecamp for Architects. It's different from more generic tools like Basecamp and Huddle in that it's tailored to the needs of construction projects, which tend to have a lot more drawings and files flying around than typical projects, and need more rigorous version control procedures. It's different from other construction project hubs like Aconex and 4projects in that it's built for architects rather than contractors, it's easy and quick to learn and use, and it's priced much more competitively.

GrantTree

The purpose of GrantTree is to help companies both large and small to get funding from the government. Currently, we are focused on the HMRC R&D Tax Credits scheme for UK SMEs and large companies, but we are also looking at other possible grants (particularly prospective grants that might help startups which haven't paid any tax yet). If you're running a startup that builds stuff (software, hardware, or anything else that's basically your product, for which you own the IP), get in touch and let's chat.

danieltenner.com

danieltenner.com is my other blog. I am currently figuring out how this and swombat.com fit together, but I suspect most of my blogging activity will be on here from now on.

Tenner Consulting

I offer consulting services, particularly to early stage startups. I can help plan out your product development, figure out the right platform and strategy for it, help you with hiring the right people (I am scarily good at identifying good hackers), or even project manage the development for you. If this sounds of interest, get in touch.

Public speaking

Once upon a time, I was terrified of public speaking. Nowadays, it is still something that scares me (my pulse rises up to 150 just before giving a talk), but it's something I enjoy and want to do as often as possible. I've spoken at some larger events (ChristmasCrunch, for one... but the recording quality is terrible), and at a number of others since. If you are running an event that I have some relevance to, and are looking for a speaker, let me know.
