I'm just some guy. I live in Shanghai, China, I play with the fine folks @ Raincity Studios. I'm learning how to be a better, wiser person as I grow older, and like John Lennon once said "sometimes I play the fool".
Raincity and Bryght in the Thunderbird UBC School Journal

A few weeks ago while we hosted the first joint drupal training session between Bryght and Raincity, Anna Olejarczyk interviewed Krug and I for her upcoming article on Web 2.0 start-ups in Vancouver.
The article came out last week, here's a portion of it.
Robert Scales, CEO and founder of Raincity Studios, says that people who are in the Web 2.0 industry are more like “private investors.�
There’s not much public investment going on, but in this goldrush stage, there are a number of young entrepreneurs being picked up for their product. Yahoo acquiring Flickr, Google buying YouTube and News Corp. obtaining MySpace – these are all large companies that are getting the missing pieces of the puzzle that will make them leading edge in this new technology frenzy says Scales.
If there’s no public investment, then there’s no Web 2.0 bubble argues
It was a pleasure meeting Anna.. I never know how to deal with interviews! Perhaps I should get someone to coach me, anyone interested in mentoring me in PR and communication?
This year has been a full learning experience and allowed me to work on personal and business development, I will most likely post more about this over the months few weeks as we wrap up the year and I gear up to post another Scales' annual review.
