Welcome to On the Internet of Things.

The purpose of this blog, is to keep people informed on what is happening in Internet of Things standardization, technology and business from an insider’s view. I have the pleasure of watching a technical and business revolution in the Internet happen from the inside, as a day job! As an early researcher in embedded IP, and later starting the world’s first 6LoWPAN networking company Sensinode, the last decade has been extremely interesting. The great part is that this was only the beginning. Activities in the IETF, the new IPSO Alliance, and a business awakening to embedded IP and WSN technology are starting to make the Internet of Things a reality.

Through this blog I will be sharing the inside story on Internet of Things developments through my activities at Sensinode, the IETF, the IPSO Alliance, the SENSEI project, open-source projects, and a touch of common sense opinion.

Enjoy!
Zach Shelby

    Hi Steve,

    Sensinode is based in Oulu (600 km from Helsinki). Our Research Center, where I am is located is in Vuokatti (500 km from Helsinki). We happen to have a downhill ski resort 500m away from the office and beautiful nature – good reason to visit? Check out http://www.vuokatti.fi

    Thanks Umair,
    Maybe because its not a sensor net blog ;-) Actually I think personal blogs are easier for comments, there is a real person there.
