Who is Darryl?
The owner and founder of Ireckon….
an internet old hand, a father and husband, a marketer, salesman, public speaker, fanatical rugby and AFL supporter and a student of many things…
When he eats dog food, he looks like this: Darryl as a dog.
My life story is probably as interesting as yours, so let’s not get into it in that much depth here. What is more interesting are my passions and what I do day to day that offers me the chance to meet fantastic people and play in the webisphere 365 days a year.
Since the first chance i got to play online using Lynx and scouring a local university file system, through the launch of browsers and all the way to the wonderous world of web 2.0 i have loved the way technology can provide a communication platform to break down flat world thought and open up the universe to a totality of possibilities.
I get to work with people every day and help them to use the web for their profit (and mine too), but more than that I love to get immersed in how they do business and what technology can do to help. In many cases I spend time talking business not web, but having a passion for what I do and a few dollops of salesman in my bloodstream means I can’t but ask hundreds of questions to understand what people do.
The learning goes on every day. At ireckon - ireckon (yes we use our brand like this every day in every possibly way) I learn 1-100 things every day: about the web, technology, people, staff, me, law, design, me, humanity, love, me, grey hair, books, friends … where should I stop.
As I have been heard to say… I will stop learning when I am dead (although for some that is when it begins), and I will sleep when I am dead.
The web and sleep just don’t seem to go together.
