Cornered!
Cornered! is a blog devoted, most of the time anyway, to telecommunications: local and global issues, technology, people and trends from the perspective of someone who's been reporting, analysing and commenting on the industry since the dark ages (BC - before competition). Sometimes serious, sometimes flippant, sometimes frivolous. Controversial, analytical, informative, amusing, but never boring; a vehicle for examinations of important issues and observations on my encounters and experiences in an industry where polarised views and hyperbole are the norm.

It named the first of these deals as being with Mobile Alliance a mobile phone marketing group set up by some of the giant London based WPP Group's Australian companies.

Now it just so happens that Ogilvy Worldwide is also part of the WPP Group...
