Everbody knows a Dave Delaney. Here's ours. Seriously.

Griffin Technology: iPhone uber alles

We were going to highlight a Griffin product, but what the heck, take your pick. The Keebler elves have nothing on these guys.

Griffin Technology says little, makes repeated splashes

Erin Lawley's highly readable piece in The City Paper on stealthy Griffin Technology doesn't add a lot to the empirical record, but seems to provide some insight into the culture around equally stealthy Paul Griffin, just as he's apparently moving to the passenger seat.

iPhone apps in Mid-TN

The Tennessean's iPhone app roundup this morning includes mention of locals Firefly Logic, Griffin Technology, gpsAssassin and others. Here are earlier VNC stories on gpsAssassin and Change:Healthcare.

Shwew! Got it: iPhone apps abound

Friends and family of Nashville iPhone app developers who weren't in yesterday's story about gpsAssassin have been writing to point out other hot or maybe hottish iPhone plays by locals, including, but not limited to, SmartVue Corporation's iPhone surveillance extension...Griffin Technology (locally based national maker paraphernalia for iPod, iTouch)...Brentwood publisher Magellan Press Inc.'s LocalEats app, et cetera, et al. Thanks. Would love to hear from more small-screen app developers.

Banking innovation focus of Owen program

David Owens (left), who briefly served as president of local phenom Griffin Technology, but decided he preferred the freedom and ferment of academe, returned to VU's Owen GSM not so long ago. Now, as head of faculty for executive-development programs, Owens is touting the expansion of the OGSM's relationship with BAI, a banking association, and offering new, more innovation-oriented programs. The VU release is here.

Ultra-quiet Griffin Technology now Tweeting

Tomorrow makes a month since Griffin Technology, arguably Nashville's quietest big technology company -- driven by inventing new gadgets for iPod users -- began tweeting as griffintech. Blame it all on Nashvillian Dave Delaney (at left), the promoter-evangelist Griffin hired Sept. 8 as its social-media coordinator. Delaney tells us through his blog that he's also still speaking at public events, consulting on marketing and threatening to create more events akin to those he's co-invented locally, including BarCamp and PodCamp. Some other Nashville companies are gettin' it, apparently. E.g., PassAlong Networks CEO Dave Jaworksi is into tweeting, while others, like Gibson Guitar, are doing things like launching a Second Life 3-D community.
