MobileMe Executive Appointed CTO at Thumbplay
- 3 Comment
Apple’s MobileMe technology executive has been appointed chief technology officer at Thumbplay, a cloud-based music company.
Pablo Calamera was director of Apple’s MobileMe and spent ten years at Apple during his career. As CTO at Thumbplay, he will report to Evan Schwartz, the CEO of Thumbplay.
Calamera will oversee all technology initiatives at Thumbplay. The company is in private beta in the United States and offers unlimited, on-demand access to songs. It is currently available for select BlackBerry devices but will eventually be offered for Android and the iPhone sometime this year.
I am hoping that this means Apple will have someone else in charge of MobileMe who will make changes to the service. I had a free trial of MobileMe several months ago and as an Apple user I expected to love it. Instead, I did not like it at all and found it to be rather user-unfriendly. Many people are satisfied with MobileMe, but I think it needs improvement.
