Recently, whilst talking about BLE beacons and my recent endeavours with them, Wojtek Borowicz from Estimote and I crossed paths and he was kind enough to agree to answer some of my questions on Bluetooth Beacons for Dev Diner. BLE beacons are a very exciting technology and one which is really starting to take off! I'm hoping to have a few more interviews on this space in the weeks to come - stay tuned!
