About my phone and online communication

This page describes how I conduct my communication.

Jean under the tree

Email communication is best for me

If I am at home or office I am usually working all day long and answering emails to my business clients. My communication is thus focused on email.

You may arrange meetings by email with me easier than by using phone.

You may easiest reach me by email.

Feel free to use email to send me video, voice, or pictures. Email can carry any kind of media.

For your safety I do not recommend you using Google or Yahoo, I recommend you using fully encrypted email service like Proton Mail.

I am answering emails upon the first availability. If I am doing anything else, or if I am in a meeting or focused doing the work, I will not answer your email until I get the next available period of time.

And I will answer all of my emails.

Chat communication

I do have my business chat and I use it for private chatting as well. It is software and server installed by myself. I know myself, and I know you, and we may chat that way. There is no third party involved and no third party company that I do not know.

That also means that I do not use proprietary popular chat software and will never do for privacy and safety reasons. You better learn the facts. I do not wish to release private information to companies I do not know.

Chat is used only for real time coordination, and if chat is not available, please use email. I am on XMPP chat and my username is louis@m.syogm.com. You may get your username from me, and you can chat with me.

You may find any XMPP or “Jabber” application and use it to connect to me.

I will answer all of the chat I could see, but there is no guarantee that I will see the chat. If you do not get my answer, write the email, as email is almost guaranteed to be seen.

Speech server

I have personal speech server installed, so you may speak online by using Internet with me. Android application is Mumla and you may ask me to get settings to connect to speech server. There is no third party company involved, it is me who is providing speech service for myself and business.

Turn on the “Push To Talk” option, it works similarly like walkie-talkie.

Phone communication

I may not be answering in real time on phone. If there is a meeting, I may reject the call. This should not bother you. I am calling back or contacting people by SMS and finding out what was the call about. Phone is not my main communication and this is for the reason of my work. As if I am working, I am typing and writing emails, or preparing presentations or business plans. I cannot talk at any time. I have some free time which I use for phone communication.

Please be patient with your expectations that I answer phone at any time of a day. Additionally I work with the world and people would call me all time, so I keep phone often silent until the time period arrives that I may talk.

SMS messages

Your SMS messages may appear on my computer screen. I may not be watching the phone and phone may be completely silent. By using SMS messages you may actually reach me easier.

Pleae use encrypted SMS as network providers may be corrupt and people may be reading the SMS.

Recommended application is Silence and you may find on that page the link to Download APK or Android Package, so that is where you can get encrypted SMS.

I will not share private information over unencrypted SMS.

If I do not answer SMS, send me email, that is guaranteed to work. SMS can even fail in the network, do not assume bad faith if SMS is not answered.

Two-way communication

This is probably most interesting. The reason why people get in good relation is because of two-way communication. That is when one person originates and tells something, other one receives, but equally originates and communicates. But if other person does not originate communication, but only acknowledges it, but lacks initiation and origination, that is where the communication gets boring. Think about it.

Online websites for communication

I don’t share much of my personal information through websites as I do not like website operators having access to private information. For that reason I will tell that you contact me by email as to keep privacy.
