Glasgow's tech history
Few names emanate through tech history with more resonance than that of John Logie Baird. Born and bred in Helensburgh some 50 miles north west of the city, he attended the Glasgow and West of Scotland Technical College before moving on to the University of Glasgow.
Despite his degree being interrupted by World War I (he never graduated), the seeds of his success had been sewn. He is widely credited as the inventor of television, being both the first person to produce a live, moving television image and also the first colour television system.
The city now has a fine tradition in computer games; most notably the massively multiplayer social network WeeWorld. With more than 50 million ‘WeeMees’ created, this broadband-based chat and game network partners with everything from Skype to Hotmail and Friends Reunited.
Other success stories include Firebrand Games, responsible for a slew of Nintendo hits including Need for Speed and online racing sensation Trackmania; and Story Mechanics, which create a unique interactive novel of University of Glasgow graduate John Buchan’s classic The 39 Steps.
