GSM Association and Mobile Advertising

On May 22nd a press release from GSM Association states that it will push for a “common standard, measurement, and code of conduct for Mobile Advertisement”. You may want to read the original press release by following this link. The first thing I was wondering about while reading the Press Release is why the GSMA […]

Innovation funnel and funny services

When I went through this article from Digital Chosunibo I could not do anything else that roll on the floor laughing. SK Telecom has launched a new service dedicated to fishermen that will allow them to monitor the depth and temperature of the water where they are fishing and will show them the location of […]

I have recently read a very good post from the guys at The Mobile Technology Weblog titled “Killer Apps Wanted for 3G“.

The main thing is: You and I both know itâ€™s true. Almost every CEO out there needs some to stand up […]

How hard is to push innovation?

This morning I was flying from Milan to Rome and, as always, I was looking at which mobile phones people were using and at what they were doing with their mobiles. I always do this kind of exercise while I found myself in a crowdy place. You will always learn something. I was in an […]

Mobile Operating Systems, something is (slowly) changing

The market scenario for mobile Operating Systems today can be divided in three categories: Plenty of proprietary Real Time Operating System almost closed to third parties. Symbian, including UIQ.
