Please contact me at ajit.jaokar at futuretext.com
Full details of event as below.
The Mobile Web Megatrends is a unique one day event that addresses the
strategy and best practices relating to key current trends for the
Mobile Web.
The simple idea behind Mobile Web Megatrends is to create a small,
niche event focused on developments that are key to the Mobile Web
currently (2008/2009)
This means that the event will be much more focused and granular.. For
instance - we don't want to talk about 'Nokia' but rather about Nokia
S40 6th edition which has implications for the mass market. Similarly,
Opera Mobile 9.5 is significant due to features such as implementation
of Google Gears and widgets. Thus, the event will have a much more granular,
interactive focus than other events. Some of the topics we will cover
are (note that this is an indicative list only at this stage ..)
• The evolution of the browser(Opera, Nokia)
• Location based services 2.0 - (Cell id databases)
• APIs - network(GSMA, OpenAjax, Bondi)
• Widgets
• Advertising models including analytics
• Mobile social networks
• iPhone (including iStore)
• Android
• Nokia S40 6th edition – the impact on mass market phones
• Flashlite
• Mobile Web demographics – the numbers, uptake figures, impact of
flat rate etc
• Browser plugins
• Enterprise and Mobile Web
• Cloud computing
• Emerging markets
• QR codes and
• Offline browsing
The discussion will focus on the strategy, implementation, competitive
advantages and the pitfalls of these trends.
This is a unique opportunity to get an unbiased viewpoint with the
opportunity to discuss these developments. You can clarify your
thinking from the experience of others and keep the conversation going
through an ongoing attendees only discussion forum
Watch this space for more updates .. The date will be Sep 8, the
venue will be Pacific Film Archive Theater - University of California - Berkley
and the tickets will be at only
$195
Mobile Web Megatrends is brought to you by Ajit Jaokar of futuretext
