Background (The market)
• Five years ago, the mobile landscape was, a world apart
from where we are today. While smartphones existed, the
devices were really more like PDAs with a phone built-in,
rather than mobile computing devices as we know them
today.
• There were mobile phone apps, but the app store concept
as we know it now was still years away. And while many
mobile phones had the ability to access the web, the
experience was far different in speed and in scope than it is
today.
Background (The market)
• Now? We’ve transitioned from keypad to touchscreen,
from 2G to 3G broadband, from “social” as an
afterthought, to social as an intrinsic part of the mobile
web…and to a world full of apps.
• Whilst it’s almost impossible to predict the next five
years, we can imagine that mobile devices will
continue to get faster, more complex and slowly but
surely replace workstations and notebooks in a range
or portable/wireless devices.
Mobile advertising is growing
exponentially

Background (The market…

the mobile arena. We need to have a range of services

basic, some more rich, but ultimately, a “mix strategy”…

content distributors… and revenue generators.
