Our own Maureen Hall was caught on camera at this month’s Mobile Monday. At this event, representatives of local mobile companies had 4 minutes each to pitch their ideas. Their ideas varied from mobile phone applications to using GPS navigation for more than just directions. For example, one company had a product which can take content that was created for the web and minimize the design of it so that the same content will fit nicely on a cellphone or PDA. Another company has a product which can use your phone’s tracking system to find local houses that are for sale or rent.
It’s no denying that the future of technology will be in your pocket. With the iPhone selling over 15 million units, it is obvious that consumers want a PC to go. This opens the door for millions of cell phone centered applications and this will create more jobs and opportunities in this field. There’s no question that Mobile Monday will continue to grow in popularity as more companies realize the potential market out there for cell phone software.
