The Rapid Cycle
• Mobile Internet Computing is the first computing cycle to be on the go.
• Rise of 3G & technologies boosts consumer shift to Smartphones and thus more efficient communication
– 3G (soon 4G) is better for us all (speed and cost)
– In 2010, 3G has reached the penetration point in the consumer market
• “Regarding pace of change, we believe more users will likely connect to the Internet via mobile devices than desktop PCs within 5 years”– iphone&iTouch reached 57 mil by Q9, outpacing
all desktop computing adoption.
• Japan example: In 2000, Telecom dominates over Mobile Internet (only 3% Market Value), but by 2009 Mobile Internet rose to 22&
iPhone
• Raised the bar for mobile technology
– Ease of use & quality
– Wi-Fi
– 2000K apps & 2B+ downloads
• Increasingly about data, not voice (calling plans, etc.)
– iPhone is leader in mobile devices in terms of data
Important Developments
• In a year and a half (May ‘08 – Dec. ‘09) there were rapid developments/announcements.
• Consumers now expect to “get what they want when they want it, from the palm of their hand…”
– Twitter, Skype, Foursquare, Facebook
• Skype: VoIP (voice over Internet Protocol) makes talking on the phone free– With 521mm+ users, it would be the largest
carrier in the world.
• Twitter: On-the-go tracking of thoughts; never stop communicating with someone– Monetizing with ads resembling tweets
• Foursquare: Taking Twitter a step further; is it “Big Brother”-esque?
• The giant of the new mobile communication platforms; leading social networking platform in the world.
• “In-the-clouds” content: shift from mainframe computing to client-server based…a “digital locker”
• Facebook has it all: Ubiquitous Computing
