MOBile Mentality: What’s Next?

I’ve been away a while, apologies. I little hiatus, but not without reason –

I’ve spent the past four weeks thinking about MOBile mentality and how I’ve fallen susceptible to something I’ve always disliked – regurgitating news and thinking in one space.

Sure I know mobile really well, but I also know social, web, interactive, etc etc. I had to return to why I chose to write about mobile in the first place – it’s the new thing, it’s the next trending thing. The more I write about it, the more apparent it becomes that the trend is catching up to me. What’s next? Well it’s the fringe I love. That bleeding edge the encircles our industry. The bleeding edge is what I would like to capture. And hopefully not just the edge of tech, but the edge of art, of marketing, or our industry.

So a reformat is necessary.

There’s always new ways of solving problems as technology evolves. It might be mobile, it might be a new startup, technology, or piece of hardware, it might be a new philosophy, but whatever it might be there’s a discussion there. And it’s these discussions that are important.

So MOBile mentality will go the way of the minidisk, and will reboot as a post called “What’s Next” whenever there are ideas to share. Did you think I was going to say UMD?
