Airwide Solutions, which specialises in next-generation mobile messaging infrastructure and applications, has revealed that it is to sponsor an independent industry blog on Mobile Messaging 2.0. Editorially produced and managed by Corante, which claims to be the worlds first blog media company, the blog focuses on mobile messaging and counts among its contributors some of the industrys keenest observers, commentators, and prognosticators. Also worth noting, says Airwide, is that the blog is a hosted discussion, an experiment by a growing number of companies to sponsor editorially independent conversations around the respective companys industry or category.
Contributors to the blog are top-tier intellectuals and achievers from the mobile-related blog space across Europe and North America, including Imran Ali, Nancy Broden, Ajit Jaokar, Debi Jones, Helen Keegan, Darla Mack, Ewan Spence, Chetan Sharma, Russell Shaw, Oliver Starr, Daniel Taylor, and Emily Turrettini. In the blog and related editorial offerings, the group will explore how the landscape of mobile messaging is evolving in the face of rapid technological change and innovation. Included in the topics and themes these to be explored are the future of mobile messaging; mobile messaging technologies, platforms and devices; innovation in SMS and MMS; emerging mobile messaging-based applications and more.
The mobile messaging market, like many others, is in a perpetual state of change, with phenomenal growth that has taken directions few could have predicted says Airwide CTO Vince Kadar. What started a few years ago as the emergence of ground-breaking market shifts is now coalescing into a new vision for using and enabling mobile messaging technology – Mobile Messaging 2.0.
The Airwide-sponsored blog has been appointed the official blog of Global Messaging Congress 2007, being held at the Grimaldi Forum in Monte Carlo, from 5 -6 June. The Mobile Messaging 2.0 blog will provide real-time analysis, podcasts and snapshots of the most important and buzzworthy developments at the show.
We know there are some very insightful and intelligent thought leaders in the industry, with a lot to say about mobile messaging 2.0, says Jay Seaton, Chief Marketing Officer at Airwide Solutions. By bringing together the best to discuss and debate the most important issues and strategies driving innovation and development on this topic, Airwide Solutions is helping to shape what we might all come to expect in the coming years. This blog has been created not only to share knowledge from the industrys leading experts, but to encourage readers to share their own thoughts and opinions through comments posted. Increasingly, modern communication is interactive and direct dialogue with our customer base is the key to future innovation and development of our products and services.
