As the Pogues once sang, its Christmas eve, babe. And here at Mobile Marketing Towers, were starting to pack up for the holidays.
That means there wont be any more news posts until the New Year, but fear not – weve got plenty of other content for you in the coming week.
Having spent the past week looking back at the past 12 months, its time to look forward, so well be running Guest Columns with a host of mobile experts predictions for 2014.
Well be kicking off this afternoon with a piece from AppNexus Graham Wylie on the rise of RTB this year, and its importance in the next. Then after a short break for Christmas, well be running two columns each day from Friday until Monday, from Juniper, Carat, TrendWatching and many more.
Finally, on New Years Eve, well be taking an in-depth look over the events of 2013, with the help of respected industry analyst Chetan Sharma. 
And if thats not enough, why not dig into the best of the last few weeks? You can read our picks for the biggest trend, acquisition and story of the year, or check out our roundup of where all of the major social networks stand at the end of 2013. Or take a dive into how mobile was integrated into the X Factor semi-final… or just sit back and watch our video report from a pub in Kings Cross, where David Murphy tested out the Orderella app.
Well be back on Thursday 2 January with all the latest news from the industry, plus more features, interviews and analysis. Until then, thanks for reading, have a merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
