Our first print edition was very well received, and this is as good a place as any to say a big public thank you to everyone who has complimented us on it. The online edition has already had almost 900 views, in addition to the 5,000 copies distributed at Mobile World Congress and at other events since. With the new website also taking shape, theres a lot of good stuff going on right now.
Were just starting work on our next print edition, which will look at a number of themes that have emerged over the past couple of months, including network operators attempts to cope with the explosion in data usage among their Smartphone-owning subscribers, and the GSMAs Mobile Media Metrics initiative.
We are also planning a comprehensive guide to the dozens of mobile ad networks that have sprung up over the past couple of years, and as the Mobile Marketing Forum heads for New York, we throw the spotlight on the mobile marketing scene in the US. And were delighted to welcome mobile legend Tomi Ahonen on board as a Guest Contributor.
