The continuous evolution of Mobile *.*
Let me first clarify the title:
The continuous evolution of Mobile Everything:
We have heard this several times in the past "The Year of Mobile", but there are several writers mentioning, that 2012 is the year. This is the year of Mobile. I don't think it that way. Here's a reason.
One could put a particular year to TV, Social, Gaming etc; but I don't think anyone can (and should) do it for Mobile. All the other things like Laptops (or desktop), Social have some limitations of audience, geography, ability to solve a problem, purpose, availability etc;
But if you see Mobile, it's second YOU! It's not a fancy item to carry around anymore. Very much a necessity these days. Like internet. Carries everything (virtually ofcourse), connects everyone (sometime it's a pain), tried to solve everything (atleast claims)
What we are seeing in the Mobile space is just tip .. errr .. wait a min, again don't want to compare with iceberg. Well, this evolution is never ending, I guess that is the reason it's called evolution. New things in hardware, apps, payments, social, local, internet, interaction, education, commerce will keep the "MOBILE SPACE BUSY". It's never gonna end, but we will see transformations all around us. Hopefully for good.
So don't even put a year on Mobile, please! May be a century might work.
