Convergence is certainly upon us in terms of how we view, share, pay for, access to view and download media and its associated contents. Very dynamic, uncertain yet exhilarating!<br /><br />NelsonNelson Weehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04477259654942964828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2384863181936210990.post-92135783573866696182010-02-18T13:58:38.107+08:002010-02-18T13:58:38.107+08:001.

Social sharing in itself seems to be following two paths - simplistic/textual Twitter like experience and richer Facebook-style multimedia sharing and social gaming. Mobile social networks, such as the recently announced Facebook Zero, should further make this distinction.<br /><br />2.There several business models - subscription, installments, hybrid (ads and payment), virtual currencies.

I also conducted my own research with universities here and they want to see mobile ads as long as they are non-intrusive and very targeted.MobileYogihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03842477033732601345noreply@blogger.com
