Mobile Communities: everything you wanted to know but were afraid to ask
Facebook has reached its tipping point, Plaxo has an impressive new release, and dare we mention the virtual communities like Cyworld from Korea? Did you know that 90% of Korean youth and 30% of total population are active in Cyworld. And 90% of all picture uploads on the web in Korea go to blogs or photo sharing services within CyWorld.
Communities are hot. But what about Mobile Communities? That's what we will discuss on September 24th.
“ Momo van September was goed bezocht en dus interessant (want altijd wel nieuw iemand te vinden die prettige uitbreiding van het netwerk is). Speker van Mowaves viel erg tegen, Tomi Ahonen was amusant. Gratis hapjes waren luxe en heerlijk, jammer dat drankjes niet te sponsoren waren... ”
“ Presentations: eye flaps, wishfull thinking, enthusiasm with lack of realism. Ideas, concepts are not the issue. Usability, behaviour, operators. An glass hill to be taken. Comments on this issue during presentations: None! ”
“ First speaker had some interesting case studies but struggled to bring them across. If that is the case in future, do a moderated interview, instead of death by Powerpoint. His experiences in New Zealand were far more interesting than the profile of the company. The second speaker was inspiring. I think the break is a bad idea. Mix the format (an interview, a couple of 4 minute pitches with an Idol's style panel of respected people and a keynote). Don't try to do too much. The networking time is important - and I guess the venue wants its money from the drink sales. ”
“ Tomi Ahonen was very good
The backchannel again proved to be annoying and had no added value apart from cynical remarks and personal 1 on 1 jokes that have nothing to do with what the Momo was about.
please lose it the next momo. ”
“ first speaker was so, so, the last speaker was great. It would be nice if the speakers also took notice of the questions on the screen behind them, otherwise the screen only distracts the audience from listening to the speaker. So make this screen part of what happens on stage or leave the screen out. ”
“ Very interesting and good to have that much mobile professionals together. I would prefer a shorter break in the middle, so the networking can start earlier. Yesterday we saw a lot of people leave soon. ”
“ Quality of 90 sec sessions was nog very hight. Elevator pitches were pretty boring, no 'what's in it for me'. Maybe next time take a little more time and ask 2-3 persons to act as a panel, askins some difiicult questions to get the message clear? ”
“ Participation level of people attending could be improved. Within the group there is so much creativity, knowledge and vision, it should be (or facilitated to be) shared. ”
“ Giles was dull.
Ahonen was full of inspiration and energy. Bravo!
Screen was too small to read in the back of the venue.

“ Prachtige Locatie, goede sprekers, korte intro van Raimo was ook interesant vooral de 4 kwadranten blijft bij mij hangen!
Backchannel was niet altijd actueel en de anticipatie van de sprekers op het backchannel is minimaal, het idee is echter erg aansprekend!
Het netwerken en de spreker Tomi waren heerlijk!
Groetjes uit Twente ”
