Mobile+Media


 * Mobile Media**

We could combine Mobile Media with Web 3.0, or we could drop both. We haven't done much with either, but I do think Web 3.0 will become clearer as mobile devices, and the apps designed for mobile devices like the augmented reality app Layar, become more prevalent.

Mobile media involves the use of social media networks on a cell phone (generally, a smartphone). This is usually done through the use of apps. For example, you could have an app for Twitter, Facebook, and Google+, just to name a few. There are many different apps that can be downloaded for social networking. The use of these apps saves a lot of time because instead of having to go to your computer and sign in to each separate social networking site several times a day, you can just open the app and instantly see all of your updates and even create a few of your own. Mobile media allows people to be able to keep up with all of their social networking sites.

Mobile media is great for people who are constantly on the go because it goes anywhere your phone does. You can check the status updates of your friends and/or followers at any time and even update your own status for others to see - all from your cell phone. Any time you have a spare moment, you can pick up your phone and check all of your social networking sites via the apps on your phone. You can do this anywhere you are - waiting in line at the grocery store, on your lunch break - anywhere. That is one of the main advantages of mobile media. It is completely portable and convenient.

Mobile media is not just limited to social networking apps. It can also include texting. Texting can be considered a form of mobile media because it is mobile. You can send a message to someone from anywhere that you are as long as you have a cell phone. Texting does not include the limitations of an Internet connection, whereas social networking apps do require a connection to the Internet in order for them to work. Texting can be considered a form of mobile media also because it is a form of media. Texting involves the sending and receiving of a written (in this case, typed message).
