2010-09-02 13:55:00 Opera recently released its monthly State of the Mobile Web report for July, offering up in-depth insight into all facets of mobile Web usage worldwide. There is a remarkable discrepancy in the male or female split when it comes to mobile data usage. Only four percent of Indian users are female, which is very low compared to the worldwide average of 23 percent.

Mobile Web For All – IBM and IIT Combine For Research
2010-08-05 07:48:00 For some time now, we have been talking about how mobile phones are going to be an influencing factor in India’s digital revolution. So much as, that 3G is set to penetrate rural India by 2012. All said and done, how will the rural folks harness 3G without the know-how of how to use the internet, or to begin with, not being able to afford a phone that will allow them to use internet services. Keeping this in mind, IBM has joined hands with IIT to develop new mobile device interfaces that will be easy-to-use and easily understandable to semi-literate or illiterate people. The Industrial Design Centre (IDC) at IIT, Mumbai will be the department responsible for developing a mobile interface keeping in mind the so-called backward areas in India. This is a great initiative and will hopefully conjure up a mobile interface that will be useful for anyone regardless of where he is in the country.

Mobile Web Traffic Grows 4 Times In 2 Years : AdMob Metrics Report
2010-06-30 16:40:00 Amidst the usual comparisons of operating systems and the constant analysis of the biggies in the handset segment (Nokia, Apple etc), a few other things in the AdMob Mobile Metric report caught my attention. This graph basically shows a regional share of the traffic and requests that the company receives. Firstly the notable fact stated in the report is that globally the traffic has increased by 4 times in just 2 years. And this multiplication factor seems to have reduced only because of Africa because otherwise the rest of the world has increased its mobile activity for the company by 6 times. Also notice that Oceania has seen the steepest growth in the time span. Why is that? Is it due to a new marketing strategy that was being pursued in the region or does this growth represent a new surge or true growth in mobile spending and engagement in the region? The other noticeable fact is revealed in this bar graph published in the report. The difference in the choice of the phone...

Android Surpasses iPhone Sales In US, Emerges As The Leader In Mobile Web
2010-05-12 12:46:00 Inevitable happened and Android finally surpassed the iPhone sales in US in the first quarter of 2010, the numbers show Android captured a 28% market share in smart phone sales and iPhone secured a 21% share while Blackberry still maintains it’s leadership in Smartphone sales with 36% market share. The reasons behind Android emerging as leader are: 1) iPhone OS is just limited to Apple and it’s just one manufacturer and one network 2) iPhone offers only one model at a time, currently it is iPhone 3G 3) Android , on the other hand is available to any manufacturer and on any network interested in the OS. 4) Android is available in different price points and several variants ( I bought an Android phone, just because it was available in Samsung i5700 at a cheap price of 12,000 Rs) Apart from Android’s sleek integration with the Google apps, apparently the same reasons drove Android to emerge as the Leader in the Mobile web in US, while the statistics from the Admob&...

Ci si aspettava forse che il Mobile Web fosse come navigare da un vero e proprio pc? Forse è ancora troppo presto. I passi avanti si sono visti rispetto alla vecchia navigazione Wap, che è stato un vero flop. Molti SmarthPhone come Iphone, HTC, ecc. hanno un’ottima navigazione grazie alla stabilità dei rispettivi web browser, ma non ancora convincono. C’è chi si aspetta troppo e ci sono gli immancabili pessimisti (vedi Russel Beattie), che abbandonano la nave prima ancora che sia affondata. Certo, ci si mette anche il fatto che gli smartphone hanno prezzi non accessibili a tutte le tasche, il che blocca il mercato della telefonia. Se si vuole espandere il raggio di...
