TIps for anyone - not just SMBs interested in Mobile Apps

"So, you’re a small or medium-sized business, and you want to build a Facebook, mobile or web app. You’re undertaking something that’s both simple and ambitious, and you’re probably looking for a bit of help.

But do you use one of the many do-it-yourself tools online, or do you call in a professional? If you find you need a developer to work with you, do you reach out to a freelancer or do you call an agency? And when — if ever — do you need to hire your own full- or part-time, in-house dev to work on your website and applications?"

"Mobenzi leverages the mobile form technologies developed for Mobile Researcher and therefore supports fairly complex tasks, intermittent network connectivity and embedded logic. Although not as widely supported as SMS, over 300 different models of mobile phones currently support the application – with more planned. Mobenzi agents – people who sign up to download the Mobenzi application – receive and complete tasks via their mobile phones.

The software communicates via the mobile internet which allows instructive text and other content to be downloaded at a fraction of the cost of an sms.

The following factors affect the selection of appropriate tasks for Mobenzi agents.

* Tasks should take only a few minutes to complete.
* Some phones might have very small screens making large bodies of text difficult to read.
* Embedded images and audio are not yet supported but will be in coming months.
* Mobenzi agents will not undergo detailed training for specific tasks.
* Agents will perform tasks wherever they choose – at home or on public transport.
* Completing a task should be very simple for someone with limited education.
* A task may be made up of a series of instructions and questions.
* A variety of question types are supported, including single option lists, multi option lists, dates, text etc."

Disruptive innovation in the communications world - we've reached a tipping point...

"Preliminary results from the July-December 2008 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) indicate that the number of American homes with only wireless telephones continues to grow. More than one of every five American homes (20.2%) had only wireless telephones (also known as cellular telephones, cell phones, or mobile phones) during the second half of 2008, an increase of 2.7 percentage points since the first half of 2008. This is the largest 6-month increase observed since NHIS began collecting data on wireless-only households in 2003. In addition, one of every seven American homes (14.5%) received all or almost all calls on wireless telephones, despite having a landline telephone in the home. This report presents the most up-to-date estimates available from the federal government concerning the size and characteristics of these populations."

From Justin R. Levy - Amazon Remembers What You Want to Buy...

Like I need even more in my wish list (>500 items - it's my placeholder bucket for renting, borrowing, buying just about everything except transportation and housing). This is the sort of functionality I've wanted for years. See something you want to remember to look into more deeply (and check for Amazon discounts) while walking around town, while on the road, etc., and pop the info (as painlessly as possible) into your mobile device, et voila!

We're finally getting somewhere useful with the mobile world!
