Mobile End-user " The Radical Meme" authored by leveious rolando

An evolving historic technological revolution is under way, which is creating new industries, new products, new services and, unmercifully redefining or even destroying others. It is more powerful, with greater reach and is growing faster than any other media-ecology.

It is the every day person to person the mobile mass media

In addition, mobile phones are among the most personal of devices, and UI designers now that appealing to subscribers’ emotional, as well as physical (utilitarian) needs, is a winning combination. ireless operators concerned about improving the mobile user experience will understand the sense of touch as a remendous and underused source of both physical and emotional attachment.

After all, people learn the language of touch from an early age, having absorbed its lexicon, grammar, and syntax even before verbal language.And though many of the leading handset manufacturers have started to leverage the sense of touch through tactile
feedback (haptics*), visual and auditory communication channels are still the most often used.

Like the what Alan Moore says 7 th mass media has emerge

It is not as clear and coherent, with established well known global brands, as the older Internet is today, with its Google’s, Yahoo’s, YouTube’s and Second Life’s. But the foundations are now being laid for the future corporate giants for the 7th mass media to emerge.

Differing from the internet, mobile as the 7th mass media channel is similar to the five legacy mass media, economically viable with a stable business model from day one. Yet, differing from the legacy mass media, all of which are witnessing a decline in their audiences and revenues, mobile like the internet, is an interactive media enabling it to fully capitalize on social networking and digital communities.

But more importantly from a media audience point-of-view, there already are over twice as many mobile phones worldwide as there are personal computers, nearly twice as many mobiles as TV sets. The only mass media that is carried upon the owner at all times, mobile is also the first mass media where near 100% accuracy is feasible on measuring the audience.
