The Mobile Communities Unconference is a gathering of strategists, community hosts, device manufacturers, service providers, and content developers to discuss the emerging opportunities and challenges that mobile communities present.
Several factors are driving the importance and relevance of this topic, most notably the fact that the number of mobile handsets in use globally dwarfs the number of personal computers. This fact, combined with the increasing sophistication of mobile devices, increasing speed of data flowing on mobile networks, the increasingly robust web experiences available via mobiles, and the explosion in interest around social networking begs the questions: what impact will mobile have on pc-bound online community experiences? And what are the unique opportunities for mobile-only experiences that transcend voice?
As we have found with our past events, the best source of information on all of these topics is other knowledgeable practitioners.
The Mobile Community Unconference is inspired by the emerging "open space" conference format. (For an excellent description, see this CNN Money article on a recent Unconferences.)
The Sheraton Palo Alto is located just across the street from Stanford, and in the heart of Silicon Valley. There will plenty of parking and WiFi. Lunch and snacks will be provided, and there will also be plenty of time for networking during the breaks.
