MM: What’s with the ‘G’ ? CW: “The G in our name relates to the intelligent mobile products we offer for the new Generation of mobile technologies, i.e. 2.5G, 3G and of course Telstra’s ‘Next G’.”

Brian K. Johnson, mBlox Senior Vice President, Americas and Asia Pacific has flown in specially to give us for an in-depth review of mobile business in one of the world’s most dynamic mobile markets.
Brian: “Recent operator changes in the US have greatly expanded business opportunities for Content Providers.

In our second event for 2008, Mobile Monday Sydney is mixing things up a bit with a fun and fabulous night of mobile video. Its been a while since we took a look at this area and we’re keen to see what’s been cooking in this era of near-ubiquitous 3G networks and a strong audience participation culture…
First up, check out the H.264-based Xenon Streaming Platform as demonstrated by Shaun Dobbin, Product Manager Mobile Content at TeleResources:
“With ever faster networks, new generations of mobile phones, and intense competitive pressure, delivering high quality video has become a critical offering for mobile operators.PCCW’s award winning MOOV on mobile music service gives consumers the ability to subscribe to a music library of more than 100,000 songs. The MOOV service is powered by Vidiator and our demo will show the high quality of video provided by the latest generation of codecs along with the ease with which text and image editing can be accomplished ‘on the fly’.”
Next, let’s tackle 3G-to-TV! Frank Lodewick, Sales and Marketing Manager at Gravity will present their Interactive Video solution, at the core of the 3G-to-TV program “Vidcast” launched by Optus/MTV.
“Gravity has positioned itself as a developer of cutting edge technologies for user interaction across mobile, internet and broadcast media. The launch of 3G-to-TV clearly demonstrates what that means: you now can use your mobile to be seen on TV! This is the start of a very exciting year. I am sure you will agree when you see the kind of concepts we can now introduce into Australia.“
Also welcoming YCOAM
Angus Beattie from the “You Can On A Mobile” campaign will also be dropping by to give us an update on progress, activities and first results.
Bring your mobiles and business cards.

“Web 2.0 goes mobile” with event sponsorship and 2 free drinks per person (thanks guys!) by
Mobile Monday Sydney is proud to announce our first event for 2008!
With Web 2.0, the era of participation has spawned a whole new generation of web-based communities and hosted services - from social-networking sites with embedded widgets and social applications to wikis and folksonomies - a set of meshing behaviours and technologies bringing a whole new meaning to the idea of people facilitating, collaborating and sharing.
Mobile services are also evolving in line with web 2.0 - and Forum Nokia wants to share their ideas with us about how the latest mobile applications and services are allowing users to connect and share on a whole new level. From advertising and infotainment, to gaming and user-generated multimedia content, come and “explore how the future of the mobile is set to change with this shift in user behaviour in 2008″.
