The World in 2010

A great film from Faris Yakob on the world in 2010, explaining how with mobile technology evolving so rapidly, the internet will soon infiltrate every aspect of how we communicate in the real and virtual worlds and how soon there will be no difference between online and offline.

It explores how content will become so vast that people will no longer search, but will rely on recommendations from others within their niche groups..suggesting how brands might react to ensure they get noticed.

“iPhone killer”

..the laziest headline of 2008?

Once more we have an exciting round of new mobile products that have taken the years of sweat and tears to develop and still the best that journalist can come up with is ‘brand x announces iphone killer’

By my reckoning there are at least 5 current handsets in the frame for the forthcoming murder of the iphone, after the last round of assassination attempts failed…the 3 prime suspects being:

NOKIA 5800


















SAMSUNG OMNIA




















..AND OF COURSE THE GOOGLE PHONE

The reality is that there will be no death, fatal wounding or hospitalisation of the iphone, just an incredible choice for us punters as to how our mobile media devices will look and feel. The only death, hopefully, will be that of a very tired headline.
