Carnival of the Mobilists #65 at Golden Swamp

Monday, March 19th, 2007

Judy Breck has posted this week’s Carnival on her very interesting site, Golden Swamp, whose theme is mobile learning. Be sure to poke around the site and read some of Judy’s pieces to learn how our society is wasting the tremendous education potential of the web including the mobile web. This is a great Carnival too. There are thought provoking pieces about Mobile Net Neutrality, Nokia’s new advertising platform, brightly colored Japanese handsets, the way mobile phones foster economic development in India and education in the US, web standards, the Nokia N800, WiMAX, the iPhone and a whole lot more. Visit the Carnival, it’s educational and amusing.

Carnival of the Mobilists 64

Monday, March 12th, 2007

The latest edition of the mobile sideshow called the Carnival of the Mobilists is up at m-trends.org, hosted by Rudy De Waele. This week the Carnival is honoring Jean Baudrillard, the great media theorist who died recently. I think Baudrillard, whose work explored the nature of reality, would have enjoyed the postsĀ  on the artificial reality of web communities from both Michael Mace and Graham Brown. Also notable are some new mobile data statistics from Farooq Anjum. There are loads of design and development related items too, if that’s your bent. Really, whatever your area of interest in the mobile sphere, you will find something amusing in this week’s Carnival.
