I’m moderating the location stream at the Being-Digital conference in London on June 10th and I was wondering what readers of London Calling see as the hot issues in location.
Here are some initial thoughts - and I’d welcome any comments below
What value do consumers place on location?
Can location information be viewed as inventory?
Is there more value [...]
This year I was not able to attend Oxford University’s Forum Oxford Conference, but the next best thing - having my friend and fellow blogger Martin Sauter write up a comprehensive review over at wireless moves has allowed me to catch up with what transpired at the conference last week. I also had the opportunity [...]

Much has been written on the “Davos Effect”, where the musings at this annual event from senior executives of large companies such as Google and Sony actually become true, or at least offer a window into the current thinking or focus of a particular company or industry segment.

Recently I attended the Financial Times World Telecoms Conference in London. Upon registration, I picked up my delegate badge and was ushered towards an interesting machine that contained a camera and small LCD screen. My photograph was taken by the camera, and I was handed a “spotme” machine.
