Today I will give a presentation on the future of mobile at “De Haagse School“.
I will present for a group of Human Technology students.
I tried to look beyond the obvious role of context. I ended up in a world where media and life are delivering ONE integrated experience.
As you see chapter 3 is still not finished.. Atleast that is how it feels for me.. What should be added?
Its in Dutch, good, 10 minutes long and the first item in the program. After the click on the cue image you’ll be taken to the broadcast website (the dont do embeds…)
The item is about the fact that its not allowed to do VOIP over 3G. Skype and other apps display a message telling you that its not allowed when you try this. It is allowed over wifi. And it does work with a hacked phone.
SPRX thinks its logical that operators do this yet they inhibit the use of the phone which has so much more value which will be benifitial to the individual as well as the corporate entity. Its a short sighted rule. Its like the railroad company forbidding taking a bicyle on the train becuase its also a transport mode and might be used instead of the train.
In the program the helpdesk of all operators are called to ask them about VOIP over 3G. None of them knew what they were talking about.
Claire was asked to explain why operators should embrace open internet in all its aspect. And not close off voice calling over 3G via Skype. Dutch operators currently don’t allow Skype calls over 3G. Only over wifi. In the video Claire demonstrates Fring on iPhone as a workable alternative which can call over 3G (when your iPhone is jailbroken), also to Skype users. And is also free and available for iPhone.
This video is the Qik stream of the all the recording work. The edited item will be broadcast on Monday on Dutch TV. As soon as we have it we will post the final item.
It explains the difference between PC internet and mobile internet very well and helps you understand how contextual services will be beneficial for individuals and cooperation’s. Great to see others get on this “physical world interfacing” & “contextual services” bandwagon and explain it so well. We’re defining a whole new business category!
Love the design of the presentation too, you glide on through the 128 slides with ease, get the message and only slightly miss the voice over.
