This week’s G20 special edition carnival of the mobilists is now live from London Calling! Be sure to take a look all the interesting posts from many different nations.
A bunch of us are going to be down in Las Vegas this week for a little event you might have heard of called WIPJAM (wink wink) so if you’re there, be sure to say hi!
Whoops! I took a step back into the past! This week’s carnival is actually from VisionMobile who has the heads up on the great debate of whether or not smartphones are really the future. Also, a nice piece on whether the Windows App Store is better than the Apple App store (The Mac vs. PC never ends, even on mobile!).
Guess who is up next week for Carnival? That’s right, its us. Stay tuned.
This week’s carnival comes from Ubiquitous Thoughts who gave us plenty to think about with some interesting topics on mobile content, marketing, and development. They chose a piece from Andrew Grill at London Calling for the post of the week. Check it out! Next week is Vision Mobile, so we’ll see you then.

After bidding adieu to #mwc09, we’re back to work for the CTIA (Vegas baby!) WIPJAM. This week’s mobilist comes from Golden Swamp, and they have provided some link love on our Mobile World Congress wrap up as well as some discussion on how much we actually like the touch screen revolution.
In completely unrelated news, WIPJAM has now upgraded along with the rest of the world to Wordpress 2.7.1! Yeah!
What a week! As we all do a little catching up on some mystical thing called sleep, Sachendra Yadav has put up some wrap up pictures and posts of Mobile World Congress in the Carnival this week. We should have our own MWC09 post some time later this week as well. Now, about that sleeping thing…
This week’s carnival came from Igor of Handi Mobility and he dropped a bombshell at interation with the introductino of Mobify.Me. Mobify.Me simplifies making your web friendly, and no, it’s not just for iPhones. WIPJAM is mobified as well! Check it out, along with many other goodies. Next week’s Carnival ought to be epic as well, as everybody returns from Barcelona. Stay tuned!
What do you know, its Monday again! This week’s carnival comes to you from All About iPhone and they definitely go beyond just the iPhone. The post of week includes new Japanese vocabulary and how mobile is bigger than TV. Next week a lot of us will be in Barcelona, but the carnival will go on with Igor from Mobify.me. See you all next week!
