With the market saying 'no' to Nokia's Ovi Store, what do you think can be done to change this?
Been following the US election? You heard about Oprah’s stump speech for Obama? It was a big draw and it got lots of media attention. My interest is mobile, however. The mobile medium is generally being entirely, entirely overlooked. It’s such a fantastic method of connecting with huge amounts of people quickly, directly and reasonably personally.
So it’s nice to hear that the Obama campaign has been deploying the medium thus:

The rally also showed Obama has a sophisticated organization. Harpootlian says 25,000 people sent text messages trying to get front-row seats. Now the Obama campaign has contact information for all those people
From what I can make out, if you wanted to get a ticket, you had to text. Nice.
(However having the mobile numbers of 25,000 people isn’t that useful if you don’t have permission to talk to them….)
