Hope I have not lost you with the acronyms, the translation- Tim Berners-Lee gave in my mind quite an important speech at the 3GSM mobile conference last week.
He argues that for the innovation needed to really develop the Mobile Web to take place the industry must adopt open standards and turn away from the walled garden approach taken so far. You can’t argue with that !
There also needs to be a different approach to charging for bandwidth, I’m just about to change my mobile operator from vodafone (£7.50 per megabyte!) to three or t-mobile who offer better value data packages.. it’s not about talk minutes any more!
