Yesterday I went to a Conference Use8 very very interesting. I don't know if i liked a lot because I'm working with mobile phones and cultural heritage or It's the day! Actually the first talk (Ken Thompson CEO / Swarmteams.com"Turning Audiences into Communities") remembered me about my Design course and how nature can serve as an example for developing products and as He pointed out networks - Swarmteams.
Uau!! In this wave of Cognitive Intelligence I though of Semiotics and how everything is connected by signs and representations. The second talk was given by James Temple. He showed a lot of examples of brand and social media, including Nokia - Diaries, Nokiavine, Obama mobile. I was very excited thinking about my work and taking notes for my literature review. When I though OK the night was great I got enough information the last speaker Jamie Coomber turns up! With lots of ideas, examples and references. I was so inspired that I arrived home and started an account on Twitter! I loved it! Actually I had a little prejudice about it. People knowing about what you do should be dangerous and uncomfortable. Contrary, I found some researchers, writers that I love, and also friends that are in Brazil in that great weather saying and sending pictures of our beaches and paradises. I also started following BBC Click, every week I watch it and now I have the news in my hand, literally. I was so excited that add twitter in my skypephone, so I can blog and receive posts anytime. I'm not sure if it's is the beginner's enthusiasm...
In the final panel the future of Location-aware systems was highlighted by Simon Davis:
- Social mapping
- Some privacy problems
games - mobblog
- better mobile devices
Well and now I'm back to my Literature Review about Tourism.
