I am pleased to advise that I have been invited to participate on a panel discussion at the Mobile Internet Portal Strategies conference in London on 20 - 21 May.
The topic of the discussion is as follows:
INTERACTIVE ROUND TABLE: Creating Usable Content for the Mobile Web and its Portals: Understanding Mobile-Optimised Sites, Content Translation and Adaptation... and How these Technologies Affect Your Strategy
- Realities of working within the complex mobile web environment - browser/portal variation, divided interests, nascent standards
- Understanding the challenges posed by content translation and rendering:
- White-listing
- user agent changes, - communication between operators and developers
- Best practice for mobile optimised sites
- HTML and xHTML in the mobile sphere - roadmaps, current realities, and what this means to your strategy
The conference agenda looks fantastic and they have secured a great selection of speakers, especially from the operator community.
I am particularly pleased that this particular topic is on the agenda as it emerging as a bit of a David vs Goliath battle between some of the big operators (Vodafone UK, Sprint Nextel) and the broader mobile content development community.
If you want to know the full story, check out the campaign that Luca Pisani is running over at WURFL. Better still, understand the issues and sign up to the manifesto!
Drop me a note if you are attending this conference as I am always keen to meet and discuss.
