Off to Vienna
Over the next few days I'll be in Vienna for a few meetings and have the chance to catch some of the mobile content conference hosted by Comverse. The conference is focused on mobile advertising and ring back tones.
Our friend Chetan Sharma will be delivering the keynote on Mobile Advertising so I'm looking forward to seeing his presentation. Chetan is widely respected as an author, thought leader and consultant and it's always good to have the opportunity to discuss multi channel mobile strategies with him.
I'll update from the conference. Should any of you be attending and wish to meet there, please send me an email.
