Carnival of the Mobilists #189

This week’s Carnival is hosted by a site I consider required reading. If you are interested in anything mobile and certainly in the real life application of mobile strategy, the resources, the authors and people over at MSearchGroove are well worth your time. Part of my interest in MSearchGroove peaked when I began doing some work and research on mobile analytics… you will see a lot of work in that area on this site over the next few months.

But I digress.

Please head on over to MSearchGroove and read Peggy’s summary (links included) about what the Mobilists are writing this week. This week’s Carnival is aptly named: Best & Brightest: Carnival Of Mobilists #189; Can Nokia Cut It?; Positive Mobile Trends; Is Apple Behaving Badly? & How Mobile May Empower Women. Lots of interesting food for thought.

Here is Peggy’s introduction to our article on Mobile Banking that made this week’s Carnival:

Another round of important mobile stats comes from Jose Colucci at Mobile Strategy, who continues the countdown of the 12 Reasons Why Canadian Banks Should Really Offer Mobile Services. Jose expertly brings together figures that show significant growth and penetration (despite strict government regulation, a lack of competition and a sky-high mobile data plans and pricing). The bottom line: over 70 percent of Canadians have wireless access. Is Canada an untapped market for banking services? Is there a first-mover advantage for financial institutions that get involved? Read on, find out and tell us what you think.

Enjoy.
