Will the mobile web dominate the future of the internet?

Posted by John Lampard on Friday, 25 July, 2008 to the technology subset

Mobile experts offer their opinions. With data transfer rates of A$150, or more, for one Gigabyte per month in Australia, the mobile web won’t be playing too big a part in the future of the internet in this part of the world.

According to Barbara Ballard however, the “mobile web” is only a part of the internet’s future direction.

No. Ubiquity is the future, of which mobile is a component. Here, I’m defining “the web” as “ongoing access to remote data and logic via a variety of mechanisms”, not “using web browsers”.

Ubiquity?
