Mobile Games at Mobile Monday London

Mobile Games

Having worked in videogames and mobile, I could not miss the first London Mobile Monday of 2012. “Mobile Games” was the hot topic of the night, discussed by a great panel of professionals and chaired by Oscar Clark of Papaya Mobile. Not that one would want to miss any of these industry gatherings, but, for me, it was also the first time on the volunteer side. In fact, they even gave me the chance to blog about the event, so here I am.

While on the tube to go to the event, I was thinking about the topic. I personally feel that video games and mobile industry are converging towards something different, and mobile games development is driving the innovation. The new mobile and tablet platform allowed games to change, thanks mainly to three new features: touchscreens, connectivity and portability. All the portable game consoles we used before the rise of the app stores lacked at least one of the three, not to speak about the powerful graphic of the new mobile screens. We now have...

The 5 slides of convergence

I was asked lately to talk about fixed/mobile internet convergence as part of the July Momo Munich focusing on "One internet – convergence of the mobile and fixed interwebs" ...

Obviously a topic quite far from my usual appstore comparison pitches and other developer advocacy... but it stroke a chord. Maybe because the first marketing words I heard at engineering school were "fixed / mobile convergence is going to revolutionize the world"  ...

Anyway I used the occasion to rant "slightly" about how every time someone tries to sell a new convergence of some form they always use the same 5 slides: Wake Up, Go to Work, Have a meeting, socialize, Relax... And at each stage explaining why their version of convergence would change your life...  Concluding with a call to convergence marketers to think a bit more about their messaging and value prop, and give us something a bit different.
