4. A Location-Based Service (LBS) is an information
or entertainment service, accessible with mobile
devices through the mobile network and utilizing the
ability to make use of the geographical position of
the mobile device.

7. 1. MOBILE ≠ PHONES
“Gartner says smartphone sales grew more
Phones are the conduit than 50% [in Q12010], accounting for 19%
of worldwide device sales compared to the
second quarter of 2009”
Electronics Weekly, 2010 “Within 5 years the number of users
To the internet accessing the Net from mobile devices
will surpass the number who access it
from PCs”
Morgan Stanley, 2010
To content
“High-speed broadband Internet access, now in 63.5% of homes, has created a
better user experience for watching online videos and nearly a quarter of
households have smartphones, enabling consumers to “place shift” and watch
video wherever they are.... While mobile online video viewing is still fairly
limited, year over year growth is notable at 51.2%”
Nielsen, 2010
“By 2013, video will occupy an
estimated 66% of mobile traffic”
Cisco, 2010
They’re expensive phones,
but cheap computers

24. A FEW GUIDELINES
Design for utility - offering people something they really want
or need (or will).
Design for responsiveness - knowing there is no one standard
OS or device.
Design for where people are - connecting your experience to
the nearby and tangible, but also knowing where the signal is.
Design for sharing - but understand not everything is public.
30. CONNECT PEOPLE WITH OBJECTS
NFC - near field communication -
could soon influence how we engage
with credit or debit card payments,
travel, check-ins, medical alerts, and so
on.
Ultimately, NFC (through RFID tags)
delivers on the notion of an “internet
of things” by tagging objects you can
connect to via a mobile device.

31. FOSTER PLAY
“Augmented reality when
applied to the body is this
amazing place where the
aesthetics and evolution
intersect, and the authors
of this new soft biology are
a handful of engineers and
computer programmers as
flawed as the users
controlled by their
interfaces.”
