Is the Mobile Web Dead?

tom Tom, 16th April 2008

This might seem a strange thing to ask considering my previous 2 blog entries, but it's a view shared by a couple of long standing mobile web entrepreneurs, and highlighted in an article I've just read. Personally I think this is a prime example of link baiting! By stating something controversial to stimulate debate and get your site noticed :) (It worked!) I don't believe it for a minute. It also sounds a little like the kind of dot.com crash talk; you can't make money just from advertising... But that all turned out ok. It makes for an interesting read though, I wonder what the future holds for the mobile web...
