FUTURE OF WIRELESS INTERNET: LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION
Author and venture capitalist David S. Bennahum says in Wired magazine that
wireless services have been a disappointment so far because "it turns out
that having the Web in your pocket is not all that useful." Then what would
make wireless services really useful? Benahuman's answer is location,
location, location. He writes: "The ability to pinpoint location will likely
generate the sort of demand for wireless services we haven't yet seen,
providing many with an 'aha' moment for mobile commerce and media. It could
happen the first time your wireless phone gives you directions to where you
want to go, simply and successfully. Or it could occur one quiet afternoon,
when your phone alerts you that a friend is nearby, allowing you to
rendezvous spontaneously for coffee... Sometime in the next few years we
will find ourselves surrounded by a pervasive, always-on network. It will be
more advanced in some areas, less so in others. The world is moving toward
hyper-connectivity. Mobility and physical space will be the new drivers of
innovation. And location awareness is the ingredient that will bind the
physical world to the virtual." (Wired Nov 2001)
