Big Bell Dogma: February 2010
As we work to build mobility into every product, service, and process, our greatest inhibitor is the mindset represented by those who defend the tethering of products and processes to specific places. This mindset is fueled by the investments that have been made that establish power in the companies, departments, and individuals that stand in the way of mobilizing our lives and our businesses. These investments are not always in hard assets, but often are investments of time and experience to establish intellectual and relational assets. We should expect our assault on these ways to be defended to the death. Here are recent examples:
- Apple Blocks Google App From iPhone While Trying To Patent The Same Invention?
- Why carriers didn’t want to allow 3G VoIP before. And why they’re now setting it free
- Jordan Increases Taxes on Mobile Phone Networks
- Will Control Freak Apple Let Another iPhone Browser Into The App Store?
- The real winners in the game of political donations
- University Of Texas Claims Trademark Over ‘Texas’; Wants Useful iPhone App Blocked
- Incumbents Blocking Broadband Stimulus Efforts Because They Don’t Like Competition
- Should mobile phones be subject to warrantless police search?
