Month: April 2014

Hearty Congrats to all involved with Bringing the Community Together in Yangon, as we announced at MWC in Barcelona! Quick shout-out to Andy Zain, founder at MoMo Jakarta, and props to good folks at Ooredoo for their generous support, looking forward see #MobileMonday tweets from the debut event tonight! Mo’Action in Ahmedabad with Agile Mobile, Belgrade running Mobile Payments, Brussels has Mobile Shopping and Budapest does an Evening at Vodafone. Cluj plays host to Cristian Messel, Nazareth with Startups theme, New York has Qualcomm developers event and Silicon Valley digs into Productivity Apps. See ya here again next week.. Remember: Smile.. It’s Monday 😎

Yaa.. Sorry we missed update last week, with gigs running in Detroit, Johannesburg, Ljubljana and Vienna, it’s been jumping (hah) with our latest lunar base-station project, along with refit for the new site design here. A quick round-up of events on tap around the Mo’World for April 21st: Chicago has Startup Pitches, while Miami team gathers for a Spring Mixer as Shanghai digs into Mobile Commerce and Taipei explores The Future Agency. Upcoming for week of April 28th we see: Brussels dedicated to Mobile Shopping, New York, runs a Qualcomm Workshop and Silicon Valley will be laser-focused on Productivity Apps. That’s a wrap – have a good one – and remember to Smile.. It’s Monday 😎

Hah.. thanks for all the love/hate mail on our cheeky update here last week – to be clear: Yes, of course, the sold to MFST ‘news’ was only an April Fools stunt! Looking at the round-up below; we have a bakers dozen (Lucky 13!) events running around the Mo’World today with Wearable theme focus in both Calgary and Hamburg. Also thought should mention the long overdue design update for momo.net is bubbling on the back-end; while this site was well-ahead of the curve when we launched the current version, soon 4yrs ago, it’s about time to do some spring cleaning. Meanwhile.. Smile.. It’s Monday.. 😎

Pardon the lag.. but we had hold-back our usual weekly Monday update for an extra day considering some of the important ‘news’ to share here. For starters, if you have not already heard, Yes: the Mobile Monday global community has been acquired by Microsoft – terms not revealed, but somewhat less than WhatsApp – and we are thrilled to welcome 29 new chapter locations to the family! It’s been a pleasure to serve = my work here is done.. the Easter Egg Hunt post is a personal all-time Fav. from about this time last year! Jetting back to reality, Smile.. it’s April 1st; wanted to send Big Ups to team in SFO on their recent promo video – they are def. cranking on all cylinders in Silicon Valley. Meanwhile, the round-up of MoMo global events ontap after the jump.. you better be smiling.. 😎

Cheers to everyone for cards and flowers received here last week as TMR turned a ripe 75 issues old, time flies when you’re slamming keys, we’ll be 100 before you know it.. Yikes! While it would be easy to get all misty – thanking the academy and uncle Linus – we’d rather keep cranking out cheeky bytes. Of course it would have been a total blast to get our geek-on with the youth gathered in Baku today, apparently someone has to hold-down the fort, we look forward to spend some quality time soon in the Valley of Dreams instead.. 😎
