November MoMo – Part 3
Posted on: October 29, 2009 – Filed under: Sydney
So it’s going to be a huge Mobile Monday Sydney on November 2nd:
1. Opening with Michael Harries talking about the future of mobile
2. Danny & Nick from Insqribe talking about their QR Code/AR marketing solution
3. Last, but not least: Rob from MOB talking about:
Imagine looking around and seeing rich images, videos and
information overlaid upon each of the items you see.
This is no longer a sci-fi promise – it is available on your iPhone and
other modern mobile phones right now. This presentation looks at where
this technology is today, the tools MOB have used and developed…and
where it’s headed in the near future.
We will look at the implications for developers, business, Government
and the Galleries, Libraries, Archives & Museums (GLAM) industry.
We will explore how this changes the concept of Public and not so Public
Spaces and how you relate to your customers/users.
