Beyond Mobile Platforms

Many months ago, I penned a piece here that for a long time was the most visited post that I’d written since moving to WordPress. Titled Becoming the Jetons, it was my attempt to log some of the signs that I’d been seeing in regards to mobile software, mobile platforms/operating systems, and how users might respond to a different paradigm of living with them. It seems that this topic is coming back around again, and this time brought on by the nice folks at Engadget and their question about paying for mobile platform updates.
