Wireless Needs A Killer App
from the don't-we-all? dept
A new report suggests that for wireless adoption to really take off there needs to be a new killer app for wireless as opposed to just trying to take the same old internet and putting it on a phone. People have said this before, and I think some element of that is true. Of course, chances are this "killer app" will be some sort of accident (like most killer apps are) rather than some well funded attempt to find a killer app.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
