“And so it begins”
“Mobile, Domains & The Future” book press release
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New book explains all there is to know about the future of the mobile world and domain names.
Why are our mobile phones so important to us? How will we access information in the Future? What is domaining? Why are domain names so valuable? Can an average person make money through the mobile web? These are some of the many questions answered in “Mobile, Domains & The Future”, the first book by independent Trendirama.com founder & consultant Javier Marti.
Bristol, UK – 3/6/08 – A digital version of the book “Mobile, Domains & The Future” from Javier Marti, is now available for free download through Trendinews.com.
Whereas in the past books about the mobile environment have been exclusively focused either on the technical or on the sociological impact of the mobile web, resulting in a poor learning experience for the average person or web professional.
“Mobile, Domains & The Future” integrates figures, statistics, advice and information on the world of domain names, future trends in the mobile arena, and the implementation of the domain extension dotMobi or .mobi. The book also includes domainers’ personal stories, the debates on which mobile domain extension “is better”, the logic behind domaining, potential threats along the way of mobile development, and much more.
The jargon-free “Mobile, Domains & The Future” provides readers with multiple sources of inspiration while drawing their attention to new sources of revenue and potential business contacts. The book also contains articles from guest authors, comments from celebrity domainers and the dotMobi registrar, and a section where the reader meets domainers hearing about their personal stories in their own words.

Media changing landscape is not the result of a fad
Gin, Television, and Social Surplus - Here Comes Everybody
Here’s something four-year-olds know: A screen that ships without a mouse ships broken. Here’s something four-year-olds know: Media that’s targeted at you but doesn’t include you may not be worth sitting still for. Those are things that make me believe that this is a one-way change. Because four year olds, the people who are soaking most deeply in the current environment, who won’t have to go through the trauma that I have to go through of trying to unlearn a childhood spent watching Gilligan’s Island, they just assume that media includes consuming, producing and sharing.

Mobile Marketing Best Practices
Already, radio stations have started “text clubs” that allow listeners to receive mobile alerts and promotions, and use text to interact with disc jockeys during broadcasts. Verizon Wireless’ VCast’s SongID service in the U.S. allows radio listeners to acoustically identify songs via their cell phones - allowing users to download the song or ringtone later.

Virtual worlds, attitude changes and persuasion power
Very interesting discoveries in the fields of psychology and persuasion:
ELECTABLE LIKE ME: The power of
digital imaging raises the specter of manipulation. When photos of
undecided voters were partially morphed into those of candidates, the
voters would prefer a candidate with whom they’d been melded, but could
not detect that the photo contained their own face.:
STANFORD Magazine: January/February 2008 > Features > Virtual Reality
Courtesy Virtual Human Interaction LabThis form of pretending is so powerful that what happens online doesn’t necessarily stay online, Bailenson argues. Experiments in his lab have shown that what you experience as your digital doppelgänger lingers after you power down the PC—and bleeds into your real-life identity, at least for a while. His Stanford research team has begun exploring how those virtual experiences might be used to tweak who you are, for better or worse.
Bailenson’s lab has found, you can make your avatar seem to gaze at
multiple people; they’ll pay more attention than they would in a
face-to-face conversation, and be twice as likely to agree with you.Yee describes an experiment in which people who were given taller
avatars behaved more aggressively in a virtual bargaining task than
people with shorter avatars. When the subjects later repeated the task
with a real person, “people who had been in taller avatars continued to
bargain more aggressively face-to-face.â€
- seeing Future Me made Present Me worry about retirement for weeks afterward. Ersner-Hershfield imagines that if bonding with your futurized image
encourages saving, retirement planners or banks might be able to use a
less-intrusive application—say, by virtually aging a photo that clients
upload to a website—to spur Americans’ moribund saving habits.- subjects who watch their own avatar run on a treadmill are more active
the next day than subjects who see a stranger’s avatar run, or who see
themselves stand still.- Ahn: because people tend to take what they see online at face value,
can their behavior be shaped by deliberately false information? Ahn’s
developing a test in which subjects’ faces are Photoshopped directly
into ads, or partially morphed with the faces of other endorsers.The implications of this kind of work are mind-boggling and a little
creepy: is this online game of let’s pretend ultimately empowering,
because we can be anything we want, or potentially sinister, because we
can be so easily manipulated by unseen hands?
