Welcome In the Beginning

Hello to the world,

I would like to introduce myself, my name is Jeff Brandt I am a technologist and entrepreneur. I have a degree in Computer Science from the Univ of OK and I have been working with leading edge technology for many years. The consistence theme to my career is phones, first terrestrial then mobile.

I started this blog to bring together ideas and thoughts of Web 2.0 communication and uses for mobile devices for the 21 century. One of the most interesting fact that I have noticed is that USA is far behind the rest of the world in Mobile and Web 2.0 use. 70% of all facebook users are from outside of the USA. While working in Asia developing Mobile software for an Indonesian company I observed that everyone in Singapore had cellular phone. You could not even get a cab without a phone, this was 1996. Most people outside of the USA do not have laptops or desktop computers but they do have cellphones. It is becoming the norm in the US that younger people do not have landlines but they have cellphones. So, what does this mean? THE market is huge and oportunities are endless. The tiny screens are here to stay and the growth potential is great.

So join in on my discussions of moblile phone, Web 2.0 and the futureshock of the industry.
