Arguing Apple vs Android and apps vs web is fun, but so 2011. So, thinking about 2012, a handful of mobile trends are worth tracking:
- Transactions/Authentication (NFC , Square etc.)
- External sensors and connected devices (Bluetooth 4.0/Internet of Things)
- Voice (Siri vs Google)
- Presence (Moving beyond check-ins)
- Home Hub (Airplay, HDMI outputs, home controls)
- Connected cars (3G-enabled, streaming Internet replacing AM/FM etc.)
- 4G (Speed changes behavior)
I am collecting links on these and other mobile topics on Delicious.
