Mobile is eating the world.
– Benedict Evans
“What’s the mobile use case?”
implications & impact
Mobile is personal and intimate – never a shared device – with unique capabilities to leverage.
Internet is always with your audience – so information will be delivered instantly.
The expectation is that everything – websites, media files – is optimized for mobile.
Mobile apps are exploding in both downloads and share of time spent.
Design conventions from mobile are creeping into desktop web interface design.
TRENDS :

implications & impact
Focus on ways to listen to your audiences and identify influencers.
Anticipate and watch for technical and cultural changes in social platforms, and then develop and optimize accordingly.
Recognize news distribution possibilities, and refine content as needed.
Beyond “should we?” and official accounts, recognize that the third wave of participatory social media is here.

Show don’t tell wherever possible: create and curate visual content.
Watch the different specifications – a little optimization can go a long way.
Measure to see what resonates. Re-purpose existing visual assets for
new channels, e.g., event videos YouTube Instagram.
