“Yes, I was at that fire, it was lacking wood...”
with mobile phones each one of us has a fire, and we take it everywhere

First web equates to first wave of SN:
News groups, Message boards...people gathered around specific topics.
just like gathering around fires, or going to the pub...
History of the web... mention Cluentrain...

Oh Shit, we’re connected. Let’s go crazy!!!!!!!!!!!! But let’s do it sitting down...

“Hey, somebody connected all these people and now they are going crazy. What can we do?”
“Well, we can start by telling them they are connected.”
First consolidated SNs

Adrian joins Friendster and Orkut and Hi5 and makes two new real friends...

You are reminded that you can make Friends through your Friends. Ads become more selective.
2nd wave:
Introduction of tools and intelligence to make the ‘connected experience more meaningful’
3rd wave:
media type and service cross-pollination, updates, tools
difference between romanic churches and gothic churches

Adrian is growing and consolidating his network.Some of his mySpace friends become part of is phone’s address book. migration is vital
Ibrahim meets people on the ‘street’ and they become part of his phone’s address book. migration is vital
![Page 13: Mobile Social Networks Presenation at Mobile Camp London 2007](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051609/545d07c1b0af9f952c8b4c59/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The real mobile SN is here:
For both Adrian and Ibrahim
It cannot be imagined. It’s real...
![Page 14: Mobile Social Networks Presenation at Mobile Camp London 2007](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051609/545d07c1b0af9f952c8b4c59/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Adrian gets lucky a few times (learns how to spot the single amongst his friends) and learns how to master his SN. He eventually discovers linkedIN and gets a job...

It’s only natural that Mobile Social Networks become a direct translation of existing online SNs. After all they’ve worked for Adrian, there’s a business logic in place...
...not good enough though.

Print: great to take along, but no sound...
Radio: great, and you can move about, and there are tribes... but no pictures.
TV: magic, but you have to consume it sitting down. It demands all your attention.
Networked Computer: you can talk and lose yourself in the web... but you must do it sitting down.
Cell-phone: you can talk and text everywhere and it wakes you up in the morning.

Do you want a phone you can take with you everywhere?No one asked me. Still here it is and it changed my world.
Do you want a computer you can take with you everywhere? How is it going to change my world?
The question no one asked:
The question now is:

I go outside
We can start to think like Adrian or like Ibrahim
Rely on web based social networks
Rely on bodies
The suckers want us to sit down...
which are inherently mobile
![Page 22: Mobile Social Networks Presenation at Mobile Camp London 2007](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051609/545d07c1b0af9f952c8b4c59/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
There is a great probability that Jessica had sex with John last night.
James just shared two pictures he took with his MC. He probably thinks he is a good photographer.
Annie is within physical reach of you. This your chance to mate.
I want my mobile to make sense of my data/world
position me
Killer app for Adrian:
crossing web and mobile data

Well, everything will start to be more emotional. Why?

Communication codes have to be standardized and messages simplified in a way to be compatible with conditions of movement and/or wide and variable spatial dispersion.
Whole collectivities move together, so that intragroup communication can be maintained [touch]
Communication used to be limited to the rather rare occasions when populations are densely aggregated at specific locations.

Digital living begins with physical living. This entails a shift in the roadmap... otherwise we will be porting MySpace and Facebook-like apps for phones...

Behaviour > Mobility and Stability

What is truly important and always present
We have routines that anchor our lives
We move between heterogeneous environments. Some of which are controlled by us, others not. [Habitat.]
Space of interaction is vast and unpredictable
![Page 52: Mobile Social Networks Presenation at Mobile Camp London 2007](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051609/545d07c1b0af9f952c8b4c59/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Ibrahim has a new routine
When out on the street we have a purpose and it’s very difficult if not impossible to divert people from their purposes. Our lives are about routine behavior and to do lists are not very flexible. On the move we
have lines of flight to which we commit and from which we seldom move away from.
