Social Media on the Move

It has been widely report that by 2013 the majority of content on the internet will be consumed on mobile devices.  Since we first covered this topic in February 2010 we have seen the introduction of the iPad and more recently the iPad2; the iPad introduction was the start of the latest access device - the tablet.  In this presentation Iain Murray will review the current status of hand held mobile devices and explore the type tools that are ideal to participate on social media platforms on the move.

He will also take a look at some of the popular, new and emerging apps and platforms that enable you to distribute and access information on the move.

As the popularity of mobile devices grows, it is essential to ensure your content is accessible to your target market; this breakfast presentation will identify what you can do to engage with your audience on the platforms they choose.
