Shirky: phone as platform

“As the power and flexibility of the mobile phone platform grows, developers have the opportunity to create new, creative applications which take advantage of the mobile phone’s unique features. Applications can combine GPS, voice, and the use of in-built cameras to add a new dimension to gaming and social networking software, among others.”

“Writer and consultant Clay Shirky discusses his experience of teaching at NYU’s graduate Interactive Telecommunications Program over the past three years, and the lessons he’s learned from a number of his student’s own projects.”

This is a 20 minute audio segment from IT Conversations.
