Unified Communication Is Truly The Future Of Mobility

Author: Vishal Gurbaxani
Co-Founder and CEO, Mobclix
I believe we finally are in the year of mobile. We’ve been talking about mobile and envisioning the future of mobile devices for the past 10 years. It really took an innovative company such as Apple to help the eco-system catch up with this vision. With the iPhone, Apple’s game-changing device has helped break down the barriers that were created by the old carrier walled garden. Today, anyone can create an application and literally change the world with their mobile device.

The biggest trend around unified communication is accessibility. People always have their mobile device and with social networking services such as Facebook and Twitter, people are now empowered like never before. People are sharing their location, gaining points on services such as FourSquare, finding local deals, reporting news and crossing to the next level of real-time sharing. Right now, we are just at the tip of the iceberg as what’s possible for the ‘new’ always-on-mobile user.

The industry is redefining what we think of as mobile. With the iPad and various other devices that are mobile and always connected, we are finding new innovative uses of technology. For example, Samsung announced their App Store for televisions and there are even app stores being launched in vehicles. It’s a great time to be involved with mobile as it’s redefining our everyday lives.

I see the industry heading to a point where technology, location, intent and behavior are automatically collected and inferred. Mobile devices will act as the window into your day-to-day life and will connect you to all the devices in your environment.

The barriers to entry for starting a company have been dramatically reduced. Amazon Web Services allows anyone to scale businesses effortlessly. Social Media allows anyone to gain a user base and build a community around a product or idea. The start-up ecosystem has been created and it’s literally up to the entrepreneur to get started. They key challenges in this environment is to find the right market, the right team, the right funding strategy, the right focus and the right execution for one’s business plan. Don’t be scared to fail, just fail fast, so you can learn and become successful!

2: From: Mrs. Mary David

This mail may be a surprise to you because you did not give me the permission to do so and neither do you know me but before I tell you about myself I want you to please forgive me for sending this mail without your permission. I am writing this letter in confidence believing that if it is the will of God for you to help me and my family, God almighty will bless and reward you abundantly. I need an honest and trust worthy person like you to entrust this huge transfer project unto.

My name is Mrs. Mary David, The Branch Manager of a Financial Institution. I am a Ghanaian married with 3 kids. I am writing to solicit your assistance in the transfer of US$7,500,000.00 Dollars. This fund is the excess of what my branch in which I am the manager made as profit last year (i.e. 2010 financial year). I have already submitted an annual report for that year to my head office in Accra-Ghana as I have watched with keen interest as they will never know of this excess. I have since, placed this amount of US$7,500,000.00 Dollars on an Escrow Coded account without a beneficiary (Anonymous) to avoid trace.

As an officer of the bank, I cannot be directly connected to this money thus I am impelled to request for your assistance to receive this money into your bank account on my behalf. I agree that 40% of this money will be for you as a foreign partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, and 60% would be for me. I do need to stress that there are practically no risk involved in this. It's going to be a bank-to-bank transfer. All I need from you is to stand as the original depositor of this fund so that the fund can be transferred to your account.

If you accept this offer, I will appreciate your timely response to me. This is why and only reason why I contacted you, I am willing to go into partnership investment with you owing to your wealth of experience, So please if you are interested to assist on this venture kindly contact me back for a brief discussion on how to proceed.

All correspondence must be via my private E-mail (dmary4love1@yahoo.fr) for obvious security reasons.

Best regards,
Mrs. Mary David.
