"Mobile Social Behaviors"

How's mobility changing our behaviors?

Where we need, what we need, when we need, who we need

Mobile phones know where we are, but they do not have any idea about what we need, when we need it and who we need.
My passion is to experiment and gain a better understanding of choices we make through mobile devices.
