Exploration of the urban data, technology and its visualisation

By tagging the urban space using data systems and wireless technologies we can create and explore maps and representations of the urban environment in order to experience a place like never before. Invisible complex data, once visualised, can uncover new ways of thinking about, interacting with or discovering our urban surroundings.

Exhibition
3 June – 2 July 2008
Preview 29 May 6pm – 8pm

Artists
Hamilton & Southern with Chris St Amand (UK, Canada)
Clive Gillman (UK)

Amethon launches first Mobile Web specific Analytics application

Saturday, May 31st, 2008

As a lot of people on this list already know Mobile Analytics is hard.

I noticed not a lot of commercial companies have posted messages here but I wanted to post this once only message because although Mobile Web content is still a niche market if you are trying to track mobile browser interactions up until now you know how hard it is and as this is a worlds first, it will be of interest to some of you.

My name is Dean Collins and my role with Amethon is to help them with the USA expansion of their Mobile Analytics family of applications.
This is the worlds first “Mobile Web” specific Analytics application.

None of this really matters for people that are building desktop applications - but if you are building web based content specifically for mobile consumers currently you don’t have an accurate way of obtaining information about website visitors apart from log file analysis which is cpu intensive and can take up to 24+ hours in reporting cycles (is also often faulty/misleading with only partial information available).

Lets face it log file analysis hasn’t been used in desktop browser analytics for over 5 years but until now it’s been the best solution available for tracking mobile browsers.

I’m the first to admit that the mobile web is still a niche market but according to M:Metrics almost 23 million Americans browsed the mobile internet in the 3 months up to 31 May 2007

Mobile Analytics from Amethon Solutions is an application you download onto a server in your data center. It is a pay per use application depending on the number of pages served (good for if you are starting out small).
Statistics provided includes:
• Bandwidth (total, average per visit, total per file type)
• Hits (average per visit, number of downloads, page view breakdown)
• Visits (entry page, average duration, click paths, referring search engine)
• Visitors (browser type, user agent, operating system)
• Handsets (make, model, screen resolution)
• Mobile Operator (country of origin, operator name)
• Geo Location (country of origin, RDNS lookup)

All of which are all pretty standard reporting points…….except that this is the worlds first application that can deliver this information for mobile specific browser traffic.

The Best feature in VODAFONE ?

Saturday, May 31st, 2008

no we dont have the best coverage cause i beleive that om nabil having a better wider coverage but we have a better voice in the call and we beleive so much that we are better just because we beleive in this long time before and our belifes wont help us when others start making what makes us beleive in them
i changed to vodafone when i had a very bad signal at home and vodafone was better in just one room and nothing at all in all other rooms after about 4 months mobinil upgraded its network and became so strong at home and i still have vodafone s the best features is that vodafone created a loyality inside us

3G vs. Edge, 16 gig etc… Apple sucks

Saturday, May 31st, 2008

What do you think?
Went to an Apple store in December said to the guy, “should I wait 6 monts to buy an iPhone cause it will probably be better then?”

aswer: “no way anything is changing with the hardware, only thing that will happen is that it will be open to developers and there will be a ton more software for it but that won’t matter because you can download it. Hardware won’t change.”

I get an iPhone in January. Now it looks like they will have a 3g phone out soon allowing you to actually use the internet, and you can now get a 16gig phone.

I’m stuck with this one and can’t return or exchange it.

I’m selling it on ebay and will never get an Apple product of any sort ever again.

Am I overlooking something?

Erased SMS and Call Logs

Saturday, May 31st, 2008

I’ve noticed that from time to time my SMS and my Call Logs and sometimes my old e-mails get deleted at the same time for no apparent reason. But it’s been doing it all day since yesterday. It doesn’t even let me receive messages… they get deleted instantly. I don’t know if it’s happening because the device memory is full. Just in case I’ve already transferred everything to the memory card to see if this resolves the problem. Has this happened to anyone? Do any of you know why it’s happening?

Analytics

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

Anyone want to discuss analytics? I’ve been looking at a number of mobile forums this weekend and there doesn’t seem to be a lot of discussion about it.

Are people actually tracking these mobile browser interactions of their applications? and I dont mean ‘panel reports’ which should really be called market research rather than analytics.

I know I have a ‘barrow to push’ working for www.amethon.com but it seems most people are just worried about applications looking good on mobiles rather than actually tracking usage.

Check out Mobile Agent for more info or drop me an email if interested in discussion commercials but better still post here and talk about what you are using to measure your mobile interactions..

Windows Mobile to iPhone

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

I’ve dumped my Vario II to get an iPhone. I am finding it an absolute revelation to use. The mobile browsing is what makes it streets ahead but everything is just so smooth.

Internet speeds on the road are quite slow but still usable. Once connected to wi-fi, it is in a class of it’s own. I can’t type quite as fast on it but because there’s no stylus to get out every time, it saves time before you start.

There aren’t any add-on bits of software like on the Windows phones yet but I found they all just caused my ppc to crash every 5 minutes anyway. Good riddance I say. Instead there are “Web apps” like widgets being developed.

The only faults I can find so far are so small, I’m not even gonna mention them.

Basically, it just works and you’ll wonder how and why Windows Mobile was ever even launched.
