Not sure if any of you out there read DigiDay.com but it’s a great site with some quality articles and informatoin about the digital/interactive business. I would recommend putting it on your daily read list.
Todays headline grabbed my attention.
“Confessions of a Mobile Marketing Vendor” It’s a good read and very eye opening. I agree with most of what this guy/gal is saying, especially a bout how agencies are still trying to figure out mobile and how the “future” is really only about 12 months away. Check it:

That’s not how it’s going to work. You can’t just jump in to this area.
