Mobile Discussion Lists

Mobile discussion lists are becoming increasingly common, allowing mobile groups to hold discussions. One of the latest offerings is Cellphedia. This is very similar to the mobile discussion list prototype we used in the recent paper posted below.

"Cellphedia is a thesis project created by me - Limor Garcia - a graduate student at the Interactive Telecommunications Program at NYU.

I have created Cellphedia for the curious mobile phone community (which is almost all of us). It is an application that enables its users to send and receive up-to-date encyclopedia-type information amongst each other, on the go, through SMS. I call it: 'The first ubiquitous social encyclopedia'. "

Here's another article describing how it works.
