Our Shared Mobile Future - from a design perspective

Moiaphoto2003smallThis morning, I read a thought-provoking piece about Our Shared Mobile Future. The author, Marko Ahtisaari, the director of design strategy at Nokia. He's also a bassist and interdisciplinarian (like me) and clearly a deep thinker. Based on this post, I've blogrolled him. Here's an outline (which he kindly provides at the end of the post - nice touch!)

Introduction: Scale
1. Reach
2. Sometimes Off vs. Always On
3. Hackability
4. Social Primitives
5. Openness
6. Simplicity
7. Justice

And here's my favorite quote:

Brian Eno summarizes well the essence of hackability: "An important aspect of design is the degree to which the object involves you in its own completion."
