Watch the part on China and mobile. I was recently in China for one week with 40 Dutch entrepreneurs and innovators in digital media. It was my highlight of this year so far. Impressive stats on the Chinese mobile market like 550 million mobile phone users, 56 million mobile internet users (while 3G services are just one month active in this huge market) and China Mobile is 4 times the market value of Vodafone and thus the largest mobile operator (MNO) in the whole world. Clearly, in a few years most mobile innovation will come from China due to their incredible ambition, growth (potential), economies of scale and availability of hundreds of thousands of highly educated and eager mobile/IT graduates across the whole mobile ecosystem. Yearly, that is Think about the implications of these numbers for a few minutes.

[...] The CWR guys write: “MU Rong (Founder/CEO of PepTalk) told us that in some high WAP traffic generation area like Guangdong province, lots of people don’t have a PC. Mobile phone is their only way to access Internet. So when we talk about mobile UGC in China, we are looking at a much larger market than only thinking of Internet UGC.” [...]

Looks like current mobile content are still mainly of text.

We are expecting more rich content showing on the mobile internet.

& Monternet is totally not like internet. Mobile operator don’t want to loose the control.

When will the real flat-rate subscription mode to open the monternet?

I am interested in attending the Mobile Monday Shanghai, is it ok to attend next time?

I chatted with Mu Rong before the meeting. My UGC classification is like this:

Browser-based UGC = static content
IM-based UGC = dynamic content

At http://www.bbqun.com, we also have a lot of UGC from the chat rooms. We save all of them in the database. They can be viewed from a browser under certain permission. How to make money from there? It’s a challenge.
