The Future of Mobile: Call for videos

We have questions, we would love to hear your answers.
We want to know your thoughts about mobile phones now and in the future.
What better way to get these answers, we thought, than to have everyone just do the recording on their phone? We’ll feature the results at an upcoming Arizona State University event on mobile technology and the future. The goal is to reflect on the simple, profound ways these devices have changed our lives and the timeless art of self-expression, and to ask where it all might be headed. If you choose to submit, your video will be part of a collection on this site used to inspire conversation about mobile technology and communication. With your permission, we may include it in an edited summary of the responses.
