Meet us at the Mobile World Congress. This year we will be presenting some of our latest products and innovations:
Revolution or evolution? We love the iPad for what it is, an amazing multimedia device.
Will the iPad replace books and newspapers? Probably not but who cares, people will buy it anyway! Golden Gekko has just started our first projects for the iPad and more about this will follow soon.
To predict the future we must first understand the past. Therefore this year’s top 10 list consists of the top 5 activities in mobile 2009 and our top 5 predictions for 2010.
1. The year of mobile marketing
Every year for the last six years some analyst, media agency, operator or handset manufacturer has forecasted that the next year will be the year of mobile marketing. We are happy to say that from our perspective 2009 was the year when mobile marketing took off. The past 12 months have been incredible in terms of interest around mobile marketing, despite a very difficult financial environment for the advertising industry.
Ogilvy develops Christmas app for iPhone, Android, Blackberry and most other camera phones in partnership with Golden Gekko.
Like Bing Crosby, but smaller and easier to control, Let It Snow brings you the magic of a white Christmas wherever you are.
Syncing with your iPhone camera, this smart little app works by adding a gently-falling veil of snow to anything you view. Just click the button and look… it’s snowing!
Golden Gekko develops iPhone app for Heineken to increase drinking awareness.
We all know someone who sometimes has one too many to drink on a night out. Whether they transform into a Fighter, an Exhibitionist, a Groper, a Flirt, a Sleeper, a Crier or a Stumbler, you can be sure they're going to cause you problems.
In the end of October Vodafone launched the Vodafone 360 app store for 300+ million Vodafone customers worldwide with applications based on JIL open standards. JIL which is a partnership for mobile widgets between Vodafone, Verizon Wireless, China Mobile and Softbank with the potential of reaching over a 1 Bn customers in the next couple of years. Initially the focus will be on two new handsets from Samsung as well as most existing Symbian handsets but overtime JIL will be rolled out across more and more handsets to reach all customers. The platform provides very similar features to the iPhone in terms of user experience and capabilities.
