OrSiSo – Give it a Spin

I’m attending the Mobile Marketing Forum in Singapore at the moment and jolly interesting it is too. Overall, the spurious “year of mobile marketing” (not that there is such a thing really – I mean when was the year of the car, or the internet?) does seem to be in the past. Brands such as [...]
