Discovery No. 15 – mobile phones

My life is in my mobile phone.  My calendar, both work and home, all my contacts, photos which I can upload to my netbook, my work email, and it makes and receives phone calls!   The only downside is that I am available 24/7, but I can always turn it off.

In public libraries, I think we should look at reaching customers where they are.  If 30% of teenagers have a mobile phone, we should try sending a text reminding them of a due date, marketing our programs and activities.  The teenagers I know are never without their mobile.  It could be worth a try.
