Thanks to the host (Orange Labs) and organizers of Mobile Monday Boston for the chance to attend a mobile social networking panel last night. I wanted to just write a few of my notes.

• Mobile Phones are great social networking tools for a variety of reasons such as they are always with you, are key content creators (camera, microphone, keypad), have access to your location and make it easy to get your attention
• Nobody mentioned 3G at all, everyone mentioned facebook ( I just created a momo boston facebook group )
• Paying for your shortcode is expensive
• The four wireless carriers in the US continue to control distribution
