Mobile in Japan

An interesting presentation by Christopher Billich on why the mobile web works in Japan...

My general take is that Japan is unique and gives us some lessons to emulate but what happens in Japan and stays in Japan...we cannot cut and paste to any other parts of the world!

Hi,

Thanks for posting my presentation. I agree that a simple 1:1 "cut and paste" is bound to fail. But I strongly believe that even though things can be very different in Japan (or for that matter, in any market/culture), some of them would very much translate (note: not transplant) to other parts of the world, adjustments for local culture provided.

Cheers,
Christopher
