Panel on mobile at Davos: Facebook mobile, LBS, video uploads

Some interesting folks, Chad Hurley of YouTube, Zuckerberg, Craig Mundie, Shananu Narayen of Adobe, Hamid Akhvan VP at T-Mobile and my former professor at Wharton Eric Clemons got together to discuss mobile at Davos.



Techcrunch's Arrington moderated the panel and followed up with a post.

During the discussion Zuck mentioned 25M users of the apps (does not include browsing to x.facebook.com or facebook.com) a month... and Allfacebook posted that it was close to 4M a day with 1.6M from iPhone alone.

Android G1 launched

Wow, the day is finally here. The worst-kept secret in the mobilesphere became true and T-Mobile, Google and HTC announced the first Android phone, the G1.

Walt Mossberg had already posted some initial thoughts on the G1.

Huge Kudos to Andy and the rest of the Android team who started with a big vision to use an OS as a way to make mobile handsets more open and more web-friendly. Several years and a lot of work later, the G1 is the first incarnation of these efforts.

The first device will be available in the US for $179 starting in October with a planned launch in the UK in November and the rest of Europe soon after.
