:: Service creation platforms ::
The problem looming is that with all these different potential services - foneblogs, picture galleries, email etc, it would be a shame to have lots of different sites to access. Operator portals are an obvious place to coalesce these services and operators need to think about integration of 3rd party services at the portal level. In my mind, there is a product opportunity for someone to supply operators with a decent service-creation portal that can enable any combination of useful applications to be brought together on a targetted user-group level. Just like community sites like Ecademy site are built using Drupal (or something like Plone - cool if you like Python), wireless portals should be possible using a similar concept, but the difference would be a charging concept that would enable the 3rd party to share revenue.
This idea is what we (Magic E) had originally intended with Zingo when we created the world's first wireless portal as a demonstrator for Lucent's 3G capabilities (a long time back!). We should have stuck to our guns as I think the time is right for this! Any takers??
