Spam sucks and on your mobile phone it’s even worse.

I use AT&T, [...]

Text 2 screen polls and audience response are two of the easiest ways to get the people in the crowd involved in what’s going on with your event.

According to a new report by Nielsen Company, US teenagers have been cited as the fastest growing audience enamored of mobile content.
