Hi
There's a regular mobile HCI conference that started in the UK and has
now gone international. See http://mobilehci.soberit.hut.fi/program for
the 2006 programme. People like Steve Brewster for Glasgow University
Computing Science work in this area.

Subject: [PSCI-COM] Mobile communities
Hello all,
I'm doing some research into 'mobile communities' and am looking for
people I may be able to contact. By 'mobile communities' I mean the way
mobile phones have affected community structures, human interaction
(good and bad), it's influence from a cultural perspective (cultural
shifts) and why some technologies work better than others etc.
Part of my task is to build a brief profile of the major events in the
past that have led to where we are now and research into modes of
communication using mobiles in the future (wireless Internet Messaging
being one that is popular).
Does anyone know where I can find the latest research being carried out
in this area or experts on this topic? One person I have in mind is
mobile communications expert at Ofcom, Professor William Webb, but a
psychologist's perspective on what 'community' in this context actually
means would be useful as well.
Any advice appreciated,
Many thanks
Cato
