Esri Solutions For Deploying Mobile GIS

by

Esri offers users a host of solutions, designed to be used from PC, web and mobile clients, however, lately there’s definitely huge interest in the mobile ecosystem. The company actually offers 5 solutions they bill as “mobile” offerings. These include ArcGIS for Win Mobile, ArcPad, ArcGIS for Windows Phone and ArcGIS Desktop – each has it’s benefits, price point, and target audience/user.

From Esri… Each of these technologies provides a specific set of capabilities that meets the needs of different end-user application requirements. Trade-offs in software and hardware capabilities, mobile OS, price, size, device ruggedness, and battery life help determine which of these Esri technologies are best suited for your organization’s size, workflow, project scope, and/or development scenario.

For a little more clarification on the mobile solution offerings you might check out this recently published Q&A

To Tweet or Not… The State and Future of Twitter

by

An interesting white paper available from Social Visionary Brian Solis (not familiar with Brian? Check out his website HERE). Brian Solis has been actively writing about new marketing and communications since the mid 90s to document how the Web was redefining the communications industry — he coined PR 2.0 along the way before focusing his efforts on the greater impacts on the future of marketing and media. He was also among the original thought leaders working to organize and define the “Social Media” movement to establish a definitive media category.

It is no longer a question of “to Tweet or not to Tweet.” Tweets are now artifacts of our culture and as such, they symbolize a chapter in societal evolution. See more on Solis’ thoughts on this in this free white paper The State and Future of Twitter
