I’ve uploaded the metrics presentations from Monday night.

We had some great speakers this past Monday, thanks to all who attended and especially Sanji, John, Ryan, and Kevin for their very informative presentations.

Thanks also to Jeff Hunt for the phone projector. He asked me to let everyone know Project-A-Phone is offering a 10% discount to MoMo members (just use the keyword MoMo).

Hey everyone. Mobile Monday is coming up next week (October 16th) at MIT Sloan. Here’s the rundown…

Widsets is being called the best example of Web 2.0 on the phone. After months of buzz, they officially launched last week and Sanji Fernando will be here to show us how to get widgets on the handset.

And we’ll have three premier providers of mobile metrics to provide us with real data on what’s happening in the mobile industry:

• John Jackson, M:Metrics
• Ryan Burke, Compete
• Kevin Burden, Telephia

If any of you have mobile data points that you’ve been waiting to get your hands on, please show up with questions. We’ll set aside plenty of time for Q&A.

Thank you to the group who came out to the past Monday’s show and tell event. We had a lot of fun seeing some “impromptu” hardware and software demos.

We look forward to seeing you at our next Momo in September. Note, we are working on doing a joint event with another group, so we will probably be getting together the third Monday of September (the 18th) rather than the first Monday, as usual. Watch the blog for updates.

For those of you who are interested, Matt Nuffort, who demonstrated his project-a-phone technology at the Momo-Show and Tell, would like to extend a discount out to members of the Boston Momo Group. See your Yahoo group email for details.
