Social Media and Cell Phones to Marry and Live Happily Ever After. Who doesn’t love a great romance?

The greatest are the ones where you absolutely love both the hero and the heroine (no, honey, not that kind) and then the music rises, they stare deeply into each other’s eyes, and the long passionate kiss commences! {sigh}

And so begins the love affair between the cell phone and social media. Hmm…I wonder what their kids will look like.

A new report from Juniper Research found that the continuing increase in smartphone convergence and the rise of geosocial networking will push the number of mobile social media users from 650 million this year to 1.3 billion by 2016 which is greater than the total number of social media users currently on all of the platforms.

Staggering.

That means that all those who have been reluctant to get on board with the social media craze (such as myself) have to suck it up and get over or get left behind.

More importantly, this also means that those businesses who have also been reluctant to get on board with the last technological boom (a.k.a. the Internet Superhighway) are going to become ancient artifacts as the world continues to move on without them.  Bottom line....you might want to get a website now.

It also means that design companies like mine had better start producing some pretty amazing mobile platforms for websites. Some people all already going without even looking at a laptop on a daily basis but still tweet, surf, and update with the best of 'em. 

So keep an eye out as this relationship develops and follow me as I keep my promise to find eccentric ways of maximizing this technological merger. In the meantime, just break down and get plugged in. Before long, you’ll be glad you did.
