The mini-interviews with the mesh guys keep rolling in. Mark Evans, one of top mobile/wireless bloggers chimes in with his answers to the five questions as we gear up for mesh 2008. 1. What is your favorite anecdote or moment from the past two mesh conferences?

The data tend to confirm what I have suggested in the past: In the UK, blogs haven't reached the status that they have in other markets. But that said, other forms of social media have. Indeed, the same table shows adoption of online video in the UK to be significant. It's also worth noting that this information dates from last year, which is an eternity when it comes to social media.
