I was amazed to learn that iphone sales outpace births - really?  I knew that iphones were popular but never thought of it in those terms.  The fact that more people own a mobile phone than a toothbrush is unbelievable.  I, alone, have 3 toothbrushes!!

90% of tweets are from mobile phones sounds low to me.  I actually thought it'd be closer to 100%.  I liked Qualman's quote "not properly investing in mobile is akin to buying a teacup to sail around the world."  Everything is social media today and I believe you have to have a presence to be competitive.  When people are looking for goods and services, they search the web - if you don't have a presence, your competition will get your business.  People love to share what they love and what they hate - it's not enough to just have a presence, you have to be competitive and provide a quality product at a reasonable price and provide excellent customer service.  If you don't , everyone will know it and tell it!

I went into the "iphone world" kicking and screaming.  I never used my phone, wasn't on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest or anything.  I used my mobile phone only as a phone and nothing else.  Then my husband made me get one.  Now, I love it.  I joined Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and several others.  I keep notes and dates in my phone and if I lost it, I'd be lost!  As frustrating as it is to see people attached to their iphones at all times, I do see the necessity of it - it is a technical, social media world and you have to be part of it or get left behind - if  you can't beat 'em, join 'em!
