Having worked in videogames and mobile, I could not miss the first London Mobile Monday of 2012. “Mobile Games” was the hot topic of the night, discussed by a great panel of professionals and chaired by Oscar Clark of Papaya Mobile. Not that one would want to miss any of these industry gatherings, but, for me, it was also the first time on the volunteer side. In fact, they even gave me the chance to blog about the event, so here I am.
While on the tube to go to the event, I was thinking about the topic. I personally feel that video games and mobile industry are converging towards something different, and mobile games development is driving the innovation. The new mobile and tablet platform allowed games to change, thanks mainly to three new features: touchscreens, connectivity and portability.

The London Mobile Week!
30th September to 7th of October and now 8 mobile events!
Droidcon, Planet of the Apps, Over The Air, TechHub, Apps Junction, FrenchMobile, MMA, Sybase Enterprise Workshop...
As the organizers of Droidcon next week in London we realized that there was quite a lot of mobile events going on in London that week!
So we contacted all of them and decided to call the week London Mobile Week and here it goes! It's taking a life of its own:
Whether you're developers, marketers, investors you know where to head off next week!
If you want...
As WIP is the co-organizer of Droidcon London to take place on the 6-7 of October, we'll be sharing a few blog from Droidcon to give you a flavour of what will happen! We hope to see you there!
This is the second installment of our Speaker Friday where every Friday we'll be announcing new speakers at Droidcon.
This week we're keeping with the holiday mood with our "Play Hard" theme!! Announcing 2 Android games developers!
Yosi Taguri
The maker of the game Pah! 
Haven't heard of it? That is quite surprising, there is an entire (noisy) youtube channel dedicated to the game ! 350,000 downloads on iPhone and just arrived on Android Market (or any Andoid appstore you use!)
Yosi will be talking about Pah! (obviously) and how he's been using Bluevia's Android SDK to find new innovative ways to interact with users and generate revenues. He'll also touch on porting from iPhone to Android and succeeding in the mobile games business!

Mustafa K....
With all the WIPJams of the year behind now behind us it's time for us to express our views!!
What is it about?
It's all about understanding methods, processes, tricks that will get your apps up in the charts! Especially looking at multi-appstore strategies.
Is it real?
The increased traffic on our appstore catalog and downloads of our appstore catalog app are here to demonstrate a superior sophistication when it comes to appstore placement...
Does it...
