Mobile Technology: The Business and Information Miracle?

Mobile Technology: The Business and Information Miracle?, Online wallets have become the way to pay. With the launching of the global e-commerce company Pay-Pal in 2002 in San Jose, California, a way to pay for goods and services via a mobile phone seemed at the time to be the only best way to pay. Now, its on with the next new technology as Pay-Pal is now truly global and has spread it workforce to China as of 2012. Since the launching of Pay-Pal, there have been other online mobile payment companies to emerge.

What are some of the ways that mobile technology has transformed as a transaction platform to help consumers globally? According to mover and shaker in the mobile technology market, Mobile Company Executive Erdolo Emolo ,interviewed by Susan Wright for Investment Underground says, "I'm passionate about where mobile technology is taking our society. I'm an advocate of this as a solution to many of the problems that ail our planet. It gives the disenfranchised information as we were able to witness with the Arab Spring. It offers a livelihood to farmers in Africa who need micro financing. It offers connectivity and a voice to those who lack it." Emolo's company also grew various business revenues by 400% in 2012.

Also besides being a powerful tool for online selling and business, mobile payment and information technology is a tool that having a profound affect on health outcomes. In South Africa, a mobile app called MAMA, its users (mothers) "receive daily text messages, filled with tips and reminders about the health of their babies."

UNICEFF reports that 4,300 mothers die in South Africa every year due to complications of pregnancy and childbirth, 20,000 babies are still born and other 23,000 die in their first month of life." With the continuing rise of mobile technology and more ways to pay for goods, services and to get information, there will be even more options. Perhaps the number of mobile device users is an indicator of how sales and information platforms will be impacted.

According to the Pew Internet Research Organization, "the rise of mobile digital devices has already altered the environment.Cell phone usage has already penetrated deep into American society. Fully 84% percent of American adults own a cellphone, a figure that has remained relatively stable since 2008."

The research goes further in supporting the habits of cell-phone users. "Two-thirds of cell phone users take advantage of mobile phone features such as texting, e-mailing, web-browsing and "apps." The MAMA mobile information sources provides information to mothers "through five different channels, including an interactive website, text messages, social networking and voicemails."

Eromo, now Senior Vice-President of Sales and Client Services at Mobile Messenger, also says about his interest in mobile technology, "as a kid growing up in South Los Angeles, I never had the exposure to technology. However I grew up in a home where leadership, integrity and hard work were valued. Those three characteristics created the opportunity that led to my success. I immediately saw the potential that mobile technology has to change society and I wanted to be apart of it."
