The URL for the comScore press release has changed to http://comscore...net_Usage_Grows. There are a lot of links to this press release around, so too bad for them that they’re not redirecting it. Come on, comScore! Cool URLs don’t change.

Hi Bob… Liked your comments on Techcrunch. I’m looking for people to do interviews on this same subject for CBS5 in Silicon Valley if you are in this region, would you be interested? Would need to do this ASAP.

Thanks,
Len

Interesting, but wish comScore told us how much the mobile population (and not just news consumption) has grown year over year.

This is mixed news, at best. While the audience size is growing on the mobile deck, the infrastructure to monetize those eyeballs is still lagging. The one thing that seems to be getting the best traction is “Top 10″ (or whatever number you prefer) lists. Geo-tagged and interest-tagged news lists have a big future – we’re all so time-crunched these days that we just want there to be a very specific, very accurate way to just focus in on the items that we feel we need to know.

And then, of course, to click over to the piece on the latest starlet with an arrest warrant out on her.

Eric, I carefully analyzed your post and realized that it does not make much sense. Your assumptions are incorrect unlike mine, that are always valuable and appreciated by the most notable and learned Internet personalities, which, of course, I consider myself part of.
Please apply yourself. We need better articles here on Techcrunch. Greetings.

It is bound to happen. As someone above me already stated, phones are the new computers. Now if only they could start making them big enough to navigate the touch screens. That would be great. I’d pay extra for a bigger screen.

Eric,

I looked at the link you provided to the ComScore press release, and I think you are not interpreting the data correctly.

The data only shows the fastest growing categories, and then ranks the activities within that subset.

So it is not crrect that, as you write “The second most popular mobile activity was social networking”

Under your interpretation of the data in the comscore press release, this would mean that common activities such as checking mail and doing Google searches rank BELOW activities like trading stocks or doing online banking … which presumably would not make much sense.
