There’s something in the air today makes me think about Tulip mania. Perhaps it’s the warm weather. Or my allergies. Or maybe it’s this sale I hear is going on today.

Regardless, our contributors this week had a lot to share on the subject of the mobile experience, both in and out of the office. We heard perspectives on how mobility is and will continue to change the structures of the workspace, how mobile is a good channel — but not the only one, got a tip on how to choose your next Enterprise CMS and were urged to keep our content tidy.

Bill Thomas — Sun, 13 May 2012 00:20:03 +0000
