A Series of Tubes #100 (already!): Ericsson ConsumerLabs founder Henrik Palsson, Stilgherrian on Google and TiVO (and other stuff!)
November 27th, 2009Henrik Palsson, the founder of Ericsson’s ConsumerLabs research operation and now specialising in emerging markets, is a true believer in the value of telecommunications. A mobile phone, he told Sydney journalists and analysts last week, has an even bigger impact in remote Africa than it has in Sydney or Tokyo.
In this live-recorded discussion, Palsson also discusses control over media files, and Ericsson’s vision of a world in which the Internet connects not just six billion people, but fifty billion devices.
Tubes regular Stilgherrian talks again about Google-versus-Murdoch, and about the Google-TiVO tie-up and what it means in terms of controlling the devices we use to access the Internet.
