Use community to test your application, great idea: Mob4Hire

I heard this from an old friend, Paul Poutanen that I met in Calgary a few years ago. He's involved with a company called Mob4Hire - cool name ha-ha. And the idea is very simple. For mobile applications - and yes, 700 carriers/mobile operators; 7,500 handsets, 10,000 developers - there is a clear need to do testing of mobile apps, and why not hire a "mob" or a digital community to do it. Crowd sourced mobile application testing. Great idea! And so relevant to mobile as the 7th mass media channel - we can do the testing within our customer base, as the media is interactive. Hoping it will have good success. To find more, got to their website  www.mob4hire.com
