First Event: User Generated Content

The first meet of Mobile Monday took place on 27th November evening. The venue was auditorium in Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) auditorium.

The representation was a diverse mix of people with mobile and non-mobile backgrounds. The group discussed on how it wanted MoMo Hyderabad to shape up. This included content, format, venue and timing.

The discussion on User Generated Content (UGC) was led by Bhawna Sawhney and Sumeet Nandal, from product management group of IMImobile, an end-to-end mobile VAS provider. The group debated the forms of UGC - blogs, voice recordings, art works etc. Do we need a model in which owner of the content is paid for the content reuse? Does UGC needs moderation considering the threat of objectionable and plagiarised content?

The venue soon shifted from the TCS auditorium to the dining hall where a delectable dinner was awaiting. Sincere thanks to TCS for playing host to the event.

Till we meet again
MoMo Hyderabad Chapter.
