ForumOxford, the web-discussion forum of the Technology Programme, was established a little over a year ago to bring together the best thinkers in the telecoms industry to enable the sharing of ideas on all aspects of mobile applications with other like-minded members of the community. ForumOxford has been a huge success and now has over 1200 members with participants from over 60 countries and from six continents. Recent popular discussion topics have included 'Surfing the web at a fair price', 'The Meaning of iPhone, Part II', 'What are the next BIG mobile services?', 'Seamless mobility, what does it mean to you?' and 'Will VoIP be the end of traditional telecoms'.
