Are analysts too conservative about mobile social networks?
The 174M users at 2011 mentioned in Mobile social networks and phone statistics is of course anyone's guess and in my opinion too conservative considering it's 50M today according to ABI Research, and e.g. China and India are dominated by phones instead of PCs, and frankly worldwide mobile phones also dominate over PCs. These countries therefor rely more on phones for information and communication. Hence most young people at 2011 will mainly communicate via mobile phones, and almost everyone will have a mobile phone. It's very unlikely there would be a revolution in PC sales similar to the growth of mobile phones.
