The next wave of social media site: The next Twitter if you like! Will take direct information from your mobile phone without the need for you to even input in or make a Tweet or a post. It will report what you have purchased, what you have eaten, how active you've been, how long you slept, where you slept and what other and who's devises you were close to. Taken on a daily basis this information will be fairly bland and dull but collated over a number of months and years it would begin to tell some pretty interesting individual stories for individuals, for families, for corporations, for communities and for nations. Very interesting social and commercial opportunities begin to emerge from the above and companies should begin to structure themselves now to be ready for this next level of information they will imminently have available to them.
Questions: Who will own this information? What new legislation will be required to limit its flow? Is such information private or public if it is voluntarily reported? Should there be age restrictions on reporting and accessing such information?
