More Twitter Highlights Below from DigiDay Mobile:

The Mobile Marketer Roundtable: The Elephant in the Room: The Economy: What impact will it have (or won't have) on mobile? And how can marketers use mobile to gain the edge in a down market? How does an agency and marketer justify spending on an emerging media platform such as mobile in such turbulent times? And will brands spend more on Mobile this year? How does a brand value the mobile consumer and the ROI associated with it? And how are brands integrating mobile into other channels? What are the current barriers for scale? Is it the technology? The carriers? The consumer? The advertiser? The marketers, carriers, technology execs, and buyers debate and reveal the issues and what the future holds for mobile.
