http://upcoming.yahoo.com/tag/digital/ Tag Search feed on Upcoming. Sun, 12 Oct 2008 04:37:49 -0700 Upcoming 60 en-us first Wednesday of every month. It's a grass-roots knowledge sharing and networking social for folks involved or interested in all forms of technology and creative media.

This month
We've surrendered our usual venue this month for the Sheffield International Documentary Festival. Instead of huddles and talks, we'll be doing our own screening of a series of short geeky films and animations as a wind-down before the enormity of BarCamp Sheffield at the end of November.

If you have any short geeky films that you've made or think are worthy of the GeekUp Film Festival, then message me or add a comment below.

What is GeekUp?
GeekUp is a community of tech-minded folk from the North of England. Our socials take place once a month in Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Preston, Chester and Sheffield and are always a lively place to share ideas and spread a little knowledge.

There were over 3 billion mobile phones last year across the world, the most ubiquitous device for communicating and consuming media that exists- more than laptops, ipods, game boys. Mobile phones represent our every day "entertainment-delivery-devices" and will continue to grow as the technologies supporting them improve.

This panel will focus on what this trend means for media, how media companies are going mobile and what the next generation of devices and content will look and feel like. What are the devices of the future? What content will people expect to have and what will they use? What new technologies and services are coming our way? Who cares and who's investing now for the future?
