What Makes Mobile Video Different?
If you were looking for one defining characteristic of mobile video, compared to all other formats, "sharing" would be a logical candidate for that unique feature.
In a recent survey by the Interactive Advertising Bureau of 200 mobile video viewers, 92 percent of respondents said that they share mobile video content with others, eMarketer reports.
The most popular method of sharing listed by respondents was through posts on Facebook or similar social sites (56 percent).
But 44 percent said they share videos simply by passing their mobile device off to a friend. In other words, formal sharing by instant message, text message, email or a social network post actually understates the amount of video sharing.

General-purpose technologies do not come along very often, but when they do, they change life, economies and industries.
