Abstract

Quickly emerging usage of multimedia messages offers new approach for mobile and collaboration between users and services by providing a mature and easy accessible technology. This paper investigated possibilities of location related messaging, where pictorial and textual information are combined. We present a model involving contextual information delivery for a mobile user, and evaluate it by user tests with location sensitive multimedia messaging representing different application categories. The results show that the functionality and social acceptance varies between different message categories. It is suggested that distinct information elements should employ sharing and access right management, and a commonly agreed categorization system is required for successful information filtering.
