Amazing Velti and Diffusion Blender – full of mobile operators!
We had an amazing GoMo News blender last night at Marmalade in Barcelona. For the first time ever, we had more mobile operators arrive than brands and agencies and start-ups!
This has never happened before! We represented nearly every country with the Telefonica global team, DoCoMo, Orange, Everything Everywhere, T-Mobile, T-Ventures and O2.
I was happy – [...]

Founder and Editor Bena Roberts to leave GoMo News on March 1 2012
I started GoMo News five years ago from my kitchen table and after some time in Ireland in lavish offices or GoMo News Towers (as we called them) …. I end it here back on my kitchen table.
I have learnt so much these past five years and I wouldn’t change them one bit. Even though it was awful, I wouldn’t even change the bit about having breast cancer, chemotherapy and radiation. Having a start-up, living social media, fighting cancer, throwing amazing parties, meeting amazing people and travelling the world – has just made me stronger. Continue reading
GoMo News Blender Sponsored by Velti and Diffusion PR – 1000 tickets gone!
So, it might get a bit busy at our GoMo News Blender sponsored by Velti and Diffusion PR as we have already sold (they are free -but for want of a better word) 1000 tickets!!
But first what is the Blender?
The Blender will take place in Marmalade Bar from 6pm on Tuesday 28th February. Its a fun place for anyone to come and have a drink and some food!
Drink?
Well there will be lots of it. Velti has put a huge amount of money behind the bar for Wine, Beer and Cava or soft drinks.
Diffusion PR has put a wad of dosh down for … cocktails. I believe there will be a choice of four or five and there will be 400 plus cocktail vouchers up for grabs.
Food?
Well we have about 1200 slices of Pizza. There will be all types available from meat to veggie. The Pizza will be served until it runs out from about 7pm. Probably in hourly shifts until there is none left. Continue reading

Would you like to sponsor our mobile advertising directory?
GoMo News has a mobile advertising directory which can be found here.
According to Google Analytics it gets 1200 to 1500 unique visitors per day. We are now in the process of updating it for publication next week.
Would you like to have your name and brand at the top of the page? If you do let – drop me an email benagomo @ gmail.com
GoMo News was launched in 2006 by me (Bena Roberts) from my kitchen table. We were then supported by the TSSG.org in Ireland. Now, 2011, we are in the process of being aquired by bnetTV.com. We report the news independently and often say things that others don’t like.
Someone from Google famously told me, “I hate GoMo News, but I do read you every day”. We are honest and try our best to break stories…
don’t worry…
we are a great friendly bunch really… we would love you to advertise with us. Continue reading

Important GoMo News Update
It was about 11pm at night one July evening in 2006 when I came up with the idea of GoMo News. I wanted to be a blog that made companies afraid…. VERY AFRAID!
I wanted to only report the truth be factual and provide real news and analysis on mobile. I am not sure if I achieved this – but I damn nearly died trying!
