Ito, Mizuko. 2004. "Personal, Portable, Pedestrian: Lessons from Japanese Mobile Phone Use." Paper presented at Mobile Communication and Social Change, the 2004 International Conference on Mobile Communication in Seoul, Korea, October 18-19.
A very interesting, very international conference. This paper is something of a preview of my book with Daisuke Okabe and Misa Matsuda coming out next year with MIT Press, and reviews some of the issues particular to Japan in mobile phone uptake.
