State of the Mobile Nations - Forums (Q1 2012)

The United Nations of Mobile!

We love our communities! Each of our individual sites -- Android Central, CrackBerry.com, iMore, WPCentral and webOSNation -- has its own incredibly passionate and knowledgeable community of users. Each has its own strong identity and we never want to compromise that. Which is why we went with Mobile Nations as our community network brand. It allows us to continue to respect the culture of our individual communities while continuing to push all of the sites forward and making it more welcoming for users who switch between platforms to find their way into another Mobile Nations community.

We want to continue to make our communities even stronger. The ten questions below will only take you a few minutes and will help guide us on that mission. Thanks for participating!
