I heard a piece on the BBC World Service on Monday that for the life of me, I cannot track down. It was an discussion of the way people use the mobile internet. I was certain I would finally find a link to it here, but, alas, it was nowhere to be found. Can anyone help me?

(BTW, I've listened to the leader of just about every program done during the week...)

Thanks!

Can't be sure but it's likely to have been Digital Planet - available to listen again off the programme site here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/programmes/digital_planet.shtml

or via iTunes. They ran an item on accessing data on the move....

I read the summary, it did not mention it, but I am listening now. Maybe it's hidden somewhere on the program.

Thanks so much for the response!

It was there: tacked on to the end of the surveillance piece. Just in case anyone else is interested: it was an interesting piece on mobile content delivery. But you have to listen quickly before it comes down.
