Podcast: What We learned at Location Intelligence 2007

We focus in on two of the presentations at last week’s Location Intelligence Conference. One, by Yahoo’s Frazier Miller, director of product management for Yahoo Local, gave a surprising set of numbers about the potential size of teh local search marketplace. The second, from SiRF’s Kanwar Chadha, Founder and Vice President of Marketing, highlighted how we’ve barely begun to realize the scope of location in mobile devices.

The podcast is 14 minutes long (< 6 Mb) and was recorded on April 20, 2007.
