Mobile Media & Communication is a peer-reviewed forum for international, 
interdisciplinary academic research on the dynamic field of mobile media 
and communication. The journal draws on a wide and continually renewed 
range of disciplines, engaging broadly in the concept of mobile 
communication. It embraces both quantitative and qualitative approaches 
to the study of mobile communication while applying state-of-the-art 
methods and theory. The center of gravity for the journal is in social 
sciences and humanities. The journal publishes three times a year in 
print and online.

Veronika Karnowski, Rich Ling and Adriana de Souza e Silva are looking 
for applicants to join Adriana de Souza e Silva when Veronika Karnowski

Editor while one new applicant will work as Editor, eventually
