También se hace balance en cuanto a la relevancia social y económica de la computación social y se exponen sus implicaciones en relación con la innovación y la competitividad. Además, el documento plantea cambios y oportunidades en los ámbitos de la investigación y de las políticas.

Based on a better understanding of IS development paths in these countries and the related factors influencing them, this article discusses the potential inter-relations and synergies between IS developments in general and eGovernment

In this paper, it is argued that mobile social computing will eventually cause an even bigger impact in the mobile ecosystem. We are already at the beginning of the "transference" of a significant part of Internet social computing usage to the mobile domain, where users are no longer passive consumers of content and applications, but co-creators and even innovators of them. However, mobile social computing will go one step further in the contribution to the development of the mobile ecosystem, since it will put the many situations of users' daily activities at the centre stage. To prove this case, this paper gathers available data and evidence on the patterns of mobile social computing usage and discusses user innovation and user empowerment in the framework of the current mobile ecosystem.
