5 billion people do not have access to the internet. How do we reach those 5 billion? Cell phones. There are 7 billion cell phones out there, yes billion with a 'b'
Those of us in suburban America cannot see it but we are in a mobile phone boom in our world, not an internet boom. The reason is simple, the cost of digging a trench to every persons house is just too expensive. But putting just one cell tower in a village, that is cheap. Some call this the 'last mile.' Mobile phones are great to reach the 'last mile'
But the problem with a cheap cell phone is that it lacks all the cool info and interaction seen on the internet. Mango Jane’s products creates a web 2.0 experience for those only using text messaging. Just imagine the biggest web 2.0 sites, our products can give a good representation of most of those sites. Wikis, video sites, blogs, social networking, your schools website, pizza delivery, maps, sending your doctor a picture of the injury, etc.
Thus giving those 6 billion mobile phone users the information they need to improve their business or family or anything else. Seriously, imagine taking care of your family without the internet? Imagine being successful in your job without the internet? Even traveling to a hospital in an obscure town. This is the life of most people on earth. Mango Jane will change this. Most importantly, creating any of those sites requires just a few lines of code. Thus any small business can make a text-to-order-my-pies service or blog-on-why-they-rock-at-repairing bikes or really anything described above. We made the engine to create these sites. Small businesses can make any app they want with just a little code.
