The cellular phone industry is a rapid growing platform for development in all possible fields of science and education as researched by this paper. The capabilities of cellular phones grow each year, allowing us to push the very boundaries of what content is presentable to end users as well as creating new, innovative services. This paper will revisit the Living Lab concept and provide a possible framework for the application of various mobile Web 2.0 and Web 3.0 technologies, to render different envisaged services.enMobile Living LabsKnowledge SharingMashupsWeb 2.0Web 3.0Conference PresentationBuitendag, A., Roux, L., Botha, A., Herselman, M.
