Going to the Mobile World Congress 2008?

Are you planning on going along to the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona next year? Me? I’m still annoyed at their no-blogger policy. That really wound me right up. Incidentally, I’m going along to speak to some brands thinking of going along next year — they’re looking for my perspective on interacting with bloggers at the event. The first point I’m going to make? Get the GSMA to change it’s no-blogger policy.

Anyway, I got a mail in today from Global Concierge Services explaining that they offer a whole raft of hotel and concierge related services for the event:

If you have not yet book accommodations or venues for the 2008 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona don’t delay.

I don’t know them from Adam so I can’t recommend them — however they may well be useful. An apartment for 600 EURO a week sounds good to me. Their site is at www.the-gcs.com.

I haven’t decided if I’m going to bother going.
