Celebrating 10 years of Mobile Media & Communication

Abstract

Welcome toMobile Media & Communication’s second decade! It is indeed rewarding to see that the journal has moved through its early teething years (and its adolescence) and is now a well-established venue for scholars working in the area of mobile communication studies. With this introductory article, we would like to take the opportunity to thank all of our colleagues who have made contributions to the success of Mobile Media & Communication. Indeed, it is gratifying to have seen the trajectory of the journal. We wish to recognize the authors who have contributed their work through the years, and, not the least, we recognize the reviewers who have contributed their time to critically read the articles that have been submitted. We would also like to thank the people at SAGE who have helped us navigate the shoals of founding and nurturing the journal. During the past decade, something more than 250 articles have been published (based on over 1,350 submissions). These have been both general submissions and submissions to special issues on a variety of sub-topics. A result of all this work is that the journal has become indexed. Indeed, as of this writing,Mobile Media & Communication has a 2-year impact factor of 3.9, positioning it among the 25 most cited communication journals.
