Difficulties in using and accessing new services have been the most frequently mentioned reasons for slow service acceptance in the past. For future mobile services to succeed, it is therefore critical that users are able to get intuitive and convenient access to the services they personally need in a given situation or context. We introduce the concept of Mobile Personality, which allows the mobile user to develop her own online personality in terms of personal preference, usage and service profiles over time, as well as the offered services to acquire a unique proactive behavior. This vision of adaptive personalized services is essentially based on the advanced profiling and personalization concept, context-aware computing as well as flexible and evolvable service support middleware. Through a practical use case and a detailed explanation as well as an interrelation of the essential enablers, this paper gives an insight into the foreseen transition from personal mobility to mobile personality.
