Social networking goes mobile… with MySpace
February 7, 2007
Vodafone and MySpace.com announced today a partnership to offer Vodafone customers a MySpace experience via their mobile phones in Europe.
Launching first in the UK, the partnership will enable millions of Vodafone customers to access MySpace Mobile, allowing them to edit their own MySpace profiles, find and add friends, post photos and blogs and send and receive MySpace messages while on the move.
MySpace Mobile will be pre-loaded on future, selected Vodafone handsets to offer customers an ‘out of the box’ experience, and available for download from Vodafone live!.
MySpace was bought by News Corp over a year ago for US$580M, the social networking site is in the top 10 most popular web destinations in the world and has enjoyed massive growth in the past years.
Similar deals have already been announced between MySpace and Cingular and Helio both in the US. An amusing ad for the MySpace Helio offering is below:
