If you are a Sprint user, you can’t afford to miss this news flash.
First announcement
MySpace has partnered with Sprint to make its MySpace Mobile website just a click away for Sprint customers. Starting from 2008, you don’t have to type the URL of MySpace Mobile website into your mobile phone’s browser to access it. It will be just a click away and you’ll be able to access it from the Sprint portal.
I really think this is a good step on MySpace’s part. Personally, typing a URL into the mobile phone’s browser is a Herculean task for me and I’m sure a lot of you feel the same way. So, a mobile website, that too of MySpace, which is just a click away is always good news. This can also increase the number of visitors tremendously as far as the website is concerned, as it’s already very popular with mobile phone users. Ever since its release in September, the MySpace Mobile website http://mobile.myspace.com has attracted over a million unique visitors, which is very good by any standards. Also, the new version is supposed to be better and bigger than the old one with rich graphics, images, new and upgraded email interface, and many other options which the old version lacked.
Now, the second announcement.
As a Sprint customer, you’ll not just be able to access the new version of MySpace Mobile, but also a host of websites including FOXSports.com, Askmen.com, and many more from Fox Interactive Media. If you’re a long time Sprint user, this news should not surprise you as Sprint has been bringing in all the latest stuff from the FOX network including sports scores, weather updates, traffic data, and many other things. Now, all these websites will be just a click away from you, starting from 2008.
To be able to access websites with just a click is something everyone loves. It saves a helluva time and makes mobile surfing easier than ever. As the market experts keep insisting, the success of mobile phone advertising and marketing depends on how the “powers that be” make mobile browsing easier for the customers. If that’s the case, then I should say Sprint has moved in the right direction.
