Pringo and Mozes announce partnership to bring social networking to mobile phones

A few days back, Pringo, a social networking solutions provider, joined hands with Mozes, a mobile marketing company, to take its social networking platform to the next level.

Pringo offers social networking platform which companies can use to build an online community with their existing user base. Mozes, on the other hand, offers mobile marketing solutions through an on-demand mobile marketing platform.

Thanks to this partnership, Pringo users will now be able to use Mozes’ platform to create text messages, games, polls, and many other things to connect with each other. They can also use mobile web effectively to connect with each other. Pringo is confident that with the ability to connect with each other using mobile technology, people will be able to enjoy social networking further and companies will find it easier to build online communities based on Pringo’s solutions. Also, this will be the perfect platform for brands to reach their target customers through advertising. You can offer ad-supported mobile content for users and grab their attention.

I’ve blogged a lot about social networking going completely mobile and this is yet another instance which reinforces my faith. Especially with high-end mobile phones becoming affordable, mobile social networking could become tremendously popular.

Your mobile phone can help you avoid speeding tickets

I just came across this news. There’s a new website on the block which alerts you about police speed traps.

Trapster.com is a new mobile social networking website which has taken up the noble task of alerting people about police speed traps. Skyhook Wireless, a Boston based company, helps Trapster with its location positioning technology.

All you need to do is, sign up for free and download it to your mobile phone. You’re good to go. There are two ways in which this technology can assist you.

1. You can get a roadmap of your area in your mobile screen. It will show you all the speed traps in your area.

2. Users can send alerts among each other. If, on seeing a speed trap, a user pressed “pound one” button in his phone, other users in the same area who are driving above the speed limit would get alerts on their mobile phone.

The technology works mostly with high-end phones and PDAs. Although this is a fairly new technology, a lot of companies have approached Trapster.com regarding advertising.

So there you go guys. No more pains of getting speeding tickets. Though it sounds good, I have a different idea. In fact, a simpler one. Why don’t you just drive at normal speed???
