Without borders: the mobile social networks of the future

Social media today is often cross platform hell! For every network you need a membership to communicate with your friends there. And until now, the different platforms like MySpace, Facebook or messengers like AOL and MSN are still afraid to enable their users to share their data across platform borders. We are not afraid and believe in open platforms and APIs. And we don’t want this to repeat in the mobile social network world! That’s why together with 12 other mobile communities we made an agreement to enable our joint 30 million users worldwide to share location information and interact between networks.

The alliance, named OSLO (Open Sharing of Location-based Objects) includes many of the pioneers of mobile social networking and location-based social software. The alliance’s founding members include aka-aki, Belysio, Buddycloud, Locle, Mobiluck, Moximity, Nulaz, Palringo, Rummble, Service2Media, Skout, Tooio and WAYN, with more in discussion to join.

Smells like revolution,
the aka-aki team.
