Nokia, with their 71% smart phone market share in the region, says mobile navigation is its fastest growing area. Blackberry and HTC are the runner ups with a market share of approx.7%. But most likely they will be overtaken by Apple in Q3, due to the launch of Iphone 3G in many of the countries in the region. GPS – enabled mobile phones not only serve the ability to navigate, but also communicate, we have already seen a rapid growth within LBS (location based services) with big players entering the market.

Twitter is becoming a very popular microblogging site/tool that more or less gives the answer to one question “ What are you doing?” You create your own network by following friends or people you find interesting, and others can follow you. By following, means that you are subscribing to a persons updates, people subscribing to your updates are your followers. An update or “tweet” if you like, can only be of 140 characters or less. If you got the correct tools, Twitter is really easy to use from the mobile phone. We have made that tool for you by including Twitter to the myGeolog mobile application, all you have to do is to enter your Twitter login details in the application (first time only), and you can start twittering from your mobile. But hey, why stop there? Most people are familiar with Facebook, no introduction needed. But Facebook has made some changes lately, regarding status updates. A Twitter user will see the resemblance right away. The new status update field from Facebook “What are you doing right now?” are not very different from Twitter. So we decided to include Facebook status update to the myGeolog mobile application as well. We have of course made our own little twist to it all by including the GPS position to your updates, that is if you have an GPS mobile phone. Remember to install the myGeolog Facebook application in order to update your status and post mobile photos to Facebook. Check it out, and tell us what you think.
