Social Networking From Your Cell

A small startup VCEL (Virtual Communication Expression & Lifestyle) has unveiled a new social networking service for cell phones. All you need to do to keep in contact with your friends 24/7 is to create a profile with their website, download a Java application for your cell phone (more than 20 models are supported already), and send an invitation to your buddies. Here we go: you can exchange comments, pictures, plan on activities together, etc. You'd have the same control over your profile either from phone or from web browser. They have a nice Java applet for your page, so you can leave your buddies a voice message right from your computer and so on.

Abosulutely bang on! Any mobile phone service from the US sounds a bit primitive. Even the list of phone models mentioned is so limited....

What is it good for?

Call me old-fashioned, but I can exchange comments and plan activities with my friends by - GASP! - calling them!

-"Hey, man, fancy a beer?"
-"Sure!"

But hey, at least their FAQ mentions a "tickr". VC's of the world, unite!
