I just came across this press release on Social Networking Watch - an excellent online resource for the latest and greatest in social networking news.
Just last week, Technorella was a bit overwhelmed with Gypsii's ability to take Facebook mobile, and was shocked to learn about ZuGiDoMe's laser technology. These new technologies seemed to be the "new wave" of social networking, unlikely to go main-stream anytime soon.
But the announcement that Xanga is going mobile in Hong Kong - in partnership with HK's largest mobile provider - makes me think that mobile social networking is already here - and rapidly becoming main-stream.
I guess Technorella shouldn't be surprised - but the more I think about it, the rise of mobile social networking is going to change the face of social interactions exponentially. The boundaries between online relationships and "real" relationships are going to continue to blur.
