Yahoo! Inc. and Symbian Limited today announced that Yahoo! has joined the Symbian Platinum Program to support the growing market for Symbian OSâ„¢ phones and applications.
Last month Yahoo! announced its new Yahoo! Go Mobile service which will soon launch in North America, Europe and Asia. This new service provides Symbian OS phone users with access to their favorite Internet content and services. New Yahoo service integrates the power of the Internet into consumers’ mobile phone experiences and combines real-time connectivity with access to their community, information and content services from across the web.
This new service will be the first time Yahoo! has brought a comprehensive set of the company’s industry-leading products and full access to services across the Web into a single application for mobile phones. From their Symbian OS mobiles, users can access Yahoo! services including Mail, Address Book, Messenger, Search, Photos News, Sports, Finance and Games.

Dusan Belic
Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
