To expand the range of its multimedia offerings and to strengthen its appealing to the Middle East based customers, Nokia has partnered with an Arabic video-sharing site, so called YouTube of the Middle East, Ikbis. The tie-up with Ikbis will allow NSeries users to produce videos from their mobile phones and then directly share and distribute the videos on the Ikbis.com website. Something that Nokia already did with Vox and Flickr. (via: RingNokia, TMCnet)

About The Author
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.
