Fluc is a new service I’ve just spotted that allows both mobile phone users and mobile web site publishers to make money. If you have a mobile phone, you can sign-up to receive ads and coupons relevant to your location and your interests, while making money on the way.
But it’s not all in opting-in for ads, there’s also a mobile social network built inside Fluc, meaning you’ll be able hang out with your friend, colleagues and/or associates from anywhere around the world. On the other hand, publishers can also earn money by promoting Fluc to their mobile web and/or wap site visitors.
In addition to mobile phone owners and site publishers, Fluc is also pitching advertisers and agencies. Basically, the service works like an affiliate network giving both interested parties something to work with…
Fluc is everything but a novel idea, yet somehow it feels properly executed. I guess, we’ll see Google and other big boys going the same direction. Or perhaps we may see someone acquiring Fluc? Just a thought…

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.
