Remember Tamagotchi? Well, Nokia thinks there’s still an untapped potential in virtual pets business, hence they’ve announced their own such service called Creebies. Coming in “early 2008,” the new game/service will give each player their own 3D Creebi to “care for, entertain, feed and even breed.” In addition, you will be able to customize your Creebi using the virtual cash until it takes on its own personality and appearance “based on the attention it receives.”
Nokia’s main goal remains to “connect people” and the same goes for Creebies — hence, your virtual baby will be able to interact with other Creebies via Bluetooth technology. And if your baby gets really beautiful you can show it off to other users. Or if things don’t get that smooth, there’s always the Adoption Center in the N-Gage Arena to get rid of the ugly bastard.

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.
