I’m not sure have you heard of Netlog, but apparently it’s very popular social network in Europe that has over 35 million registered users. And now they announced a native iPhone/iPod Touch app.
The application allows Netlog users to connect with new people, send and receive messages, upload photos, check and sign guestbooks and update their shouts. In addition, if a user happen to have a GPS-equipped iPhone 3G, he or she can share his/her precise geographical details with every status update.
Commenting on the announcement, Netlog’s CEO Lorenz Bogaert said: “Our aim was to combine the strength and popularity of the Netlog platform with the flexibility of the iPhone and iPod Touch. This takes us fully into the mobile age, and opens up the network to a wider range of on-the-go opportunities.”
The Netlog application is available in a number of languages (German, English, Spanish, Finnish, French, Italian, Dutch, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Swedish and (Simplified) Chinese) and can be downloaded free from the iTunes store.

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.
