There’s no secret Google wants to rule our mobile lives, hence they keep pumping their mobile offering with new apps and services. Lately we’ve spotted they’ve bought mobile social networking start-up Zingku. Those not familiar should know Zingku “integrates” a mobile phone with a personalised website so that users can easily move (zing) things back and forth between the web and their mobile phones, as well as connect with friends and, optionally, friends of their friends. In addition, Zingku allows companies to create “mobile flyers” and then publish or email a “zing-code” to potential customers, who can then opt to pull the flyer on to their phone and/or forward it to their friends…
So, will we see Google launching its mobile social network? It’s hard to say at this stage, but slowly they’re getting all the pieces together.
