| Groups of like minded people can now share content on mobile and online thanks to hubbing a new phenomenon where by users can set up groups called hubs devoted to any topic from their mobile phones and PCs. They can then invite friends and friends of friends to their hubs and begin sharing and messaging instantly adding camera phone photos, digital camera photos and as much text as they want.
In addition to sharing their own content, members can easily drag and drop RSS feeds to a hub and receive content updates containing images and text on their mobile phones and PCs. Users can also invite friends to that hub and chat about the news feed.
Whether its groups of friends spontaneously capturing and sharing experiences at a concert or a night out; fantasy sports league members getting the latest scores in a joint hub and trash talking with each other; gamers exchanging tips, tricks and gossip with other gamers as they make their way through the newest release; or family members sharing and saving special moments the hubs enables people to stay connected instantly to whatever is important to them.
The whole thing is possible thanks to the launch by mobile-online convergence specialist netomat, which has developed the hub idea to allow users with a phone or a PC to get text, photos, news and blog feeds instantly, share content and RSS feeds in private groups or public blogs and socialise with friends and meet new people, says the company blurb.
Weve seen an explosion of communication technologies such as camera phones, text and picture messaging, blogging, RSS feeds and social networks, says Alan Gershenfeld, CEO of netomat. We created a single service that integrates these powerful yet fragmented technologies, while offering an intuitive consumer experience.
The free service allows consumers to create a myriad of hubs on both their phones and their PCs and provides 50 MB of free storage for personal images. Members will soon be able to incorporate other digital content, such as audio and video.
"We view this as a collaborative effort and our users' feedback is crucial to our success," said Joe Carsanaro, president of netomat. "Our goal is to provide the most open, effective and easy-to-use communication service for friends, family and colleagues to stay connected."
netomat hubs seamlessly integrate multiple essential services for real-time group communication. This includes picture and text messaging with presence, trusted social networking, RSS syndication, digital photo storage and update alerts as richly on mobile phones as on PCs.
