ClicMobile's MoSoSo Demo

location based services


Vpod.tv has a good video interview with Alex Kummerman, the founder of ClicMobile, based in Paris and Geneva.

Here's a startup that has managed to combine location based services and social networking and actually demonstrate it working in the short video interview. No slideware here.

It's a cellphone application that works on all phones, says Kummerman. It enables users to find folks in their contacts list that are in the vicinity, as well as friends of friends. Since it's using the cell network for the positioning part, it works in a wider radius than some of the other similar mobilephone apps we've seen in this category. Nice interface too.

Biz model is revenue sharing of text messages and ads. Kummerman's blog gives this type of app a new category. It is called MoSoSo (Mobile Social Software), doncha know.
