Today, a main project of mine, Nuux is opening its doors officially for the public Beta! Nuux is a mobile social network dedicated to real-time social nightlife information. I would like to take the opportunity to let you know some details about this network and how it works. I will try not to make too much of a plug, but I am biased, since I’m the main person behind this, so reader beaware! ;)

Ok, so Nuux is about real-time nightlife information. You can checkout live where friends are partying, checkin to locations and events, message your friends for free, see what’s the hottest venues and generally get insider information about a particular town. To get my motivation behind this project maybe I can explain how it all began:

I was going out with some friends and ended up in a place where we had already paid some cover charge but it was not good at all. How would it be to have some network to check-out what other places and events are like, right now? An app to see where your friends are right now, how they like it, see pics, and recommendations from people just like me?

Virgin media has announced that it has launched a new application called ‘Get Social’. This is geared towards its mobile customers and includes social networking and e-mail applications.

Get Social allows users to perform instant updates to twitter, Facebook, Google talk, Yahoo! Messenger and virginmedia.com. This enables people to stay in touch and up to date with their friends and social media connections at all times.

The service is initially launching on just a few mobile platforms. These platforms include the Nokia 5800, Nokia 5530, Sony Ericsson W595 the Sony Ericsson K770i. More handsets are to follow in the new year.

The company has stated that mobile Internet use within its customer base has doubled since January of 2009. This is driven by market leading data tariffs and the increasingly high-end handset usage by their user base.

Virgin media feels that Get Social will help transform the mobile experience for their customers. By bringing their favorite social networks to their fingertips, Virgin feels that they are changing the way people will use their mobile phones. By providing simple to use applications and delivering market leading mobile data rates.

Google is on an acquisition spree to boost its web services and content offering, with a sharp focus on the mobile platform. Having recently snapped up AdMob, Teracent and On2 Technologies, it now has its eyes on local business reviews site Yelp, which has been increasingly active in the mobile world recently, since its service integrates logically with the location awareness of a handset. It has a mobile version of its web site and downloadable applications for Android, iPhone, BlackBerry and Palm webOS.

According to The New York Times, Google first held acquisition talks with Yelp several years ago, but these have now got more serious, and could lead to a deal before the holiday. Yelp is said to be asking for at least $500m, according to insiders.

Recently, Samsung released two new handsets, Samsung Corby Pro and Samsung Corby Plus in India under its Corby range of phones. Both handsets comes with QWERTY keyboards, which allows easy access to social networking sites such as Twitter, Orkut and Facebook.
