Buongiorno (Italy, MTA STAR: BNG), the global leader in mobile entertainment, is pleased to announce the launch of a new iPhone application based on peoplesound, Buongiorno's own-brand social networking service developed specifically for the mobile phone. The peoplesound application, designed and developed by Buongiorno in Los Gatos, California, is the first social network to concentrate on true relationships between real friends. At any one time, a user's 'friends list' is limited to 20 friends only, revolutionising social networking by creating a more personal network for a more personal device - the mobile phone. peoplesound is now available free of charge at the Apple Store for use on all 3G and 2G iPhone and iPod Touch devices, making the browsing experience unique and exciting.

Buongiorno has announced the official launch of peoplesound, it’s new mobile social network. Known as “blinko” when it was in beta, Buongiorno claims that the new network is the “evolutionary” link from computer-centric to mobile-centric social networking.

Buongiorno is turning the boat around. The 12-year-old Italian digital content provider, which began as an email newsletter, is “making a huge play” in the mobile social network space, or as Buongiorno’s head of innovation Marcus Thornley told mocoNews.net, “making the move to mobile 2.0”.

The company has already laid some of the groundwork. In June 2007, it launched its mobile-only social network Bing, aimed at 16-to-18-year-olds, and now available in a mix of 11 European and developing countries. As of March, members were exchanging over 20 million messages a week, with Bing amassing over 1.2 million logons.
