DISQUS

VentureBeat: Loopt, the mobile social network, available on Sprint

    I think loopt and other services like it represent only the start of the development of brand benefits for mobile carriers far beyond the social mapping functionality...someday creating communities out of carrier networks that provide recommendations, referrals, and other services. I'm a little surprised that Sprint didn't even bother to mention it, although the news wasn't suited to YouTube sharing and the other useless endeavors that pass for viral branding these days. I've written about this in some detail on my blog, DIM BULB, at http://dimbulb.typepad.com,if you'd like to check it out. Thanks!
