GyPSii

Benefon, a Finnish company which recently changed its name to GeoSentric and bought the GyPSii application earlier this year, has just signed a deal with Nokia to put its GyPSii location-based social networking service on the N95 and 6110 handsets, regarding Reuters.

GyPSii service allows people to upload pictures, videos and sound clips recorded with their phone. At the same time, those uploaded multimedia contents are geo-positioned with the location where they were created. Besides, users can check where their friends, watch other geo-positioned contents or search other’s saved places.

We are sure that this kind of services mixing social networks and mobility will spread a lot for next months. What do you think?
