Santa Clara, CA - July 6, 2006 – Wirkle, Inc. today announced the alpha version of Link’n’Surf, the world’s first “socially aware” internet solution for your mobile phone. Available for free download at http://www.linknsurf.com, it offers a way to easily access your favorite web content and share it with anyone across multiple platforms on the go.
“By simply launching the application the users can have their favorite blogs, MySpace profile comments, Flickr photos, RSS/Atom feeds and content from hundreds of other websites automatically delivered to their phones in a matter of seconds.” said company’s CTO Sunil Goyal. “The phone interface is elegant and extremely simple to use. It is based on Wirkle’s patent-pending markup language, WAML that was devised to make web access simpler on the phones.”
Link’n’Surf brings together the world of social networking and mobile internet by allowing users to access their favorite stuff from the web, share it amongst friends and discover new things from their circle of friends. For instance, as someone interested in healthcare you may share interesting web sources with friends, look at what other people are reading and share articles like “Bush says no to stem cell research” with a user-created ‘Healthcare’ community where everyone can voice their opinions on it.
Since the launch of a limited pre-alpha release a few weeks back, thousands of users have downloaded Link’n’Surf on their phones. Users have created communities for discussing movies, the FIFA world cup, countries and cultures and myriad other things. MySpace bands have created their own profiles on LinknSurf and are trying to talk about their music on the phones. Several users have subscribed to blogs and each day the LinknSurf community discovers new blogs, new photos and new communities.
