Vodafone has launched a new suite of internet services for the mobile and PC which gathers all of a user’s friends, communities, entertainment and personal favourites in one place.
According to Vodafone, the new service Vodafone 360 enables customers to integrate contacts, music, photos and mapping services and can share their music choices and even their physical location. It is automatically backed up and synchronised wirelessly, between the mobile and PC or Mac. All changes made either at home or when on the move are saved, keeping all the content up-to-date.
The address book, Vodafone People, automatically synchs all contacts from a customer’s phone, Facebook, Windows Live Messenger and Google Talk and is also expected to soon include Twitter, Hyves and studiVZ, the company said.
The company said that the new service also provides the ability to create different contact groups across social media networks, allowing customers to organise their contacts and manage how they share different information with different groups.
Pieter Knook, director of internet services at Vodafone Group, said: “Vodafone 360 is the first service of its kind to offer customers the benefits of a truly integrated mobile internet experience that gathers all their contacts and content, all around them, in one place.
“The beauty of Vodafone 360 is that all the services work together and they are easy to use. Vodafone 360 enables customers’ digital lives. Customers can stay in touch and share experiences through social networks, instant messaging, email, apps, maps, music and buying digital content on their mobile bill, with the personalised address book at its heart.”
