Text Amusements in Siberia
Andrey Deriabin for TheFeature.com reports on a Russian software company, which has launched a successful service called LoveInTown, enabling subscribers to click and report various data about his/her sex and love life. "The polls results - including the number of reported sex contacts per hour, day, and week - are instantly accessible from mobile phones and published at the service's website". Deriabin points out that "While MMS and 3G set the current agenda for mobile services providers, LoveInTown shows that there is still plenty of room for plain text-based entertainment. If the developers are able to generate original ideas and creatively apply them it may result in sheerly amusing content. However "silly" it may seem at the first glance". |
