Bringing your contacts to life

London – 12/09/2008: Mobyko.com, the world leader in mobile to web innovation, has today announced the launch of its new ‘Living address book,’ connecting your mobile address book to contacts on the web. Live feeds from Facebook and Twitter complemented with cutting edge Web 2.0 functionality takes address book management to the next level and sets the benchmark for future online address books.

The secure and private ‘Living address book’ is the most effective way of managing the important people in your life. Its global nature and portability ensures you have access to important contact data anywhere, anytime. You can edit contacts online, add multiple layers of contact data, including fixed line, mobile, web URLs, blogs, social networks and birthdays and it can easily be synced over the air with your mobile phone. This on/off device management makes it a perfect utility for the fast paced nature of modern life.

The ‘Living address book’ brings your contacts to life. You can populate it with your friends’ Facebook profile pictures and view their latest Facebook status updates and Twitter tweets, giving you a bite size view of your contacts’ daily lives. These third party integrations demonstrate Mobyko’s first step towards delivering a truly connected address book.

The really useful groups function offers a simple solution for organising your address book into customised groups. You simply drag and drop selected contacts into a group and label accordingly. Once created, a single text message can be sent to all group members directly from any web browser.

Julian Saunders, CEO, commented: “With this launch we are taking personal information management on the web and mobile phone to the next level. By providing a uniquely rich and rewarding mobile/web utility we are creating a truly ‘Living address book’ for all the people and contacts in your life. We are very pleased with the job our technical team have done and believe that users will be amazed by the truly desktop application-like quality of the online experience.”
