Limbo mobile social networks
Posted on February 10, 2009, under Mobile World News.
Limbo is one the world’s largest, fastest growing mobile social networks where people share the places they go and the things they do. In Limbo, members broadcast their location, locate bars, clubs or restaurants, and coordinate their friends with group text. All tools and services are free to members thanks to the support of interactive, highly targeted, location-based mobile advertisements. Limbo is backed by three of the world’s top venture capital funds: Azure Capital Partners (www.azurecap.com), Draper Fisher Jurvetson (www.dfj.com), and New Enterprises Associates (www.nea.com).
What is Limbo about?
Limbo is freeing social networkers from computer-dependence with a network that goes where you go - to a party, class, a restaurant or concert. Limbo lets you share the things you’re doing right from your phone, so friends can connect on the go and no one misses their chance to join in. Members can search for friends by what they’re doing, degree of friendship, or distance away, and can find points of interest nearby. Maps make it easy to see exactly where someone is, and activities make it possible to search for people doing what you want to do too. Limbo works for every mobile phone user, regardless of phone type or carrier.
Limbo member communities are springing up across the globe because Limbo works for all mobile phone users in nearly every country in the world. This makes Limbo the only location-aware social network where friends can connect across the globe and jetsetters can continue location sharing when their travel takes them abroad. Limbo is committed to pushing products beyond international barriers to create one borderless, location-aware, mobile social network.
Limbo follows latest trends of location-based or location-aware services. Users can broadcast their location, locate bars, clubs or restaurants, and coordinate their friends with group text. All the tools and services are free to members thanks to the support of what the company describes as “interactive, highly targeted, location-based mobile advertisements.”
