Nokia Location Based Chat…
Those boys and girls have been busy at Nokia Betalabs, and have released a new chat toy to play with.
“Nokia Chat is a Presence and IM client that integrates to your Contacts Application. It can do automated presence based on your location too. Way it works is that you just save landmarks you want to broadcast and boom – in no time you’ll be saying things without typing anything. Do visit our web page to find out more details.”
Of course this requires a nokia account to set up and some sort of strange double handling to get my gtalk users on as well. So not sure just how usable it will be. But if all your friends are on Nokia’s it might just work. But then it is a beta app as well, and most of the feedback seems to say that the app is good, but that the addition of different users is a pain.
I think it might be time to secure that Nokia Account user name anyway just so you have the heads up for some of the things that are coming.
