A Look at Nokia Friend View

Nokia Betalabs has introduced Nokia Friend View which is a location and micro-blogging service that helps you stay in touch with your close friends. It let’s you share where you are and how you feel from home, work, or on the go. With Friend View it is easy to meet up at only a moment’s notice.

Last month a quick demo video of the service was presented by Brenda Castro and it quickly became interesting to me how Nokia is pushing forward on social connectivity.

The introduction video was given by buddy Stefan Constantinescu of Nokia Corporate Strategy (OMG Congrats!!!!!)

Now to be honest, I'm just in the beginning phase of playing around with it, but our Symbian Guru has given his update on the new service including the set-up.

The video cracks me up, as Stefan looks stoned. I am sure it is just the lights and make up, but it is funny.

As for FriendView, I like it better than Brightkite, it is more user-friendly and I am actually using it every day or so when I remember to log in on my mobile.

I just hope that there will be more integration with services like Twitter or Jaiku, but so far I'm loving it!
