I’m playing with the Nokia’s new service Nokia Fried View as I type this. I downloaded the software on my phone this morning and been using it through out the day.

In short the service wants to be a location aware microbloggin service.

Nokia, the Finnish mobile phone giant, has announced to shed 600 jobs.

Just recently Nokia, the Finnish born mobile phone manufacturer, put up a competition to find the most innovative mobile apps. We believe this might be part of a bigger initiative to reach out to startups in the wake of what App Store has done for Apple.

Highlights from Mindtrek conference - day3:

Panel: The social media side of mainstream
Timo Vuorensola & Atte Joutsen (Star Wreck Studios Ltd.), Jouni Kantonen (Red Tail Media), Antti Seppänen (Intervisio), Damien Marchi (Fremantle).

The panel was running around new media & mainstream media. It was interesting but I would have rather pushed the conversation a bit further, trying to brake the line of common topics about which we daily discuss online.
