KT Corp., the country’s No. 2 mobile carrier, said Monday it released a social networking hub service for its feature phone users, incorporating four different networking sites ― Twitter, Facebook, Cyworld and MeToday.
By registering their identifications of the SNS websites on the new site, users can upload and check their postings and photos simultaneously with their mobile phones.
The local telecom also said it is currently in the process of developing a mobile application involving the service for its smartphone users.
Last week, Yahoo! Korea also made a similar announcement, claiming its renovated homepage would offer a “one-stop networking service” for the portal users.
It also said the company’s renovated homepage would provide easy access to other websites, meaning a single log-in would be enough to get the desired service.
“Different strong points exist for the country’s portals and the development of a win-win strategy will be possible when they are shared by the service providers,” Kim Dae-sun, general manager of the Korean branch, told reporters at the press conference.
SK Communications, the operator of the popular Korean networking site Cyworld and online messenger Nate On, is also busily moving to establish its own social networking hub and Microsoft is soon planning to launch an upgraded version of its own social hub Windows Live.
