Your Own Mobile Community at Sonopia.com
September 10th, 2007 MobileFreak
Ever wanted to start your own community of mobile phone users, and earn money in the process?
That’s the idea behind Sonopia. To better explain what can be done with this service, here’s an excerpt from their about page:
Sonopia’s mission is to provide every organization, group or club with the opportunity to create branded mobile service and build a unique mobile and web community of supporters and members.
Leading brands, charities, environmental organizations and entertainment groups are working with Sonopia to create their branded mobile phone services. These services are marketed with Sonopia’s help to an increasingly discerning consumer, who demands relevant services, the right price and great customer service. We call each of these mobile services a “Sonopia” and expect there to be thousands of Sonopias within a few years.
With Sonopia, anyone can create and start marketing a mobile service in 15 minutes or less.
From an end user’s perspective, I have to say the user interface seems a bit clunky. I found it confusing to create multiple communities and then try to navigate between them. Hopefully that will be improved in future updates.
While Sonopia sounds interesting (particularly if any charities have success with it), I simply cannot see the volume of users getting to the point where it has enough staying power to be successful. Maybe they can prove me wrong — we shall see.
