Moblabber Philippines launched

Here’s a new local networking service which ties both web interaction and mobile connection – Moblabber.

Basically, the service allows you to interact among peers and people with the same interests via the web or your cellphone. Think YahooGroups or GoogleGroups for the cellphone. The only difference is that you can manage everything on either the website of your mobile phone. The web is free but any outgoing messages you send via your phone will be charged Php2.50. Registration is confirmed/verified via your inputted mobile number. You can call this Twitter on steroids although blog/step integration is still in the drawing board.

The highlights of the service allows you to send a text message to your group via the web or via your cellphone, so you’re only charged for one message. However, those who will receive the messages via their phone will carry the charges (again at Php2.50) instead.

Disclosure: Moblabber PH was developed by the same company (FeedText) (which granted license to Axis Global) that sponsored the last Blog Parteeh and BBN partner Sasha also works for them.

    Drew, now that’s not just a typo! I think I’m still drunk from the SEO Philippines Party.

    Yeah, the economics of the service isn’t equitable amongst the members of the community, and that’s a huge challenge for non-critical groups to adapt this service.

    Moballer — Did you mean Moblabber?

    Anyway, it is good that you pay only once to send to multiple contacts, however, I dunno if it’s such a good idea if your recipients are charged for something they didn’t ask for. But of course that’s the worst case scenario. I hope everyone who joins do realize firsthand what they’re getting into.
