Loopt to Deliver Social Mapping Service to Verizon Customers

Posted on: Monday, 31 March 2008, 15:00 CDT

Verizon Wireless and Loopt, a provider of social-mapping service, have announced that Loopt will be available next month on select Verizon Wireless phones.

With Loopt, Verizon Wireless customers can leverage their phones's location-based services capabilities to share location information, status messages and geo-tagged photos with their community of friends.

Loopt users can view where friends in their private network are located via a map displayed on their mobile phones and connect and share their locations with anyone in their address books or AIM buddy lists.

Ryan Hughes, vice president of digital media programming for Verizon, said: "Loopt offers Verizon Wireless customers a fun, unique and powerful way to connect with friends and share information. Loopt enhances the mobile experience by letting friends stay in touch with and informed of their friends' lives - wherever they go."
