- DEMO Says
- In virtually every conversation involving mobile technology, the foremost question is, “Is it carrier agnostic?” The role of the carrier in mobile applications and content has traditionally been in the vein of stumbling block/obstacle/major hurdle. Movial’s Social Communicator is an impressive social media and content app for the mobile platform, to be sure. But more significantly, the company has found a way to create new revenue for the carrier while also bringing a rich experience to the user. It’s an encouraging sign for those of us itching to carry our social graph in our pocket.
