Nokia’s Plan To Enter The Micro-Blog Business: Create Our Own And Put In All The Decks

Friend View is Nokia’s experimental mobile location and micro-blogging service that also works via standard web.
The application uses the built-in GPS, network triangulation, or manual updates to decide where you are.
Once logged-in, it pinpoints you as well as all your friends who are on the service.
Instead of Twitter’s ‘What Are You Doing’ question, Nokia asks ‘What’s Up’.
I’m guessing this will roll out in Japan first as a test.
With Nokia as the smart phone leader, and also having the power to move this app onto every deck they manufacture, will this become an immediate threat to mobile social networks like Loopt and ever-growing Twitter?
