Posted by gasusan2005 on 08/2/07 in General
GoWare has announced the addition of several new capabilities to its DoMo HomePage personal mobile portal service. New features include Web-based portal management, a tool for loading saved portals, as well as DoMo HomePage SnapShot, a Short Message Service (SMS) extension developed in partnership with text messaging technology leader 4INFO that makes it possible to retrieve and share content from DoMo HomePage portals without a mobile browser.
DoMo HomePage SnapShot lets users quickly access and share content from their DoMo HomePage mobile portal through SMS/text message technology. To access Web or PC content, users send a keyword query to the 4INFO shortcode (44636) and receive the appropriate content in return. Sharing content with friends is just as straightforward. The user simply clicks a “send to a friend” link from within their DoMo HomePage portal and a link to the content is immediately sent to one or more friends within a text message. For example, users can send sports scores, news, contacts from Outlook, movie times and reviews. Anything from the Web or their PC can be mobilized through DoMo HomePage. SnapShot capitalizes on user acceptance and familiarity with text messaging to help transition them more effectively into the WAP environment.
“Through DoMo HomePage we’ve made it easy for mobile phone users to access all of their Web and PC content from a single screen on their mobile phones,” said Jason Thibeault, co-founder and CTO of GoWare. “Now we’re making it easier to get up and running and providing even greater flexibility by offering powerful SMS and Web management capabilities.”
The company also announced today new Web-based portal management capabilities and a saved portal feature for creating DoMo HomePage Portals instantly. Web-based portal functionality provides Web-management of a user’s portal and synchronization with the PC client (for access to PC-based applications). DoMo HomePage Web is yet another method offered by GoWare to help people manage a customized, personalized mobile Web experience.
Saved portals provide a convenient way to get stated with personalizing the mobile Web experience by automatically loading categories and content directly into DoMo HomePage. Users can also load a saved portal into a new category, thereby creating nested portals to further personalize DoMo HomePage. When a user creates a saved portal, they can name it, add keywords, add a description, and upload it to the DoMo HomePage Community Website for sharing with friends, family, and the entire DoMo HomePage userbase.
DoMo HomePage is available to the public as part of a free beta trial at DoMo Homepage
