Yahoo launched its new mobile platform service,”OneConnect” on Tuesday. This new mobile platform service will integrate multiple functions at one place including email, text messaging, instant messaging, and social networking.
“One Connect” is included in the Yahoo’s roll out plans as a part of “Yahoo Go 3.0” and new “Yahoo Home Page”. “Yahoo Go 3.0” is a unique offer from this company having an ‘all-in-one’ application facility. Yahoo is planning to make this unique facility available to its users and mobile phone users sometime during the second quarter of this year.”One Connect” was on display at the ‘Mobile World Congress’ in Barcelona this week.
An immensely useful feature of “One Connect” is its ‘socially connected address book’. This facilitates the users to transmit, transfer, and share various activities through the social networks, professional networks, and other community networks with the help of their own address books. This facility will keep them on top in case any person who is in their address book makes any change in their profiles or updates the status.
Along with this service, integrated messaging facility will also be offered by Yahoo. Any mobile phone user who is using the messaging services provided by any company will be capable of using the Yahoo’s application program interfaces in order to connect to the “OneConnect” messaging feature. Yahoo intends to provide complete freedom to its users.
The company will provide an open communication platform for this objective. Users will be able to send and receive emails, text messages, and instant messages and of course can access to the social and all other networks with the use of just one application.
Yahoo’s new application includes personal as well as service oriented messaging services. The company is currently under negotiations with the ‘DataViz’, the company providing specialized mobile access services to Microsoft Exchange email accounts and Microsoft Office documents. Yahoo and DataViz together will be developing widget versions of DataViz’s “RoadSynch” and “Documents To Go” applications.
“OneConnect” will also be featuring an ability to set up specific messaging shortcuts. These shortcuts will be helpful in getting in touch with people in a quick and easy way. It will also have an exclusive ‘social contact card’ for keeping up to date information of any contact. Location sensing capability of this facility will be helpful in locating, chatting, and sharing of information with other ‘OneConnect” service users.
Yahoo intends to extend the “OneConnect” support to millions of mobile phone devices and mobile phone browser users across the world in near future.
