Google acquires Zingku

Google acquisition spree continues!!! Google has officially announced the acquisition of Zingku a mobile social networking and communication platform. I cudnt give it a try as they have temporarily closed the signups :( If you have an invite do share it to me.

Zingku's features include:

* Store & fetch mobile photos and txt reminders with alarms on your companion mobile web site.

* Share mobile photos and posts with friends and friends-of-friends with txt msg'ing, instant messenger, & web.

* Gather a big crowd & their friends with txt messaging, IM, and email, all at once!

* Take an instant poll among friends, all with txt messaging. "Hey what should we do ? 1. Movie 2. Dan's party"

* Your own mobile cards that people fetch by txt'ing a magic code. Make as many as you want & link them together.

* Fetch postings from any blog or any syndicated feed (RSS, Atom) to your mobile phone via txt message.

In July, Google took over GrandCentral Communications Inc., a web phone calling service which allows users to merge all their phone numbers and voice-mail boxes under one phone number.

Hey Google has planned to jump into mobile space tooo :) with these acquisitions and the launch of mobile phone.
