TELEGRAPH.CO.UK -- June 13 -- Sniff (the Social Network Integrated Friend Finder) has been very
popular in Scandinavia, with around 100,000 users registering in the
past six months alone, and it's now available in the UK. It's a new
application that can be installed on mobile phones and
social networks, providing users with a
detailed map of their friends' whereabouts at any given moment. Useful Networks, the American company
behind Sniff, says the purpose of the application is to put an end to
those slightly desperate "Where r u?" texts that it claims account for
a large chunk of the messages we send. FULL ARTICLE @ TELEGRAPH.CO.UK
