MySpace on the move
MySpace users will be able to post pictures, add musings, exchange messages and perform other tasks they routinely tend to on home computers, according to the terms of the arrangement.
The service will cost $2.99 monthly plus standard data transmission fees, according to MySpace.
"Not only are we excited about the ability for customers to stay connected to their MySpace community while they’re on the go, we think this will open up a new world of interaction and content for them to share via MySpace," said Cingular Wireless marketing officer Marc Lefar.
MySpace users will be able to immediately upload pictures taken with their camera telephones to "capture, record and share their world as it happens", Lefar added.
The service will also enable Cingular customers to view the MySpace pages of friends.
"MySpace.com has a passionate community of users, many of whom use our site as their primary means of staying in touch with family and friends," MySpace chief executive Chris DeWolfe said in a release.
"We are thrilled to team with Cingular to enable their mobile users to experience the richest MySpace Mobile offering to date."
