• MySpace completes launch offering, joining Facebook, Pikeo, Bebo, Flirtomatic and others
• New service allows customers to stay connected to all their online communities through a single, easy to use, mobile interface
  

Today Orange announced that Europe’s leading social network sites will be brought together within Orange World.  The new service combines access to the sites’ popular functions into a single destination. The news follows the completion of partnership agreements with MySpace, Facebook  and Bebo  whose members will be able to view their profile updates – emails, comments from friends, recently uploaded pictures - alongside others from Skyrock , Pikeo, Flirtomatic , DailyMotion  and  Meetic .

The service, which lets users keep in touch with their friends wherever they are, has launched in France and will follow soon in the UK, Switzerland, Spain and Portugal.  It works by displaying the most popular functions of multiple social networks side by side these so that they can be accessed far more simply with one click.  Consumers will now be able to receive and send messages, upload photos and check status updates without having to browse individual URLs or log into separate sites.  Orange plans to evolve the service from Orange World to an embedded application, accessible from the home screen of Orange Signature phones. The ultimate goal is to bring these communities together across all three screens: mobile, PC and TV.
