^{WidSets introduces Jaiku widget} Lifestreams of data converge on your mobile phone

Nokia’s WidSets today announced the launch of a Jaiku widget that extends the experience of Jaiku (www.jaiku.com), the leading conversational microblogging community, to the mobile phones.

Enabling users to post thoughts, Jaikus, on what they're doing, how they're feeling, or where they're going right now, Jaiku community members can also converse in real-time by reacting to individual posts, share lifestream information like photos, personal blog entries at one location and establish a central presence for social networking. Combined together, these messages, presence sharing, and feeds create a holistic lifestream of activities.

"Our Jaiku widget brings the microblogging experience straight to the mobile phone, enabling community**, Director, Consumer Internet Services, Nokia Emerging Business Unit.

"Jaiku was made for mobile users and we're delighted that WidSets is enabling a living, growing conversation among people around the world through the use of the Jaiku widget," added Jyri Engeström, Jaiku co-founder.

WidSets, which has more than 1 million registered users, is a handset manufacturer-independent service that brings the best bits of the Internet, such as communities, news, blogs, reviews, and weather reports straight to the mobile phone. It uses mini-applications called widgets to deliver up to date Internet content to mobile phones and enables the user to create their own widgets.
