Sony Mylo

mylo.gifSony have announced that they are going to release a wireless instant messaging system called the Mylo which stands for “My Life Online”.

I’ve had MSN messenger on my Smarts Phones for quite a while now but I rarely use it as it is quite inconvenient signing on and off all the time but it would be nice to be able to use it more easily. I guess with the mobile generation where we want to be able to talk to people whenever we like and wherever we are, this sort of thing could take off. I know a lot of people who are permanently on MSN messenger and I guess this means they’ll be on it more.

Companies like IBM use IM for administering where people are when and it is a great tool. They have 300 000 people in the company so it's great for contacting people when they are in the office.

At the moment, the Mylo is going to support Yahoo Messenger and Google Messenger. But Yahoo and Microsoft are going to join forces for their IM software so I guess that means that MSN Messenger might work too (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/5176032.stm).

The Mylo is only going to be available in the USA at the moment but I’m sure the UK wont be too far behind, especially with new devices like the Microsoft Zune coming out very soon.
