Summary:
The landmark deal marks MySpace's largest-scale mobile partnership and gives Cingular's customers exclusive access to MySpace Mobile's rich tool set including the ability to edit MySpace profiles, view and add friends, post photos and blogs, send and receive MySpace messages, and much more -- all from the mobile phone.
"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," said Chris DeWolfe, CEO, MySpace.
"The photo upload feature of MySpace Mobile means Cingular customers will now have the ability to capture, record and share their world as it happens via their MySpace profile, creating a more enriching experience for our customers as well as their MySpace friends."
Available on select Cingular handsets, MySpace Mobile allows Cingular customers to select photos stored on their mobile device and upload them to their MySpace profile.
From their Cingular phones, they have the ability to send messages to their MySpace friends, read and reply to messages sent to them, as well as view and manage friend requests.
MySpace Mobile allows Cingular customers to perform basic friend searches giving users the opportunity to "click-to-add "friends into their network.
MySpace Mobile allows Cingular customers to post new blog entries and make comments to other users' blogs or MySpace profile pages.
The Friend list contains a text listing of the friends, which when selected would show the profile picture along with a link to that user's MySpace page and the ability to add the friend to your contact list for quick bookmarking.
MySpace Mobile Alerts have been available to Cingular customers since March 2006 and, to date, more than 75 million alerts have been received on Cingular handsets.
Cingular offers Parental Controls that enable parents to block their children's purchase of and/ or access to wireless content that may be inappropriate for young users.
MySpace, a unit of Fox Interactive Media Inc., is the premier lifestyle portal for connecting with friends, discovering popular culture, and making a positive impact on the world.
Cingular Wireless is the largest wireless carrier in the United States, serving 58.7 million customers.

Pity me, I don't have Cingular phones. I'll just have to be content with free myspace image hosting sites.
