Nokia Messaging expanding with the Social Messaging beta

Social Messaging beta! This new client is the start of what will become the multi-community social networking client.

If you aren’t using the email or IM with Nokia Messaging, be sure to visit the email site and the E75 IM Beta to set up email and IM on your Nokia device.



Some of the highlights:

- Contextual homescreen widget – jump directly into posts to comment
- Post your thoughts and photos from the camera or gallery
- Share your current location in a post or in a message using Ovi Maps; view friends’ location
