Three weeks passed since our latest release, which was also in the mobile field. I am reffering to our mobile widget for the Vodafone App Star competition in which by the way you can still vote for us, as we are one of the contest finalists 
Today’s release is about our mobile interface which let you interact with all your favorite social networks through your iPhone, Nexus One or any other web enabled mobile interface you are using to browse the web. You can see for yourself in our mobile version.
As always, let us know if you experience any problem or if there is something we can do to make your mobile experience better.
As you may know – or guessed – our team consists mostly of developers, which is cool as for the features that we can deploy, but it is really bad as for the presentation aspect of our work. So in the beginning of this year we hired one of the most talented web designers in Greece, Yiannis Konstantakopoulos and the first result is our new homepage. Later Yiannis will help us with the UI of our service and especially the new mobile client that we are developing, so stay in touch for more
In the meanwhile please take a minute and tell us how do you like our new homepage.
Yesterday LinkedIn announced that they are opening their platform for business. Today we have added integration with their service. That means that you can now use Social Whale to update your status in LinkedIn (along with twitter, facebook, myspace and identica) plus you will be able to read status updates from your friends. The last one is a feature that is available only to a few alpha testers but it will roll out to all our users very soon.
To use the new feature just go to the “Settings” from the bottom menu and connect your account to a linkedin profile.
We are very excited to announce the alpha testing release for the Social Whale service. During this testing period we will allow only a limited amount of users to use the service so if you want to participate just follow @SocialWhale at twitter, and we will send you an invitation the soonest possible.
This release aims to help us find and fix as many bugs as possible, and see how the application scales in production state. Still there are many features that are not implemented, but the service is full functional. If you are participating in this testing release please post any feedback to the social whale group, or send a dm to @SocialWhale.

In the social web, everything is about status updates. It is very cool how easily people from all around the world can share news or anything that matters using social media services, but yet the real time web becomes a serious time waster for the social media fans out there as it is so hard to keep up with so many services in real time.
