uboot.com is one of the best-loved and largest communications platforms for young people in europe.
uboot defines itself through the feelings of its members: communication fun and consuption fun together. over 5.5 million users have registered for uboot.com, and the website has won many international awards, for example, from the online star awards
(http://www.onlinestar.de), and from the future uk internet awards
(http://www.uknetawards.co.uk/2001_awards.asp).
as with most success stories, uboot.com has triumphed through a simple idea: uboot was the first provider of the classic internet community combined with a unified messaging system - and that has been presented and refined to the communication requirements of the "
mobile generation".
uboot offers users not only a multitude of possibilites to present oneself online, using personal
nickpages (for example
http://obatala.uboot.com/), but also many ways to communicate with others, for example
email,
guestbook entries, mobile using
sms,
mms and
i-mode.
uboot is the first community, that also works on the move: that means not only within the web, or from web to mobile; but also mobile to web, or mobile to mobile. uboot offers the platform, the users deliver and control the content.
