AOL is suddenly taking wireless very seriously indeed, launching a bunch of new mobile products.
From today, users will be able to access a redesigned and customisable AOL.com WAP portal offering new mobile versions of AOL Search, AOL Mail, AOL CityGuide, MapQuest, Moviefone and expanded content in the areas of shopping, music, news and entertainment.
A new downloadable app called AOL MyMobile is also launching. It gives users access to news headlines, sticky notes, pictures, weather and RSS feeds within the AOL mobile web experience. The service uses adaptation technology from Israeli-based InfoGin.
“We’ve listened to our users and are giving them more ways to tailor the AOL mobile experience just for them,” said Scott Falconer, exec VP of AOL Mobile. “These new products reflect our commitment to being the mobile leader in offering users more engaging, easier to use, customised mobile experiences on their most personal of devices, their cell phones.”
