One company based in Berlin has just gone live with its mobile social network. More than 3,000 young Germans have signed up to the aka-aki service in just over a month. Users of the service download an application on to their mobile phones free. The software uses Bluetooth, and when another member's phone comes within range, it pings. The user can then check who it is and choose to access that person's profile, message them and, if they want, go over and have a chat. In just over an hour on a sunny day in the centre of Berlin I had more than a dozen “encounters” with aka-aki members. Everyone was buzzing with the possibilities of the network and eager to chat. Stefanie Hoffman, 30, one of aka-aki's founders, said that although she met her boyfriend through aka-aki it was not just about dating. “The business applications are real,” she said. “I went to a conference the other day - one girl and 80 guys - and normally I would feel very reluctant to go up to someone to talk. It can be very difficult if you are a woman in those circumstances. But my phone told me there were half a dozen aka-aki members there and so I could introduce myself.”
