It works like this: When a mobile user is at a city center, say Delhi's Connaught Place, he will receive updates from the operator about his chosen services- Pubs in the area, Cinema listings and the like.</p> <p>Taking this a step ahead, the system can let the user know of friends within his vicinity, or maybe more interesting things based on his interests.</p> <p>Truly a great business model....to think. to implement?

Taking this a step ahead, the system can let the user know of friends within his vicinity, or maybe more interesting things based on his interests.

Truly a great business model….to think. to implement? Lets wait for a pioneer.
