Before explaining what My Friends is, it is necessary to explain the Wireless Village Project... The Wireless Village Project is a joint-venture between certain companies (namely Motorola, Nokia and Sony Ericsson) with the goal of enhancing mobile telecommunications, and bringing real-time instant messaging to mobile telecommunications and portable computing devices. * +

Wireless Village partners provide a client (see below), whilst third-party companies and operators provide the service itself... More information on the Wireless Village Project can be found online at http://www.openmobilealliance.org/wirelessvillage. * +

The three main Wireless Village partners each have their own client, with the primary difference (to the user) being the user interface (ie. The way the client looks and operates). Each of the clients also have a different name... Motorola call their client the unimaginative name of IM, Nokia My Presence and Sony Ericsson My Friends. * +

create and maintain a list of buddies, their status and mood is also displayed, as per above; create, join and participate in public chatrooms (private chat rooms are also supported); send text-only (unformatted) instant messages to other users in near-real-time; connect to third-party instant messaging services. * +

Before you can use the Wireless Village client on your phone, you'll need to subscribe to a Wireless Village service... Although there are many Wireless Village services available online, Yamigo (http://www.yamigo.com) is by far the most popular and well-known. Yamigo is completely free, reliable and easy-to-use; * +

it also has a relatively large number of members and for these reasons, it will be used as the example in this thread. In some cases, your operator may offer a Wireless Village service... Usually, if this is the case, the settings will be pre-programmed into your handset, and a username/password will be assigned to you. * +
