Qeep.net - Mobile Social Network

Qeep is an entirely mobile social network that allows users to get in touch with old friends, meet new friends, upload photos and communicate on the go. The most unique feature of Qeep is that it allows users to save money by using less-expensive means of data transfer. Instead of using the MMS and SMS channels for the sending of messages and uploading of photos, Queep uses your web browser for the transmission of data. This means that instead of paying the price of a costly SMS test message, you only pay the price of the data transfer, making Qeep one of the most cost effective mobile social networking communities out there. To get started, you will need to download the Qeep software and register.

“Qeep is social networking software for your mobile phone! You can download our mobile application free of charge. Already the world’s leading mobile community, qeep means never being bored no matter where you are.”

Firstly, they already have a substantial user-base, making the potential for viral growth even more likely. Secondly, those without “all-you-can-eat” SMS packages will like being able to communicate at a lower cost when they are on the go.

The site appears to be doing well in Germany but can it succeed on the other side of the Atlantic as well? Is the ability to send messages over the phone’s web browser and thereby save money going to provide enough of an incentive for people to join up or will those wanting to join a mobile community pay out the approximately 5 bucks for an all you can eat text bundle?
