| Details. Network rivals O2 and 3 are going to merge their two user-generated content communities into a single collective. The new community, to be named Eyevibe, will see O2's LookatMe and 3's SeeMeTV video services bundled together collecting over 60,000 videos.
The service enables subscribers throughout the UK to submit video clips on any subject to an online gallery, which can be viewed by other users on their mobile handset. Each time a clip is downloaded, the original content contributor receives a payment of 3p.
Since the launch of SeeMeTV and LookAtMe!, users have paid for more than 32 million video downloads earning a combined total of over £800,000 for users who have submitted more than 60,000 clips.
Dave Springall, chief technology officer of Yospace, said: “We have been working hard to not only combine these two communities, but also develop community features that will thrive under this operator-supported open access model. Our plan for 2008 is to make EyeVibe the biggest and brightest mobile community in the UK”.
John Penberthy-Smith, marketing director at 3, said: “3 was the first to market with SeeMeTV in October 2005. Already hugely popular, we knew everyone else would love it too so we have built a community which everyone can be part of. EyeVibe is the new cross-network user-generated service which we believe is the way forward for social networking”.
Grahame Riddell, head of content at O2 UK, added: “LookAtMe! has provided a platform for thousands of O2 customers to reach an audience with their quality mobile clips. EyeVibe will dramatically increase this audience, providing a massive boost to user-generated content on mobile in the UK”.

| Details. Long-serving dealer chief Ian Driver to leave O2 at end of November
O2 UK general manager of channel support Ian Driver (pictured) has quit after almost eight years with the network.
Driver leaves O2 at the end of November.
O2 UK sales director Mark Stansfeld said: “Ian has played an enormous role both in the success of our business to date and in helping build the support function foundations in the Sales Directorate. I want to give Ian my warmest personal thanks for all his contributions and wish him every success in the future”.
Driver’s departure follows the rationalization of O2’s indirect sales team under indirect chief David Plumb earlier this year, with former dealer chief Iain MacIntyre moved aside in June as Maggie Kennedy took charge of dealer, as well as distributor, sales.

| Details. Vodafone and Dextra take the pain after latest cashback collapse
Around 46,000 customers have been affected by the collapse on November 14 of Mobile Media Systems and Mobile Afilliates, trading as online mobile retail brands The Phone Box, Coolnewmobile and Phones2yourdoor.
Mobile News understands 58 per cent of those affected were Vodafone customers, 90 per cent of whom were connected through Dextra Solutions. The estimated debt to customers in unpaid cashback is between £4 million and £10 million.
The companies went under after the number of cashback redemptions from customers wildly overshot their projected figure. The business model was predicated on a 40 per cent redemption rate. As it went into administration, 70 per cent of customers were claiming cashback from the business.
Vodafone is working with Dextra to assess affected customers on a case-by-case basis, but said the cashback deals were between customers and the companies. |
