Voice social networking without Internet?

Hear at last-the social networking through sound of your voice. Use your mobile phone to network with your friends and online business contacts.

This new voice social networking is launched by Indiatimes, the popular daily newspaper in India. This is the first ever such venture and I am happy that India has taken the full credit.

But what about the expenses? Users should be ready bear them. Mobile phone service providers must be salivating at the potential income.

This also paves way for mobile podcasting (voice blog).

How it works?
The users just need to call 58888199 and create their voice channel, through which they can connect to millions of other users, with similar interests.

Does it mean there is no need of traditional Internet connection to use social networks?

Read the statement from Rishi Khiani,CEO, Times Internet Limited(Indiatimes) on Hi Buddy:
“This will allow users to connect to one another in real-time through social interactions on voice, which is a more personal medium".

Naturally, he feels that Hibuddy should be the 'next big thing' in social networking & voice blogging in India.
