Mobile Monday Barcelona

Thank you everyone for participating in selecting our finalist to the Mobile Monday Global Peer Awards 2007. The MobileMonday Barcelona community has participated in the hundreds to select the local winner. The vote has been close…that is what happens when you have such a strong group of nominees.

Now that all the votes have been counted, we all need to congratulate our winner: MyStrands! We look forward to seeing you in the Global Peer Awards on Feb.12 and good luck. You have home field advantage!

For those curious here is a little note about our winner:

MyStrands develops behavior-based recommendation technologies that help people organize and discover digital media, through Internet connected devices (computers, mobile devices, etc).

partyStrands is an interactive service for party organizers, bars, clubs and DJs, that lets partygoers choose and influence the night’s music by sending an SMS or interacting through m.MyStrands.com. partygoers can also interact with each other by sending messages and pictures to pre-installed screens for everyone to see; and organize votes on songs, drinks, most popular guy/girl and more. Partygoers then choose the winner all from their cell phones.

Those looking for some fun can go to m.MyStrands.com and check out in real time what parties are taking place or what bars are open now, who is at the party, what music is playing and what people are saying. The day after, partyStrands helps you remember what happened last night; it automatically creates a web site (and mobile website) for each new venue, where users can go and see the text messages, photos, partygoers, and the playlist, from last night’s party.
