 Nokia has purchased Cellity, a service to manage one's social networks and contacts from a single point.
"Nokia will acquire the Cellity team to strengthen its competencies in the area of social networking," the company said in a statement. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
But the acquisition also means that Cellity will be discontinuing its service, leaving its subscribers out in the cold.
We will begin ramping down our service as both Nokia and cellity
have agreed that our current services will not transfer to Nokia," Sarik Weber, Cellity's vice president of marketing and communications, said in a blog post.
"So what does this mean for you? Beginning September 30, 2009 our service will no longer be available
for use," Weber added. "As of today, unfortunately, no further top-ups will be
possible. We kindly ask you to use up the remainder of your existing
account balance before the end of September. Additionally, if you have
stored contacts with us in our social address book, please remember to
download them before the end of September (you will find all necessary
information within the cellity web app)."
