Blyk: A FREE mobile service powered by advertising

Now this is interesting. Blyk, a soon-to-launched mobile service in the UK, will be provided free to subscribers and be completely funded by advertising.

It's been more than a year since MITV and Timedotcom were awarded 3G licenses and to date both have nothing or at least very little to show the Malaysian public.

This interesting idea of an advertising-funded mobile service is nothing if not revolutionary. Just like free newspapers, it might take time for people to accept it but if both the founder of EasyJet and a former Nokia president think it's a viable business for them, then surely it must be worth investigating.
