WNM Live – meet the people around you without leaving your house, now for Windows Phone 8
WNM Live is an app similar to other social networks in that you can connect and keep up with your friends. But WNM takes it one step further by allowing you to make new friends with people who live nearby.
With over 650,000 active users worldwide, you could end up meeting your new best friend.
Previously available under the name Who’s Near Me, WNM Live was released for Windows Phone 8 a few days ago. By logging into the app with your Facebook account or creating a WMN account, you can browse profiles and strike up a conversation with other WNM users around you. You can send and receive text and picture IMs, engage in a live stream of conversations happening nearby and more without ever giving your phone number away.
You can make your public profile as anonymous or as detailed as you want, from your name being just that – Anonymous – or to listing your pets, favorite drinks, and interests. You can conduct searches by name, view who’s nearby, who’s online, and mark your favorite profiles. All of your conversations are listed in one place, which makes jumping back and forth easy as pie. WNM Live can be accessed from Windows Mobile, Windows Phone 7, Windows Phone 8, iPhone, Windows 8, Facebook, or your Desktop or Laptop computer's web browser by visiting www.wnmlive.com.
