Introduction: Nimbuzz, based in the Netherlands, provides a mobile social messenger application combining instant messaging, (geo) presence and VoIP. The free application enables users to connect with contacts across popular communities, including Skype, Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger, and social networks including Facebook and MySpace – all from a single application. Nimbuzz has positioned itself to become the largest global communications platform for seamless IPbased communication among mobile devices and social media platforms.
