Social networking site Student.com goes mobile

Social networking site Student.com has signed a deal with DMD Holdings to bring their services to the mobile platform. According to the company's site, it has 740,000 users and is geared toward the 13- to 24-year-old user base. The site's mobile launch seems to cover the mobile content gambit. Student Mobile will offer ringtones, graphics, video, lifestyle texts and alerts and allow users to "carry their online social networking experience into the mobile space with mobile photo and video blogging, mobile podcasting, mobile messaging and mobile chat." The site is rather amateurish looking in comparison to MySpace and the 22-year-old CEO even uses MySpace to market Student.com. It's a solid domain name though, and it will be interesting if the site will get acquired in the wake of the News Corp. MySpace acquisition.
