Special sections | Grid out into the worldSouth African mobile social network The Grid, originally launched in South Africa in 2008 by Vodacom, has now extended its reach from South Africa, Nigeria and Tanzania to the rest of the world.  Up to now, the two million existing members of The Grid were only able to chat and share content with other Grid members from their own country or they could chat to their Google Talk, MSN Messenger and Yahoo! Messenger contacts from The Grid.With the new release, members, irrespective of country or network operator, can become friends, chat to each other or share, rate and comment on photos and videos posted by the community. The international expansion will make it possible for anyone with a cellphone to sign up and join the social network at no subscription cost. Operations will be based in South Africa with the infrastructure hosted locally by Vodacom Business in its Midrand data centre. Access it through its mobi site at wap.thegrid.co.za.
