Go Places restaurant guide goes mobile

5 May 2009

Mobile-XL, a mobile technology company, today, 5 May 2009, announced that it has reached an agreement with Go Places, the premier East African travel guide, to make dining information available to mobile audiences. XLBrowser users can now search for restaurants by name, cuisine or location and query additional information such as hours or contact information.

Commenting on the partnership, Mansoor Jiwani, from Go Places said, "Providing information about restaurants to mobile phone users furthers our commitment to increasing awareness of the many wonderful eating venues within the East African region. The XLBrowser provides consumers with a new way to quickly and easily find great places to eat from anywhere at anytime."

"The XLBrowser's simplicity and affordability, coupled with Go Places' definitive restaurant directory, allows us to become a comprehensive source for useful dining information. Together we have taken a large step toward connecting people to the world around them," according to Suzanna Conrad, VP of content acquisition for Mobile-XL.

The XLBrowser is a mobile phone application that uses SMS to provide instant access to global and local information to anyone, anywhere, using almost any mobile phone. The browser's intuitive interface allows a user to easily select and instantly receive up-to-the-minute information, news, sports, finance, entertainment, games, music and much more - all with minimal effort and instant results. The browser aims to open up a world of information, particularly valuable for users in areas with limited, unreliable, or expensive internet or WAP technologies.
