Bobba Bar - a virtual bar on-the-go

Bobba Bar is a virtual bar for the mobile, where you can meet and make friends. Bobba Bar’s exciting bars, cafés and clubs provide a fun environment for over 17 year-old mobile phone owners to make friends and date people from all over the world.

Bobba Bar’s simple user interface makes talking to other bar guests incredibly easy; users simply tap in text, which appears as speech bubbles on other users’ phones. Bobba Bar users can create their avatars from a large amount of designs for the face, body, hairstyle, skin color and clothing; altogether there are over a billion combinations to choose from. Each avatar is easily customized with life-like outfits or more unusual and quirky accessories.

The Bobba Bar virtual environment is navigated with simple gestures like tapping, panning and pinching on the iPhone. Bar guests can add friends to their friend list, invite friends by using SMS, email and Twitter, and send messages to each other. Visitors can also get free virtual drinks by chatting to the virtual bartenders.

The service - a first of its kind - is available as a free download at iTunes App Store for the iPhone and iPod touch and at Nokia’s OVI store for Nokia smart phones and at GetJar and www.bobba.com for other S60 devices.
