GyPSii the leading geo-location and social networking service provider for mobile phones and Internet devices, has made a series of significant enhancements to its feature set.

“We are dedicated to continually developing and improving the GyPSii service to provide all users, whatever country they’re in or handset they’re on, with the best mobile geo-social networking experience in the world” said Dan Harple, GyPSii CEO. “The new GyPSii features further extend its position as the mobile lifestyle application that’s turning the mobile phone into a personal digital life recorder.”  Adding to this comment, he stated, “Only this week a GyPSii member, living in China, recorded in real-time the tragic earthquake in Chengdu and shared it with the whole GyPSii community.  This exemplifies GyPSii’s ability to share live events, anywhere, anytime, with the GyPSii community.” This weeks Chengdu GyPSii posting can be viewed at Place on News & Alerts on www.gypsii.com.
