In 2007 over 82 million people worldwide used mobile devices to participate in a social network and according to predictions by eMarketer, that number is expected to steadily increase to 800 million people by 2012.

Additionally, it "creates a unique context in which to promote their goods and services" and is a platform for sharing those messages among friends and colleagues.
