MTV FunkySexyCool comes to German-speaking Europe

CAUTION

(by Louise Wells) The successful Australian social networking phenomena FunkySexyCool has been launched in Austria, Germany and Switzerland this week, but with a twist in the shape of MTV.

The service is distributed by Mobile Streams by agreement with MTV Networks Central (Europe) to share ‘cross-promotional activities’. The suggestion that it “is now set to take Europe by storm” is optimistic.

There is no mention of MTV providing content and anyway, the days when everything that MTV touched turned to gold are long gone. MTV FunkySexyCool is not a guaranteed hit.
