ZYB, the company that brings mobile data to life, announced today that its users has uploaded and stored more than 10 million contacts on the website.
"10.683.118 contacts - that's approximately the same number of people living in Seoul, the world's largest city!", smiles Tommy Ahlers, CEO of ZYB and ads, "we are of course thrilled to see that mobile users all over the world appreciate our backup services and ever since trendsetting sites like

You can't make real friends onlineSo what's buzz that's turning everyone's mobile contacts increasingly more and more popular? "I think more and more people realizes that the people that matters the most to them are not the ones on Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, Bebo or any other online universe. The ones that matter are offline and they meet and act with them out there in real life. And those real relations are the ones you record and guard on your mobile phone", says Tommy Ahlers.
In order to back up his own statement, ZYB is launching a brand new
ZYB Facebook application. The app allows profile visitors to add their contact details to your mobile phone's address book - turning your Facebook friends into real friends (if you accept their request).
