The mobile social networking site officially launched last December 8 (read the press release). And here are some further updates and info on the service:

Apparently, the $2.99 charge for unmasking a secret admirer was just a test figure. This feature actually costs $0.30.

You can cut off cyber-stalkers at your discretion, by having all messages from them blocked.

If a user allows it, others can see the vicinity of his location. It seems Hobnobster is oriented towards building real-life relationships.

As Gayla Mccord of Dating Dames says:

Hobnobster is still in the infancy stages so now is the prefect time to jump on this bandwagon.

What are you waiting for, dear readers? Remember though that currently Hobnobster only works for US-based smartphone subscribers.
