Emap to increase its spread of UGC
Emap will use new mobile acquisition Yospace Technologies to bring user-generated content to brands such as Heat and Empire, as well as developing Yospace's Look at Me TV platform as a stand-alone brand.
The media owner acquired Yospace last week in a £14.4m deal,
including £8.7m up front in cash. The mobile company made a loss
of £480,000 in 2005.
Andrea Kilbourne, managing director of mobile for Emap, said of the Look

at Me platform, currently available on the 02 and 3 networks: "It can be
a brand in its own right, and we will use our marketing resources to
take it to the UK market and globally."
She added that user-generated content was already highly popular via the
FHM and Zoo mobile sites.
