For people who are familiar with the “Poke” applications on Facebook, don’t be surprised if you finally get to see it available on the iPhone. Halcyon Mobile has made all of this possible with MobiPoke, a messaging feature which iPhone owners can use to send and receive messages.

MobiPoke is designed to be at the base of the mobile messaging systems hierarchy and to be used as a “conversation starter”. However, the app can also be used as an independent messaging system on its own for longer “mPoke conversations” which may eventually escalate into a higher customized level of communication like an SMS, instant message or phone call.

MobiPoke is now available in two versions at the AppStore: a Lite and a Pro version. MobiPoke Lite is the free ad supported version of mobiPoke Pro which is ad-free while the mobiPoke Pro contains more actions. The MobiPoke App is priced at $2.99.

One thing about technology these days is that they allow you to meet and “flirt” with people on a different but larger scale. And people who feel hopeless as far as meeting Mr. Right or lack the socializing prowess to meet new people, this new application from SpeedDate.com can certainly connect you with people anywhere today. It is sort of similar to chatting on the web.

The SpeedDate iPhone app is a free service that allows singles to connect via three-minute instant message or live video dates. The SpeedDate.com iPhone application is completely integrated with the dating website: current members of the site can download the application and immediately access and manage their account and existing profile information, everyone else will need to create a new profile.
