If you don’t know what Nokia Pulse is, it is a new social networking service from Nokia. Here’s how they’ve explained it:

Nokia Pulse brings your everyday conversations to life by automatically tagging photos and updates with your location. Every conversation, from pickups and drop-offs to meet-ups, is as instant, private, and simple as sending a text, but far more useful and engaging.

Nokia Pulse is integrated with Maps, so finding people nearby, discovering new places, and getting directions is a snap.

Group Conversations:
Keep it Private. Keep it Personal. Keep it Real.

  • Private check in – All your conversations stay private and safe
  • Photo check in – Automatically tag your location to all your photo updates
  • Private by default – No complicated privacy settings needed

Live Places:
One tap and they know where you are. Two taps to get you there.

  • Bring your favorite places to life – Post a favorite place to a conversation
  • Discover what’s nearby – Make and view recommendations of nearby places of interest
  • Getting there is a snap – Get directions directly from the recommended place

Your People:
Your Family. Your People. You Decide.

  • Instant – Receive instant on-device notifications of all new updates
  • Open – Everyone with an email address can participate
  • Easy – Sending and receiving messages with Nokia Pulse is as easy as SMS
  • Powered by the cloud – Your conversations are saved in the cloud for as long as you need them
  • Accessible from anywhere – Nokia Pulse is available on multiple touch-points (desktop web, mobile web, WP7 and Symbian devices)

And on the last point there – yes that’s right Nokia Pulse is available on the web too. You can check it out at http://pulse.nokia.com:
