Abstract

This paper introduces Fusion Mobile, an application supporting community-based social networking and P2P file sharing for mobile devices running the S60 platform. In this case study, the Fusion Mobile prototype is used to examine the design process in order to provide insights into mobile social networking application development, as well as the pros and cons of involving communities in the design process.
