Google unofficially announced that it has acquired Zingku, a mobile social networking and communication platform, this is according to the unofficial Google Operating System blog.

The Zingku service allows users to create and exchange invitations, mobile flyers as well as pictures with friends over the phone.  Zingku also allows users to integrate their mobile phones with a personalised website allowing them to easily upload and dowload  items back and forth.

No official statement has been officially published, but according to Google:

“it is true that we acquired certain assets and technology of Zingku. We believe these assets can help build products and features that will benefit our users, advertisers and publishers.”

With the highly anticipated launch of Google’s i-phone, this latest move reaffirms Google’s commitment to conquer the mobile space.
