Small technology company signs deal for mobile app which cracks lucrative U.S. college market

ABC The mobile application is expected to reach about 10 million U.S. college students.

Perth-based social networking company Moko has signed a deal for a mobile application which could crack open the lucrative US college market.

The app, called REC-IT, is designed to co-ordinate the social activities of millions of college students.

The company will roll it out from next year with hopes to extend it to 600 universities by August.

It is the second such deal for Moko.

Moko boss Ian Rodwell started working on the app with a small team of five in 2005 from a tiny office in Perth.

He says it is similar to the original idea behind facebook which was initially designed for student communities on American college campuses.

"What this tool does, is it allows them to find out what's available, what activities there are," he said.

"It might be everything from joining a basketball league to doing a yoga class or a spin class and it allows them to track all the schedules and times they can use the rec centres.

"If they're in a league or playing in a team it reminds them what's on when, what court they're playing on or if there is a change to that schedule, it also tracks all of their stats and results."

Social media jargon confusing? It’s all about starting a conversation

RT. @. #Hashtag. DM .... If you have no idea what any of that stands for, you're not alone. The social media learning curve is steep and daunting - jumping in requires learning a new language! But with almost three-quarters of adults in the U.S. now using social networking sites, the desire of nonprofit organizations to be more connected to an online audience and community is stronger than ever.

In the last 2 years, the percentage of Internet users who are on Twitter has more than doubled, currently standing at 18 percent. Facebook is still the most widely used social networking site, and Instagram and Vine are signing up new amateur photographers and videographers at record speed.

You might be ready to jump on board, but when strapped for time and resources, you want proof that using these sites will lead to results.

But ... not so fast. Don't rush out of the gate focusing on growing your base, analyzing the click rates of your content and designing innovative online campaigns. Take a step back and recognize what these sites are mainly used for - conversations.

I often hear from other foundations that they're "not sure what to say" or "don't have enough unique content to produce" because they're not direct service organizations. But these same folks are asked to attend important events and conferences and readily jump into exciting conversations offline, so they definitely have a unique and valuable perspective to add, online or offline.

Start by listening. Use hashtags and a trusty search bar to find groups and individuals who you're already connected to offline. On Twitter, create lists and save searches to organize those you're following by topic or geographic area so you're not overwhelmed by the feed. Following people on social networking sites is no different than showing up at a networking event with a "Hi, my name is ..." tag stuck to your lapel. You're in front of them now, and you're listening to what they have to say. Being online just makes networking easier and more efficient.

#Hashtags? What are Hashtags?
