Microsoft adds social networking to hotmail/live, and yahoo does it too on yahoo mail, google does it too.

Nokia has a user base, so trying to enhance OVI services is good.

And yes, I agree, once someone is on a social network where all his friends are, there is not an easy option to move to other So-Net. But there are always new users and users who have friends on many So-Nets like MySpace, Hi5, twitter, yahoo, etc. These people will try for sure a new service that has traction.
