Mbth: kik nature: mobile phone address book social software type: software features: simplicity, real meaning, development, application, influence, BBM, operator, domestic status, usage and significance kik is a mobile phone address book social software, which can directly establish contact with contacts based on local address book, and on this basis, it can realize free SMS chat, photo release of incoming calls, personal status synchronization and other functions. To put it simply, kik is a cross-platform application software that can send messages to friends who also have kik installed in their mobile phones for free. To put it bluntly, kik is an IM with information push technology. Compared with Gtalk, MSN, QQ and other IM, Kik has the advantages of simple user experience and real friend network. Kik was developed in 20 10, and only logged into the App Store and Android Market in June of 19. Kik is a cross-platform instant messaging (IM) software with extremely simple functions-it can't send photos or attachments, but it attracted150,000 users within 5 days after its launch. This is a new miracle in the era of mobile Internet. Kik can attract 1 10,000 users within 15 days, not only because it pleases people who are tired of bloated and complicated IM tools with extremely simple functions. But because kik has made an important expansion of people's social networks. In the process of registering kik, users need to enter their phone number and email address, and these personal information will be sent to kik server. After that, the background system will automatically search and match who has installed kik in the user's address book in the database, and then push a prompt to friends whether they want to be friends with this person on kik. In fact, message push based on email "weak relationship link" has long been the standard configuration function of old social tools and social networks such as MSN, Gtalk, QQ, Facebook, etc., and Apple's newly emerging GameCentre has also used this function. Prompt email letters, update friends' real-time status, invite friends to experience, etc. People are used to selectively capturing certain information after being "pushed". However, the mobile phone address book is a social network with deeper meaning than email-the people in the mobile phone address book are at least familiar to users, so this social network is most closely related to reality. However, social networking applications based on mobile phone address books have always been blank. In fact, even in the field of PC Internet, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and QQ are popular today, the social potential of mobile phone address book has not been fully tapped. Therefore, in this context, the relationship layer is deposited on the kik of the mobile phone, which realizes the "seamless connection" between the real world and the virtual world, making the mobile terminal a new social node. Kik has crossed the barriers of operators, hardware, software and social networks at the same time. Coupled with the extremely simple application experience, Kik has become the first application that Apple has developed after opening the door to cross-platform applications. It is also logical. As Tera Kristen, a member of kik team, said in the article Inter vs.Real-life, "If you think pessimistically that the social relations of this generation are completely based on the Internet, you are wrong. The Internet and the real world should be seamless. " In the field of mobile Internet, the best combination of location-based application services and state-based application services is the mobile phone address book. From this perspective, it is not impossible for kik to continue to expand its influence and replace short messages with functions similar to social networks but requiring payment. With the great charm of kik, RIM, which originally agreed to log kik into the BlackBerry App Store (App World), forced kik to take off the shelf on 10112 on the grounds of "considering user privacy" and cancelled some functions. Subsequently, RIM took kik to court on suspicion of stealing technical secrets (Ted Livingston worked for RIM's BlackBerry Messenger Group in 2007-2008). The industry generally believes that this is because kik completely stole the limelight of BlackBerry Messenger, an IM tool between BlackBerry devices, which RIM did not expect. In fact, kik's experience reflects the survival dilemma of this kind of application-because it spans multiple platforms and must rely on the support from operators, terminal manufacturers and system platforms, it is difficult for kik to achieve "seamless connection" when external variables change. The first threat to the world brought by the impact of BBM Kick is undoubtedly the BBM service of BlackBerry. It is also natural that kik was removed from App World by RIM on the grounds of "invasion of user privacy". Kik, like BBM, can send free push messages to each other among BlackBerry friends and add friends. The difference is that BBM is a paid service, which is an advanced service that only blackberry users with BES/BIS can enjoy, while kik is completely free, which makes RIM very unhappy. What makes RIM even more unhappy is that kik has threatened RIM's strategy of building its social network through BBM, and kik is a cross-platform product, and BBM can only be used by BlackBerry users. Kik has been removed from the application world of BlackBerry. Obviously, this can't effectively prevent kik from spreading among BlackBerry users, because App World is not the only channel for distribution of BlackBerry applications, or even a very effective channel. Even if kik falls, more Kiks will stand up. Behind the fiery Kik is the general trend of user demand. I believe that RIM can't help doing something because it has always been under the control of * * *. Will BlackBerry's BBM service launch cross-platform component applications, and will it be open to the other half of BlackBerry users who do not provide BES/BIS services? I believe that if the head of RIM is a smart CEO, he knows what to do. Kik, the operator in China, actually has few ordinary users, but people in the mobile Internet industry are using it. According to the feedback from some friends on Sina Weibo, it is said that kik clients in some areas have been unified by operators. It's only a matter of time before kik reconciles in China. Discordant, just because the amount of kik is too small, there is no need for operators to fight. The reason why operators unify kIk is very simple, because kik & affects value-added services, which is one of their huge profit sources. MMS and Fetion, the big brother of China telecom operators, are still a big impact. It's not stupid enough to create another QQ. The small miracle of kik users' growth proves a problem: users still have great demand for this simple communication method. In other words, mobile QQ, Fetion, BBM, etc. Far from satisfying the appetite of these users. Mobile QQ is hopeless. Fetion, BBM, or emerging address book manufacturers, who can quickly achieve transformation, may be able to get another leap. Of course, it takes courage and is based on your own judgment. There is no denying that this is the opportunity, the user demand proved by kik. However, by the end of 20 10, many cross-platform IM applications such as PingChat and Whatsapp had appeared in the foreign mobile internet world. They are all simple applications based on mobile phone address book, which shows that the trend in this field has just begun. At the end of 20 10 and 12, the first kik-like application-Mi Chat was born in China. Written by Xiaomi Technology, a well-known domestic application development team, Xiaomi team only spent one week developing Mi Chat. Xiaomi Technology received an investment of $35 million with a valuation of $200 million. The official slogan of Mi Chat is: "Love free, love real-time status more, which is more convenient than SMS, so don't worry about the phone bill. Novel communication method, I am not QQ, nor Fetion, I am Mi Chat. " -This "common object" accurately summarizes the advantages and characteristics of kik applications. An insider of Xiaomi Technology told Business Value that although the function seems simple, there are many hidden restrictions behind the application similar to kik, and its R&D and promotion must only belong to those teams with strong technical strength and capital, and both are indispensable. This is because: on the one hand, the huge data traffic generated by kik service requires high quantity and quality of servers, which means a lot of financial support is needed. In fact, after kik went online, its server crashed twice because the number of users far exceeded expectations. With the gradual increase of additional functions, the requirements in this respect will be higher and higher. Otherwise, it will cause great uncertainty to the prospect of this application. On the other hand, although Xiaomi Technology has only been developing Mi Chat for a week, their research based on such products began as early as July 20 10 when Facetime came out. This person said that due to the large number of platforms, the technical difficulty of kik is comparable to FaceTime, which is beyond the reach of ordinary technicians. So, in the long run, who will be the biggest player of the new application of mobile phone address book? First of all, telecom operators seem to have no chance to develop kik products. Not only their business conflicts, but also the operator's R&D system is not suitable for kik products. The rumor that China Mobile attacked Teng Xun and charged the latter a "signaling fee" for mobile QQ also proved the antagonistic relationship between operators and such applications. Traditional PC client giants such as QQ and some mature Internet companies have had relatively successful mobile port experience, and it seems that they can easily develop similar products. Moreover, large companies take away the mobile phone address book, so that it can continue to generate value and gain the trust of users more easily. In fact, the success of Xiaomi's technology team lies in taking the lead in seeing the vacuum in this field in China-the experience of ——QQ mobile version is poor, Fetion does not support cross-platform operators, and the IM application based on WiFi is blank, and Xiaomi Technology has full motivation and conditions to fill this gap.
