Koprol opens to the public!
Koprol goes into public beta today (May 19th, 2009). After testing it under private beta for 3 months and gathering more than 1400 beta testers, we are ready to welcome more people to Indonesia’s own mobile social network.
What’s Koprol?
Koprol is a mobile social networking site that connects you with people around you. Koprol allows you to share your short postings, location, photos, reviews, with your friends and also other people nearby. With Koprol you’ll know where your friends are and what’s happening around you.
What’s the difference?
While most social networks make you stay in front of the computer, Koprol goes with you as you roll around town and find friends to meet in real life.
How it works: Wherever you go, you can ‘check in’ to a place (like ‘Pacific Place’ or ‘Bintaro’), and type what you are doing (like ‘having the best pancakes’ or ’shopping for sandals’), then all your friends in Koprol as well as on Facebook know where you are and what you’re doing.
What’s more fun, you can see who else is in your area and what’s happening around you. You can interact with them by writing short comments and maybe even meet up! Also, you can post pictures, write restaurant reviews, view the map, all from your mobile phone. Koprol is very easy to use, works on any phone browser and doesn’t require GPS.
Koprol is designed for Indonesian cities. We started with Jakarta and expanding to other cities and regions based on real usage, like Bali, Bandung, Surabaya, Surakarta, Sidoarjo, Yogyakarta, Semarang, Surakarta, Bengkulu, Medan, Banda Aceh, Palembang, Makassar, Balikpapan, Cirebon, Papua, Singapore, Houston, Indianapolis.
Beta
During this public beta phase, we will regularly add new features. We are already working on features like BlackBerry application, find restaurants nearby, find friends in the map, etc. But what excites us is the positive feedback we’ve got saying Koprol is easy to use and goes well with people’s daily activities. Everywhere you go, you can share recommendations on dining and shopping from local people through Koprol.
So please try it out now at koprol.com and send us your feedback 
Koprol was founded by SkyEight, a software company based in Kebayoran Baru, and Tulakom, a web design service.

“Koprol is designed for Indonesian cities. ”
tapi sayang… tidak Indonesian language.
