Latino Social Networks Increasing In Numbers

We just got a tip-off from a reliable source that IDT, the telecoms company that acquired the mobile ringtone and wallpaper-sharing site Zedge.net back in December, has now acquired the Latino social network MiMun2 for an undisclosed sum.

We haven’t covered the market much in the past, but Latino social networks are increasing in number – an article in Adweek on Monday pointed to elHood, MiGente, VozLatina, ZonaZoom, quepasa, Lazona and newcomer LatinosConnected, which launched in December 2006. The Hispanic market, it seems, is a highly contested niche.
