Yesterday, I was talking with friends about the launch of the new iPhone 3G. The verdict? Lots of people ready to ditch their old Blackberrys.

While there probably were thousands of similar conversations around the country, what made this one unique was that it was done through Facebook, using the SeenThis?, a social convergence application by our client Loomia. One of my friends shared an article on the iPhone 3G with her Facebook friends and then the next thing I know we have 10 people talking about whether the new phone is a Blackberry killer and what new features were being supported.

It was a good day to be at the intersection of social media and the iPhone.
