MySpace has the largest mobile network in US and UK with 12.3 million users accessing the social networking site using their mobile devices, a recent M:Metrics study shows.

From the 12.3 million MySpace mobile subscribers, America happens to be the largest market with 7.5 million users; followed by Italy with 1.3 million; UK with 1.1 million; and Spain, 751,000. Subsequently, Facebook follows MySpace in the mobile realm, garnering 2 million users in America and 307,000 in UK.

“Nearly every online social networking site has added the ability to connect to these communities with a mobile phone, allowing people to access profiles and share content while they’re on the go. With the mobile phone playing a central role in people’s social lives, it’s only natural that social networking sites are working to bridge the gap between the online and mobile worlds,” said Mark Donovan, senior analyst, M:Metrics.

True enough, social networking and web 2.0 startups continue to proliferate around the web and into our mobile devices. Twitter and Pownce, for example, have their own mobile way of updating, too. With this recent findings by M:Metrics, one shouldn’t be surprised that soon enough, other social networks will eventually add mobile functionality to their services also.
