Mixi Mobile To Get A Make-Over Next Week [Social Networks]

Roughly 25 of the 30 billion or so page views Japan’s biggest social network Mixi is seeing per month come from mobile phones, meaning it’s not a big surprise that today Mixi announced it will revamp the feature phone version of its service on June 22.

The company says the new design is simpler, for example allowing users to upload pictures and post status updates more easily.

Mixi Mobile was launched back in 2004. Mixi Touch, the version for smartphones (which is pretty nice), was redesigned in April this year.

Here’s a screenshot of the new Mixi Mobile page for feature phones:
