San Mateo, CA - November 8, 2008 - The popular iPhone social networking app, WhosHere, is helping Shereena Bogner get votes for MTV's The Real World.
Shereena, pictured below at the Playboy mansion, uses WhosHere to meet people near her home in San Diego that have similar interests. "I've been using WhosHere for a few weeks now and have already met several interesting people. I want to get voted onto MTV's The Real World and the 'on-phone' WhosHere community was interested in helping out."
A broadcast within the WhosHere application was made to all users yesterday to make them aware of Shereena's goal. The WhosHere community has grown to nearly 100,000 users since being launched on the app store. Bryant Harris, WhosHere founder and CTO, said, "We set up a special link to make it easy for users to vote for Shereena right from their iPhone. We are thrilled that users like Shereena have found WhosHere to be a great way to interact in new ways."
