Last Friday we had the pleasure of some of the UK’s top tech and style bloggers at an exclusive event at London’s May Fair Hotel to have a look at the new LG Secret (KF750). A good crowd turned up, and as well as meeting us in the flesh, they got a chance to hear from Jeremy Newing, UK head of marketing for LG Mobile.

Jeremy first went through the phone’s features with a presentation, and then he fielded a really engaging Q&A with the audience, talking about the progress LG Mobile have made, LG’s plans for the future, including more open development for our phones, collaborating with users more, and designing phones with “Web 2.0″ in mind. After that our guests got a chance to try the phones hands-on.

I won’t go into to too much detail, as I think it’s best to read what the bloggers there thought instead, so why not check them out - from SMS Text News, Gaj-It and one part truth. There’ll be more to come (including video of the event) over the coming week, so keep an eye out for more…

Fancy getting a LG Viewty for free and having your bill paid? Shiny Media and LG have launched a Europe wide mobile blog project called City Clickers, which is of course open to UK residents.

The aim is to get mobile bloggers to capture the style and character of their city though its residents. They are looking for ten creative people who are willing to go out and photograph the people around them in the spirit of the army of street style bloggers such as The Sartorialist and Face Hunter. Those taking part will be issued with a Viewty to carry out the project, have their phone bill paid for two months and get some training so they can get the most out of the 5 MP camera.
