Radar.net article in need of revision.

Viewing and uploading is done via a website and mobile software including Java, Windows Mobile, and on Blackberry and iPhone. http://news.prnewswire.com/DisplayReleaseContent.aspx?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/03-10-2009/0004986344&EDATE=. {{cite news}}: Missing or empty |title= (help)

Has over 1,000,000 members as of January 27, 2009 with high use on mobile devices accessing the mobile web- 70% of views from mobile devices according to source http://mashable.com/2009/01/27/radar-on-iphone/. {{cite news}}: Missing or empty |title= (help) and http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/pda/2008/dec/08/startups-photography. {{cite news}}: Missing or empty |title= (help)

Functionality is not limited to sharing and viewing pictures. Browsing and commenting on content is part of what makes it a social networking service, which could be an additional Category for the article. Should also be on the List of social networking websites. Mentioned as a "mobile social networking service" on NYTimes.com http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/28/technology/personaltech/28smart.html?_r=2&oref=slogin. {{cite news}}: Missing or empty |title= (help) PRnewswire source referenced above mentions deep integration with Flickr

An information box can also be created for Radar at the top of the article. The logo is available for wordmark at the bottom of the 'Press' section of the website for the parent company, Tiny Pictures, Inc. {url=http://tinypictures.us/}

Additional information for this section could include the URL, http://radar.net , a Slogan "This is why you have a cameraphone.", Type being Private start-up, Founded in June 2006, Available languages being English, French, Spanish, German, and Italian and Type of site being photo sharing/video sharing and social networking.

Many other sources exist at the mentioned 'Press' section for the parent company. These verifiable sources and possibly the 'help' section of the service (at http://radar.net/help) warrant an article that has a 'Features' and/or 'History' headlined section in addition to the general description and proposed updates that exists now.

Would love to discuss proper means of attaching images or inserting/formatting references needed while maintaining neutrality if other editors do not wish to do this.
