IYOUIT is a mobile alpha service to share personal experiences with others while on the go. It has been released in June 2008 by DOCOMO Euro-Labs. [cite web|accessdate=2008-07-04|url=http://www.docomoeurolabs.de/press/080626_press_release_english.html|title=Press Release: IYOUIT, a mobile alpha service to share personal experiences with others while on the go|publisher=DOCOMO Euro-Labs|date=June 26, 2008]

Share, life, blog and play are the basic application fields of the mobile application IYOUIT that allows for an instant automated sharing of personal experiences within communities online. It offers rich contextual tagging for use in everyday life. By hooking a mobile phone up to the popular Web 2.0 services Flickr™ and Twitter™, sharing can be instant, by posting single data items to such services, or through the aggregation of context information in online blogs. The cutting edge of IYOUIT is in how information about and around the mobile user is automatically collected, analyzed and enriched for an enhanced user experienced and extra value to Web 2.0 services.

Sharing your life with IYOUIT is easy! In the same way experiences can be communicated to others, IYOUIT provides users with an easy access to the whereabouts of their buddies, informs them about local weather conditions and uploads photos taken and sounds recorded. And if the user comes across an interesting book (or other products), he may simply take a picture of the ISBN code or the product ID with the phone's camera, and IYOUIT will fill in the blanks for instant exchange with friends. IYOUIT also records scanned Bluetooth or WLAN beacons and aggregates all data into a wealth of context information that one may share with others worldwide on the Web and on the mobile phone.

Each component offers an API, which allows programmers to integrate their own third party software components.
