Motorola was a founding member of the Open Handset Alliance and is said to be busy prepping an Android handset, but news just in has revealed more about the company's aims.

A job posting for a Senior Staff Interaction Designer for the telecoms company suggests that Motorola's first Android phone will have a unique angle.

Described as a smartphone, it seems Motorola's Android handset will have an emphasis on social networking, which seems to hint at a consumer-aimed model.

The ad reads: "As a Senior Staff Interaction Designer, you will be responsible for leading and actively participating in the concept, design, documentation and development of user interfaces for our mobile products including our new Android Social Networking SmartPhone".
