New Functionality: Drag and Drop

October 24th, 2008

We´ve been working hard this week to launch a new functionality for the Wimob user application that we´re all very excited about - drag and drop.  Wimob now allows you to take any file (that is compatible with Wimob) from your desktop and simply drag it into the application so it´s ready to download to your mobile phone. Give it a try!!

Ever wanted to download your Facebook photos to your mobile phone?  Well now you can. And it´s easy.  We have just launched the Wimob Facebook Application that makes all of your Facebook photos portable with a simple click of a button.  Oh, and as always with Wimob - it´s completely free!

Follow these simple steps to get started:

1. Download and install the Wimob Application, which serves as the go-between from Facebook photo albums to mobile phones.

2. Specify your mobile phone model and type to the application settings (Wimob is compatible with more than 1000 mobile devices).

3. Get the Facebook application*

*It´s still in stealth mode, but you can find our application in Facebook by going to: apps.facebook.com/wimobwebtomobile

The Mobile 2.0 Tag Cloud

August 21st, 2008

Earlier this summer, we attended the mobile 2.0 event here in Barcelona (actually, we also presented) and came across an interesting visual that was presented by Rudy De Waele we thought was worth sharing.  Everyone has probably come across Kosmar´s web 2.0 tag cloud at some point in time, but now thanks to Heike Scholz there is a mobile 2.0 tag cloud that encapsulates a lot of important components of the mobile ecosystem.

Bitfilm Festival is a film festival in Germany that celebrates and showcases films that are created with digital technology. This year, Bitfilm 08 featured a new mobile category to show films and series that were specifically designed for mobile devices and Wimob was part of the action.

Appropriately, the mobile films utilized Wimob to help provide more viral exposure and enable users to download and preview the films on their mobile phones.
