Nimbuzz for the Apple iPad
April 7th, 2010
Since the iPad has been released last Saturday there has been a lot of noise around the latest member of the Apple family.
With the current version of Nimbuzz working just great for the iPad (see above video), we wanted to give you a quick update on the status of our iPad specific version of Nimbuzz.
Releasing an early version which we weren’t able to test ourselves in real life wasn’t an option for us. We want to make sure that when we release our iPad app, it is exactly what you guys want, and everything it should be.
With an actual iPad now in hand we’ll be able to tailor a brilliant Nimbuzz experience for you guys so you can enjoy the best IM and VoIP on the iPad with free calls, chat, and file sharing.
Until then, check out some of the video footage of the official iPad launch filmed by our US team, who were at the Apple flagship store in San Francisco.
The best mobile phone – “Design by Community “
April 5th, 2010
Nokia came up with brilliant idea in my opinion. They have involved all their fans to design the best mobile phone around.
Here is how they present the idea on the Official Nokia Blog, Nokia Conversations:
Design by Community is capturing the collective thoughts of Conversations readers to define the ultimate concept mobile device. To avoid creating some kind of unwieldy beast, we’ve created a series of steps and every week, we’ll put new variables to the public vote. Once the product specs have been defined, we’ll get Nokia’s design team to turn them into a series of concept sketches which you can vote for. The winner will be turned into a design concept render and revealed exclusively on Conversations in May.

Taking the first steps to making revenue
April 1st, 2010As you know, Nimbuzz is a free application to download and to use and we want to keep it that way. However we need to find ways to make money so that we can still deliver the same quality product you got used to!
The first step in this direction was the launch of NimbuzOut, a great way of making really cheap international mobile calls.
Now we are also trying something else. With the new Symbian 2.3 we are experimenting with text ads. This is an additional revenue stream for us and we are aware that it needs to be executed well so it won’t bother your online experience.
