Nimbuzz recently launched a beta version of their service. It provides free instant messaging as well as a very cool VOIP service for your mobile phone (like what Skype provides for your PC). Best of all (at least from my perspective), their IM back-end is powered by Wildfire. Nimbuzz is a great example of how communications are converging in innovative ways. As we're seeing with a number of customers, Wildfire is in the thick of that process.

 

My lame U.S. phone doesn't have J2ME support so I haven't been able to actually try the service yet. I'll have to hunt down somebody in the office with the required equipment...

We're number 443!

Posted by Sam Lawrence Aug 22, 2006

Not a chant you hear too much but we certainly were doing it around the office today when we found out that we earned a place on the 2006 Inc.500 list as the 443rd fastest-growing privately held business in America. The full list will be put up tomorrow on their website and we'll show up on page 177 of the September issue (we got an advanced copy).

Next year we hope to break the record for the fastest climbing privately held Inc. 500 winner ever. Look out #1!
