One such publisher is Travelocity, who has completed a travel app with Conduit for Vacation Package, Flight, and Hotel deals. Bebo, one of the world’s largest social networks in the world with 120mm registered users, has launched a new toolbar that ports the best features of its website to the browser, including video, games, photos and friend updates. And fans of tennis superstar Venus Williams can now download her official toolbar to get images, videos and constantly updated news about her from all the major browsers.

“These last few months have marked incredible growth in the Conduit Network of publishers and users,” said Conduit president Adam Boyden. “Our easy-to-use platform is in demand across industries as diverse as professional sports, travel, charities, gaming, education, and medical. The addition of these offerings from truly global brands speaks volumes about the growing influence and power of Conduit.”

Publishers everywhere are realizing the reach and scale that Conduit’s network provides. The Weather Channel, cable’s #1 resource for weather news and information, has developed an application that provides users with an on-demand look at the weather in their area and beyond. AOL Latino, one of the world’s leading resources for news in the Latino community, has developed an application to deliver Spanish-language news, sports, entertainment and shopping. Knowledge Adventure, the leading publisher of educational games for kids, now uses Conduit to provide real time progress reports and instant access to some of their most popular games.

Conduit has also been selected by such leading brands as BigPoint, High Gear Media, Wetter.com, Hyves, BreakoutBand, GiveBackAmerica, and many other smaller businesses and website owners.

The announcement of these publishing partners continues the momentum generated by Conduit in 2011.

The Conduit App Marketplace is currently in use by hundreds of thousands of publishers, including Major League Baseball, Groupon, Zynga, Fox News and TechCrunch.
