Shoutz Premier Social Video Network Gains Momentum for January 2012 Launch

The Mobile-to-Mobile Platform Lets You Easily Watch, Record and Share Video Shoutz from Your Chosen Group of Friends or Celebrity Channels

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Shoutz (www.Shoutz.com), the social mobile video network, continues to build momentum as it prepares for a January 2012 launch. As the premier mobile-to-mobile platform for recording and sharing personal videos, 15-second video “Shoutz” can be recorded, watched and shared directly from the free mobile application available on both the Android and Apple platforms. Users can download the app now from the Android Market or iTunes Store and get first access to the new content that Shoutz is unveiling in January.

“My mind is going in hundreds of different directions imagining all the crazy, serious, goofy, philosophical, couth and uncouth variations on a few of my themes.”

As Shoutz gears up for the 2012 launch, celebrities and brands are joining the Shoutz network daily and beginning to load content. Through celebrity channels, Shoutz provides exclusive access and content to fans from their favorite celebrities, including new channels from NASCAR Member’s Club, model Kim Alexis, musician Carly Simon, American Idol finalists like Siobhan Magnus and ABC’s primetime drama, Body of Proof.

Celebrity profiles are validated and monitored by Shoutz, eliminating imposters. Picture the locker room after a championship win through the eyes of your favorite athlete, or backstage to a sold-out concert by your favorite band. With Shoutz, this exclusive content can be in the palm of your hand.

“Instant communication has become an expected part of our daily lives, but there hasn’t been a compelling mobile-to-mobile video sharing platform until now,” said Jim Mueller, CEO of Shoutz. “We go beyond real-time text updates and provide an engaging video solution for people to communicate with their friends - as well as their favorite celebrities and brands - in a more personal way.”

A new level of personal communication is possible with the instant video sharing of Shoutz. More engaging than short text or long videos, Shoutz makes it easy with its free, user-friendly mobile app. Watch, record and share Shoutz directly from the app, allowing people to see what you see, or letting you see the world through other’s eyes.

"I'm so excited about this ‘new’ way of communicating with Shoutz,” said music icon Carly Simon. “My mind is going in hundreds of different directions imagining all the crazy, serious, goofy, philosophical, couth and uncouth variations on a few of my themes.”

Above all else, Shoutz is social. Through the Shoutz app, users can instantly and easily share on Facebook and Twitter using the integrated buttons. Users are able to comment and get feedback on watched and recorded videos.

“In 20 years of mobile, Shoutz is by far the most addictive service I have used on a phone,” said Rick Hennessey, CEO of Cequint and Board Member of Shoutz. “Major brands and celebrities have taken notice and we’re looking forward to a strong launch in 2012.”

Shoutz is available for download in the Apple App Store for iOS5 and in the Android Market for Froyo 2.2 and higher. Join Shoutz and start showing the world what you see at www.Shoutz.com.
