Customizable Application for iPhone Blends Twitter, Facebook, Web Content and More!

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Zumobi (www.Zumobi.com), today announced the availability of Ziibii, a free iPhone App now available on iTunes. Ziibii users enjoy a new way to stay in-touch and in-the-loop with friends, photos and the world around them. Blending Facebook, Twitter, Flickr , YouTube, and web content into a fresh experience, Ziibii is easy-to-use, fun to explore, and offers great features for wireless consumers as well as brands.

“As consumers flood to what Zumobi refers to as ‘Superphones,’ Ziibii brings benefits to brands looking for a new way to engage users while providing a unique and fun way for people to stay connected to the content they want.”

Ziibii enables real-time social interaction between users across a variety of popular social media applications, as well as on-going discovery of news, stories and blogs throughout the day. Displayed on the screen of the handset, Ziibii’s visual expression metaphor is a river with content “rafts” floating with the user’s pre-defined content, including direct-connect to social networking sites and RSS feeds.
