Rabble Lets Verizon Wireless Get It Now(R) Customers Join The First Enhanced Mobile Blogging Network
Rabble Enables Verizon Wireless Customers to Create, Publish and Share Media and Connect with Others Based on Proximity or Areas of Interest
BEDMINSTER, N.J. and SAN DIEGO, July 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon Wireless, the nation's leading wireless provider, and Intercasting Corporation, the first Location-Aware Media Networking Operator (LMNO), today announced the availability of Rabble, the first mobile application designed to empower individuals to create, publish and share media and connect with others based on proximity or areas of interest. With Rabble, Verizon Wireless customers with select Get It Now-enabled phones can use their mobile devices to create and distribute their own content, connecting people by customer-provided location specific information. Rabble turns Get It Now customers into producers, inviting them to create and publish media on their phones enabling them to inform, entertain and interact with others.
Capitalizing on the massive consumer trend toward Internet blogging, Rabble users can publish personalized media channels through certain channels to allow Rabble users to promote themselves, connect with like-minded individuals or groups, give voice to opinions, discuss events, report news, review locales and more. Rabble users define their own limits or rules that govern who can access their channel of information -- and this feature allows them to maintain control over the distribution of personal content. Rabble users can conduct powerful searches of user-generated content based on interest, time, location or browse the available community around them to connect with one individual or to many. Though it is the first mobile-centric blogging application, Verizon Wireless Get It Now customers who use many of the top blogging sites can use Rabble as a tool to publish to their existing blog on the Web or import their existing blog to Rabble.
