MovieSet.com first to Mobilize Content using BUZmob™
Contec Innovations (TSX Venture Exchange - Symbol BUZ), a provider of mobile infrastructure software, today announced MovieSet.com as the first Internet portal to mobilize their content using BUZmob™, Contec’s new mobile publishing service.
BUZmob, now in beta release, allows content publishers such as MovieSet™, to enable mobile access to their feed-based content on any mobile device, on any mobile network, anywhere. Furthermore, BUZmob does not require users to install anything on their mobile device, as content is adapted in real-time to the user’s phone.
“We’re excited about using BUZmob to add mobile elements to our Web presence,” says Colleen Nystedt, President & CEO, MovieSet™. “Starting with MovieSet’s blog, we can reach film buffs and industry people alike with on-the-go access to the latest developments in the industry.”
MovieSet™ is about creating the ultimate movie experience, giving movie fans access to content they’ve never been able to see before. In MovieSet’s blog, Movie Marketing, Improved, MovieSet’s online marketing director shares his perspectives on films and marketing (and naturally, film marketing) as well as engaging people that are interested in what MovieSet™ is doing. Movie trailers, videos of celebrity interviews and other movie news can all be accessed through MovieSet’s blog. MovieSet™ has been recognized as one of Canada’s new media leaders. MovieSet™ is one of three finalists for the “Most Promising New Company of the Year” category of the Canadian New Media Awards to be held May 28th in Toronto, Canada.
