One year later… the future of mobile looks even better
One year ago we announced that Nokia was featuring Strands in their “Phones should be open to anything” campaign.
Open to anything. We believe the smartest devices should keep getting smarter. That’s why we’ve left the Nokia Nseries open to enhancement, experimentation and evolution.
Mobile has always been a central component of what we do at Strands.
In the last year, we’ve been very active on mobile. The team has grown, and now 15 persons at Strands are exclusively dedicated to mobile. We also finally opened an office in Helsinki, home to the world’s largest manufacturer of mobile telephones, Nokia. We have built an amazing personal finance tool with tailored versions for Blackberry, iPhone and Nokia (S60) browsers, launched by BBVA, one of the largest banks in the world. We added Last.fm support to the Strands Social Player, presented Strands Widsets, organized parties and hosted mobile developers events.
All the team’s hard work was recognized by Nokia (winners of Nokia’s Mobile Rules 2008!), by BlackBerry (winners of the BlackBerry Developer Challenge) and last year by Orange (winners of the Orange Innovation Award in 2007).
This year in mobile has been an exciting one, but what the future will bring is even more exciting. In fact, the future is today: with so many possibilities open to developers to build cool services for iPhone, Nokia (S60), BlackBerry and soon Android, the future for mobile users looks great. And we will be making some great announcements soon.
Stay tuned!
