ZipClip — Introducing the World’s Best Way to Fun Up Your Phone!
Revolutionary New Product Allows Consumers to Clip Most Anything From Anywhere on the World Wide Web and Send It Instantly to Their Mobile Phone or a Friend’s Phone
PALO ALTO, CA and BEIJING and MADRID, SPAIN–(EMWNews – July 22, 2008) – As mobile phone
usage worldwide continues to increase and evolve to include more forms of
entertainment and enjoyment, users are seeking out new and better ways to
personalize and “fun up” their mobile experiences. In response to this
demand, leading mobile applications provider Berggi today announced their new product
ZipClip. For the first time ever,
consumers easily can clip most anything they want from the Web — videos,
photos, images, graphics, animations, avatars, thumbnails, and text —
while browsing from their computer, and send it instantly to their mobile
phone or a friend’s phone with a simple right-click of the mouse. The
service is free to users, who are only limited by their time and
imagination to “fun up” their phones.
“ZipClip’s revolutionary simplicity makes it effortless for people to fun
up their phones with rich and social Web content,” said Babur Ozden, CEO of
Berggi. “ZipClip makes people’s phones the next big social networking
platform — especially for hundreds of millions of teenagers and young
adults around the world whose phones are their preferred and sometimes
primary source of entertainment and connection with others.”
Prior to ZipClip, tools for sending Web content to mobile phones — such as
email, SMS, MMS, Bluetooth and cable cords — had been users’ only means
to populate their phones with interesting Web content. However, the use of
these tools is painstakingly time consuming and requires too many steps. In
a single click, ZipClip eliminates the hassle and pain that has been
limiting and inhibiting users from adding more Web content to their mobile
phones.
“ZipClip leverages a few simple insights: consumers prefer to use their
computer, not their phone to browse the Web; they have limited time when on
their phone and want to take a specific and immediate action — like
talking, texting, or accessing desired content instantly; and consumers
prefer unlimited choice, not constraints. ZipClip brings this all together.
It’s free, simple, and the only instant and effortless way available today
to send exactly the content you want from the Web to your mobile phone,”
continued Ozden.
How ZipClip Works
To start, go to www.zipclip.com, and select “Get It Now.” ZipClip will
direct users through a short and simple installation of the application on
their computer and mobile phone.
As users browse the Web from their computer, and see a particular item that
they want to put into their phones, they simply right-click their mouse on
that content and select “Send to my phone,” from the installed ZipClip menu
on their browser. The clipped content is instantly placed in their “My
Stuff” folder in the ZipClip application on their phones. In this way,
users can clip and send a variety of content effortlessly to their phones
and to friends’ phones — Web to phone, or phone to phone — and “fun up”
their mobile phones.
In addition, ZipClip offers an online instant content editing tool called
Studio, which allows users to customize and personalize clipped content. A
user can shorten long videos into a few seconds, crop photos or customize
ringtones before sending it to their phone or their friends’ phones.
Availability & Requirements
Users around the world can begin installing and using ZipClip today for
free. The English language version of ZipClip is available today; the
Chinese language version will be available in early August 2008 during the
Olympics, to be followed by the Spanish version.
Within the U.S., the application is compatible on regular mobile phones and
BlackBerry with AT&T or Sprint service. At this time, ZipClip is not
compatible with other PDAs, including Treo and iPhone. Internationally,
ZipClip will work on most carriers and on Java and Symbian mobile phones.
To use ZipClip, users will need Internet access on their phone; standard
carrier rates will apply.
