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.

Smartphones have clearly emerged in the mainstream marketplace, no longer used solely by the business community, and the advent of the iPhone took the concept of the smartphone to the next level

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. A
