Share on OVI Blog - Media Sharing: Photos, Video, Audio & More

Nokia has acquired Twango

This is an exciting moment for Twango. When we started Twango back in 2004, we set out to create a media-sharing service that would embrace and build connections between people. We wanted to make it easy for people to share the media they choose (photos, videos, audio, documents, and more) in whatever way they choose. So it was thrilling to learn that a company of Nokia’s global stature and resources shared that vision. Together we will be able to deliver more quickly on our shared vision to enable people to capture and enjoy their personal media anywhere, at anytime, from any connected device, in any way that you choose.

And a sincere “thank you” to the many loyal Twango members around the world who pushed us to improve the service and helped build our member base by sharing their own great media. As Twango joins the Nokia family our service will continue to operate without any major interruptions, although there will be some minor changes to our service and policies which we detail in this FAQ.

Twango voted one of the top Social Networks of 2006!

Thanks to all of you who voted for Twango in Mashable's Social Networking Awards contest. Your votes helped Twango win the Photo Sharing Site category. Now, I know you're wondering why we weren't in the video sharing category as well. Who knows? We were nominated, but Mashable chose not to include us. Maybe they were worried that we'd sweep that category too!

Thanks again for your help and Happy Holidays from your friends here at Twango!
