NewsGator Partners with GMO Group in Japan

By Melissa Risteff, June 06, 2006

This morning we announced a partnership with the GMO Internet Group in Japan.  They will be offering a localized, hosted service featuring NGES to customers in that market.  GMO is a household name in Japan and that country is close behind the US in terms of adoption of blogs and RSS.  This partnership helps us expand overseas without building out a large presence in country and it offers GMO Group a product they can easily customize to meet the particular needs of their market.  Read more about the partnership from the press release. Watch this space for more partnership announcements in the future.

On a different note, as part of our ongoing efforts to improve our products, we're conducting a short survey of our individual product users (NewsGator Online, NewsGator Inbox, FeedDemon and NetNewsWire).  Click here to take the survey. We sincerely appreciate the feedback and we will keep your comments confidential.
