GFGU GetFugu Inc (CE)

Getfugu, Inc. (http://www.getfugu.com/) (OTCBB: GFGU), the next generation mobile search tool, announced today that its "See It, Say It, Get It" mobile search technology is featured on BIA/Kelsey website subsequent to an interview of Rich Jenkins by Michael Boland regarding the current state of development at Getfugu.

Boland reports, "The app, currently in beta for iPhone, Blackberry and Android, allows users to speak or take pictures of search inputs. But unlike the broader search of Google voice and visual Google search, this is built mostly around brands. This allows the company to have a more focused user experience, and one that taps into greater commercial intent. It also differs from general search in that it directly feeds users the brand information in its database, instead of landing them on a '10 blue links' results page. The company also has an eye on the local space. In addition to reaching brand advertisers, it sees the mobile device's location capabilities as a natural fit for SMB advertisers. This could include direct sales resources (both internal and via partners), to tackle this massive but elusive segment. Next steps also include streamlining the clock speed of voice and visual search results, and to integrate a UGC feature for users to add brand logos it doesn't have. It will also continue to build the app for every major smart phone platform (including the new Windows Phone 7) and J2me."

"The interview covered the state of the industry and state of progress at Getfugu," said Co-Founder Rich Jenkins. "We all agree the mobile search industry is in its infancy, yet even at this point it demonstrates the potential to become the largest, most significant search segment ever. The technologies involved and user experience are continuing to evolve and consumers are showing an increased propensity to the use their mobile phones as a source of information and ultimately a purchase tool. The segment can grow beyond enormous."
