Some of the scariest moments you have as a startup founder is watching (via internet press releases / news updates) companies in your sector announce new products that *might* duplicate what your products/services do. Fortunately, you can almost always breathe a sigh of relief after digesting the content of the release or news, for it's rare when that other company actually has a product &/or service that competes with you.
The problem is that I ingest so much info, it's rare that I read something slowly, from start to finish, and more likely, I skim something that catches my eye, like the below snippet from email sent by a PR firm.
From Bango Corporate:
Bango launched Bango Boosted today, an API that is geared to help the mass market take full advantage of a low cost, mobile web presence. Bango Boosted is a web services API meant to enable mobile site builders to deliver Bango features to their customers' sites. mobiSiteGalore from Akmin Technologies is a site building tool designed to integrate with the Bango Boosted APIs and add Bango functionality to its core product. The services will also be available to users of site.mobi, the dotMobi site-building tool powered by mobiSiteGalore. Bango Boosted automatically activates entry level Bango functionality for any mobile website. Bango is looking for other site builder tools to use the API.
Skimming this, I get 'API; enable mobile site; site building tool'. I got a bit jumpy, then I read the entire piece and realized this service compliments us far more than competes with us. In fact, we met Bango at CTIA and might work with them.
