mCentric Joins Forces with YooMediaPLC to Conquer Mobile Chat & Dating Services

mCentric is pleased to announce its partnership with YooMediaPLC, one of the fastest growing interactive entertainment companies in the UK. YooMedia essentially develops and delivers premium interactive content and services to households and individuals via TV, the web, telephony and mobile phones.

mCentrics mobile operator clients across the globe will enjoy more and better Community and Dating services across both 2.5 and 3G handsets.


David Bainbridge, Managing Director at YooMedia comments on the alliance:

We are pleased to be working in partnership with mCentric bringing
value to our clients' customers. By providing a complete suite of
products and services for consumer generated content, costs will be
reduced, revenues increased and greater customer choice provided.

Kevin Daly, CEO of mCentric adds:

The combination of mCentric and YooMedia strengths creates the
leading proposition for Mobile Carriers in the Chat and Dating space.

The new service enables subscribers to harness the power of video to find a prospective partner through the use of a simple and intuitive user interface on a 3G mobile handset.

Info on mCentric:
"In recent years the company has achieved strong annual revenue growth with a multitude of international sales in Europe, Asia and Africa. Reference customers include Vodafone, Telefica Miles, Sun Cellular in Asia and MTN Nigeria."

So plenty of potential there to exploit the partnership.

All these new announcements are very encouraging IMO--long term the finances will be well into the black. Look at the massively increased turnover figure shown in the recent update--the faithful will soon reap their rewards!! I very much hope I'm right as a friend who is into this type of technology says the city just doesn't realise how mega yoo's tech is going to be--miles ahead of any competitor. I'm tucking away for 2 years.

"as a friend who is into this type of technology says the city just doesn't realise how mega yoo's tech is going to be" we have all heard that type of comment to many times about yoomedia, but all we see are fire sales & losses ongoing.


Oily Jim's oil sniffing seals, I like that! LOL!! GOO is looking good.

by Staff Brand Republic 15 Feb 2006 11:00
LONDON - The BBC has appointed David Bainbridge, the former Five marketer, to a new role heading the marketing of its digital and new-media services.

The BBC said the appointment reflected the importance the corporation placed on the future of digital services. Bainbridge will be responsible for driving the take-up of digital television and radio and the development of internet and broadband, centring on the bbc.co.uk sites. He will report to Tim Davie, director of marketing, communications and audiences, and will be a key part of the BBC new-media management team led by Ashley Highfield, director of new media and technology. Davie said: "David has an impressive record of achievement in the marketing, broadcast and new media sectors. He is the right person to lead...

more good news for Yoo hopefully he will put a lot of BBC work their way.

This is the reason for the selling today I feel.

Dear Mr Bainbridge

Forgive the intrusion. I have seen the press today about your
appointment by the BBC. Does that mean that you will be formally leaving
Yoomedia.
Regards

All the bottle merchants selling. I do not know what the big deal is anyway, a director going to the BBC is probably a once in a lifetime opportunity for him as the BBC is a world wide organisation and as they are already partners with Yoomedia, I envisage more deals and opportunities coming Yoomedia's way. Great opportunity for topping up at these levels.

A huge compliment to YOO from the BEEB by hiring this guy.
The assumption being that their high opinion of him must be based on his previous work and so must be impressed with yoos' products.
I like the idea of having our very own Trojan horse at the Beeb,
ofcourse, it doesn't mean we don't have to work for what we get but I'd say we're off to a flyer in future dealings with a potentially huge customer.

same news as earlier about david bainbridge, but seems his title at YOO now changed to chief?,

i have read this through and thought about the good and bad consequences for YOO, so my own views are that initially thought it was bad for YOO but now maybe a good opportunity to have someone there at the beeb that really understands their business and how it could or might even be utilised, ofter all he does not seem to be too eager to jump ship if he does not join until 2nd May, so if he is still working at YOO for a while longer? there maybe no real bad feeling about him going or else they would probably end his contract very soon, and if he goes on friendly terms, can't be all bad, so lets wait and see -

oh and just a further thought, if they were really peed of with him going i'm sure there would not still be a profile of him on their exec team notice board on the yoomedia site, it would have already been taken off by tonight

YooMedia chief to head BBC digital marketing

And a real vote of confidence in YOO by him leaving ..... NOT.

sack the lot.

mctavish you are a bit daft "a huge compliment from the BEEB for hiring this guy"

no a huge compliment would be actually buying the services YOO offer and their software...you are a clown

There was a small article in last week`s Shares Magazine stating that YOO is due for re-rating and could go blue very quickly? We shall have to wait and see....

I heard the new broker is preparing a very positive buy note soon--if you look at the increased T/o released something like 8mill. to 82 mill. then profits can't be very far behind!! Those who know this company say it's technology is unique and will eventually
reward it's patient shareholders! I'm happy to hold onto mine--hope I-public is still in these.

I am MP. Still smarting a bit from holding them but hoping we are right to keep some faith.
Alan

don't worry just be patient!
