Viigo’s App World Debut Shatters Records

viigoToronto – In the 5 days since the launch of BlackBerry App World, Viigo for BlackBerry has consistently topped the list of the most popular downloads.

“The success of Viigo’s first few days on App World has exceeded our expectations” said Mark Ruddock, CEO Viigo “Although Viigo was already a very popular app, we’re seeing a stunning rise in activations since the launch of the store, and are currently experiencing more activations per day than we would normally see in well over a week.”

With one click access to News, Weather, Entertainment, Live Sports Scores and Schedules, Markets, Stock Portfolios, Flight Schedules and Status, Movies, Shopping, Twitter and more, this compelling app delivers the information you want, quickly, efficiently and intuitively in a format specially designed for your BlackBerry.

You just tell Viigo what you are interested in, and it keeps itself up to date, so your information is available immediately, wherever you are and whenever you need it. No waiting for the browser to load, no typing URLs, just the information you care about, instantly available, one click away.

“RIM has made it easy for people to discover and download the applications they want, and in so doing has unleashed an important opportunity for the BlackBerry Developer Community”, continued Ruddock, “With the millions of BlackBerry smartphones in the market today, the time is right for Software Developers to take advantage of the RIM ecosystem.”

Viigo, which has a 5 star CNET Editors Choice rating, is described by users as “the most highly used application after eMail on my BlackBerry”. Influential bloggers such as CrackBerry.com have also taken note, referring to it as “our favorite BlackBerry app, and the best way to consume content on a mobile device”
