TheFeature.Com Celebrates First
Birthday
(August 17, 2001)
Nokia's voice of wireless Internet marks successful
opening year
TheFeature.com, Nokia's dedicated online site for the wireless Internet
community, turns one today. During its first year, TheFeature.com has become the
premier industry-meeting place for mobile minds, attracting over 11,000
registered members from 120 different countries around the globe. In addition,
TheFeature.com was selected as Editor's Choice by Wireless Week, Popular Science
and Smart Money.
Aside from providing a platform for frank exchanges from the industry fore, the
site has come to be known as a valued information source and educational tool,
dealing with issues ranging from wireless games and online gambling to mobile
finance and the future of mobile Internet.
"Our words and ideas fly through the air around us and between mobile
devices and the people that hold them; TheFeature.com is about the only place
that all this information and excitement touches down to earth," says
industry guru and regular contributor Justin Hall.
Martin Sandelin, Nokia Senior Vice President Corporate Marketing, says, "I
am more than pleased that TheFeature.com was able to establish such a strong
following in its first year. The calibre of contributions from our writers and
content partners has been high and the views expressed on a range of widely
disparate topics have in some cases even sparked a shift in industry-wide
thinking."
To mark the anniversary, members will be presented with a new e-mail newsletter
service. Subscribers will be given the opportunity to receive weekly roundups
pulled from their own topic choices, including business, technological and
cultural developments in the industry.
