What is iBuddz?

iBuddz is one of the fastest growing mobile application platforms based on unique HD media software. It's like plugging your mobile phone, tablet or laptop into cable - without the cable or the cable bill! Traditional mobile application platforms like Apple's iPhone or Google's Android, can only deliver a single channel to your mobile phone, tablet or laptop. But iBuddz can deliver thousands of channels to these same mobile devices using the same bandwidth. Best of all, there's no software to download! Your applications and content are updated instantly.

Similar to Apple's iPhone and Google's Android mobile platforms, iBuddz draws on a community of over 1 million developers. This allows iBuddz to support all the top applications you see on the iPhone and Android, plus many more similar applications that currently cannot be supported by either of these platforms.

Unlike iPhone and Android, iBuddz can support a wide range of mobile devices including Blackberry, Nokia, iPhone, iPad, Android and many more. With iBuddz, instead of being limited to interaction with only others that have the same phone you do, you're now able to interact with any of your friends - no matter which type of phone they have! iBuddz gives you the freedom to communicate and share with your friends, business associates, family or anyone, the way you want to - not the way the way a phone provider wants you to.

Connect with others, find events, find sponsors or marketing opportunities - all to help promote your work and yourself. Join with others in the community to create either local or on-line events to help further your projects. Use the Social Network tool to keep in touch with your contacts, build excitement and market your music, videos, films and movies to over 64 social networking sites.
