We just mofused our site at imediapress.mofuse.mobi. Mofuse, a mobile services company, gives content publishers the ability to publish their content to the mobile web seamlessly. Mofuse just secured its first round of seed capital. The Slater Technology Fund, a Rhode Island-based early-stage fund that is backed by the State of Rhode Island, provided the capital. The companies disclosed no further terms.
Founded in August 2007, MoFuse (short for Mobile Fusion) released its first technology product privately less than two months later and opened it to the public on November 1. The company had 2,200 mobile sites in its network at the end of 2007 and that number has surged to nearly 12,000 sites in mid of 2008, making it a fast-growing mobile site publishing network.
“The more we consume the web through our mobile devices, the more impetus there will be toward MoFuse’s growth,” said Thorne Sparkman, Managing Director of the Slater Technology Fund. “And while it assembles a burgeoning network of sites, MoFuse is building a talent and experience base that will be tough to overtake. Presentation is just the first in a series of hurdles that the blogosphere will need to surmount. We see this as a tremendous opportunity to enable a large, global publishing population to integrate with the mobile channel.”
The MoFuse Network, includes many notable blogs such as: Mashable, ReadWriteWeb, PoliticalWire and HarvardBusiness. The company provides several tools for publishers including analytics, montetizing opportunities, WYSWIG interface and branding for mofuse views.
