ThinkersGroup to Drive Adoption of Wireless Web

In an effort to drive the widespread adoption of the wireless Web, ThinkersGroup Inc. has introduced a marketing program, ThinkWAVES™, that will generate revenue for mobile portals via the wireless Web for free and a new technology to attract more wireless Web users.

ThinkWAVES is designed on the company’s patent-pending platforms, which allows operators to select the type of value-added services to offer.

  • ThinkMotion™, a real-time wireless transcoder
  • ThinkAccess, a wireless e-mail solution
  • ThinkFetch, a short messaging solution

In addition, operators will have flexibility with regard to content, networks, mobile devices, brand and even business model.

Members of the ThinkWAVES program will be placed in an appropriate marketing channel for the ThinkConnect wireless portal. According to the company, members will have exposure to wireless users that spend an average of four to five times longer on the wireless Internet than other mobile users, increasing the advertising revenue capabilities.

ThinkersGroup also intends to enhance the wireless Internet experience by way of a new technology to deliver richer graphics to wireless devices.

The process known as Graphical Transimaging™ transforms Web based graphics into a format acceptable to virtually any wireless device "on the fly," the company said.

With the growing interest in Web browsing and location-based services that will demand image content, and detailed graphical maps, respectively, ThinkersGroup technology could be of service to wireless service providers seeking to offer value-added services requiring rich graphical images.
