PixSense-Powered Social Media Site Surpasses One Million Unique Visitors
With PixSense PSP platform, China-Based User-Generated Content and Entertainment Site, Paiker, Crosses One Millionth Unique Visitor Mark in Less Than One Month
Santa Clara, CA – September 3, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) – PixSense announced today that Paiker, a user-generated content and entertainment site in China, crossed a landmark one million unique visits only one month after the launch of its beta website, which incorporates PixSense's PSP (preserve, share, publish) technology. PixSense launched its PSP platform under Paiker.cn on August 1st 2008 as the first portal in China to enable preservation, sharing and publishing of high quality media from mobile phones.
Paiker uses PixSense's mobile technology to allow users instant sharing of full resolution mobile photos and mobile videos, from phone-to-phone, phone-to-web or web-to-phone. In addition, PixSense's patent-pending Bio-Compression(TM) technology reduces the size of Paiker users' mobile media by up to 90% without compromising media quality, allowing for fast and cost efficient uploads. As 3G data services are still limited in China, this compression technology allows users to upload mobile media faster and more cost-effectively.
The popularity of Paiker is fueled by the PixSense technology that enables users to post mobile phone photos and mobile videos directly to the Paiker.cn website and easily share the media with family and friends. Users can also publish uploaded content to a variety of social networking communities and media portals, including Sina Blog, Sohu Blog, MySpace China, YouTube and other popular web destinations in China.
"We're very excited about the tremendous user uptake that Paiker has seen, utilizing PixSense's PSP Platform, in a rapid-growth market like China," said R. Paul Singh, president and CEO of PixSense. "Over one million unique visitors to the Paiker site in such a short timeframe proves there is a great demand for easy and powerful mobile user-generated content sharing technology and that the PixSense PSP Platform successfully meets that demand."
The Paiker service currently supports popular handsets from a variety of device manufacturers including Motorola, Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, HTC.
