WASHINGTON, Aug. 7, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- FierceMarkets (www.fiercemarkets.com) today announced that Antony Bruno has been named editor of FierceMobileContent (www.fiercemobilecontent.com). Bruno will be covering all aspects of mobile content and entertainment in his new role, as the publication continues to gain momentum delivering daily news to its subscription base. The publication is a must-read daily briefing for executives, investors and other insiders involved in mobile content, including mobile gaming, mobile marketing, mobile video and ringtones.
With more than ten years' experience writing on mobile content and entertainment, Bruno started his digital career at RCR Wireless News where he spearheaded the publication's wireless Internet coverage beginning in 1996. He is currently the digital/mobile correspondent for Billboard Magazine where he writes a weekly column as well as produces the annual Billboard MECCA mobile entertainment conference. Prior to his time at Billboard, he served as assistant vice president of wireless Internet development at CTIA, where he helped establish the organization's Wireless Internet Caucus and lead executive strategy meetings with carriers, content developers, technology enablers and others as mobile content became a more central focus of the industry.
"Antony definitely has his finger on the pulse of mobile content and has been at the center of its development since the beginning," said Jeff Giesea, president of FierceMarkets. "With the increase in mobile content and entertainment as the central focus of carrier's strategy, FieceMobileContent continues to establish itself as a daily tool that executives turn to for expert opinion, and Antony serves that role well."
FierceMobileContent launched in January 2006, reaching a milestone of more than 10,000 subscribers in less than four months. It continues to gain momentum as a dependable and reliable news source to all members of the mobile content value chain. Brian Dolan will continue to be editor of FierceWireless.
"FierceMarkets is doing a fantastic job of covering the areas of technology that have a daily impact on the industry and I am looking forward to jumping in and lending my own perspective to the mobile content arena," Bruno said. "FierceMobileContent is a key voice in today's marketplace and we will continue to provide the best, quality reporting to those who need it most."
