New Experience for Content Distributors, Celebrities, and Indie Content Creators to Share Media and Engage With Fans Live
SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 16, 2014) - DabKick, changing the way people communicate remotely, today introduces DabKick Rooms to let people watch media together in one "room," using any connected device. With Rooms, brands, celebrities, and content creators have a new way to engage with fans and followers by setting up a Room to share and enjoy content and interact via chat and voice, live.
Existing channels like YouTube and others provide distribution, but deliver a siloed experience that's not ideal for real-time engagement and interaction with fans. DabKick Rooms introduces an experience that mirrors a physical hangout or an auditorium-like setting, enabling content creators to participate in a discussion and to receive feedback while their media is being watched.
Rooms is available for iOS devices on the Apple iTunes Store here.
"It's our mission to change the way people communicate with each other remotely, and with Rooms, we're introducing new ways for groups to engage with each other, and with content creators, interacting without interrupting their viewing experience," said Balaji Krishnan, founder and CEO, DabKick. "Rooms represents a new experience for one-to-many communications, and opens up new fan engagement experiences that weren't possible before. We're excited to see how content creators harness the power of this new channel, and we expect to be sharing much more exciting news very soon."
DabKick Rooms targets 3 broad categories at launch:
Previously DabKick had offered a one-to-one experience that allowed two people to watch media together and interact live, sharing photos, movies and music while chatting and talking as if they were together in real life.
