Cyworld's more than 20 Million Members can now Create and Share Personal Media "muvees"
Singapore, Korea, and San Francisco (PRWEB) -- muvee Technologies Pte Ltd, the pioneer and leader in
automatic video editing, and Cyworld, South Korea's largest social
networking site, today announced a new video editing service for
Cyworld members. This new offering, which puts the power of muvee's
patented technology in the hands of Cyworld's more than 20 million
users, allows consumers to add music and unique styles to their videos
and photos and create emotionally engaging muvees to share with their
online friends and family. Cyworld users will ultimately have access to
hundreds of online editing styles, which they can use with Cyworld
credits called dotoris to automatically create muvees and then easily
display on their mini Hompy (Home Pages).
"Years before the term 'Web 2.0' was coined in the West, Korea had
already been at the forefront of what we now call social media and
virtual worlds," said Terence Swee, CEO of muvee. "muvee is proud to be
Cyworld's chosen platform provider for a service that can both satisfy
the ease of use and interactivity demands of discerning Korean internet
consumers, and match the scale of Cyworld's service level requirements.
This partnership is a strategic addition to our internet business,
which complements global partners we have in the PC and mobile space."
muvee's goal is to help people to relive and share their special
moments -- the planned, the unexpected, and everything in between.
While Cyworld members can already share their personal media in its
original form, they now have the opportunity to create something fun
and new that will add an exciting twist and change the way they can
express themselves.
A recent study by the Organization for Economic Co-Operation and
Development (OEDC) found that South Korea has the world's highest
household broadband penetration. South Korea is also known to have the
most advanced mobile cellular network in the world. This has helped the
South Korean population to become the most advanced consumers of social
networking services both online and on mobile wireless networks.
The muvee making service is available today at www.cyworld.com.
