Playmesh Tops the Charts with #1 Game on the iPhone: iFarm downloaded 1 million times in 10 days
Posted on November 30, 2009 | No CommentsYou might find this suprising, but the top social gaming companies on the iPhone are not the same ones you know of from Facebook and MySpace. Zynga, despite $54.2M in funding, has hardly made a dent on the iPhone. Neither has Playfish, which was recently bought for $300M. Playdom hasn’t done squat, either. Although “the [...] -

Nokia Buys Social Addressbook Startup Cellity For The Team
Posted on July 24, 2009 | No Comments
German mobile startup Cellity is getting acquired by Nokia. The sale price was not disclosed, but it is not likely to be more than $10 million to $20 million. About a year ago, Vodafone bought Cellity's competitor Zyb for 31.5 million Euros.
Nokia didn't actually buy the whole company, only "certain assets" and the team, which is usually code for a fire sale. Cellity had a Series A round of funding in 2007, led by Mangrove Capital Partners.

Flint, MI will hopefully soon get its own biogas facility
Posted on June 16, 2009 | No CommentsThere isn't a spot in the country that has been harder hit by the financial meltdown than Flint, MI. Forbes recently labeled Flint as the city that has the longest road to recovery too. It's bad in the birthplace of General Motors and the financial climate is bad there right now - really bad. I know this first hand. That's where I live. But the city might soon lead the nation with the country's first biogas plant. This plant will be built with the help of Swedish Biogas International and eventually help fuel the city's municipal vehicle fleet, which in turn should save the city millions of dollars. That is, if the plant ever gets built.
