publishflow goes mobile

We have had a number of requests from clients for a mobile application that would allow them to access the full publishflow service while on the go. Up until now, our customers have been able to receive service notifications on their smartphones via email or sms, but for those who have come to rely upon the service they required more.

So the dev team here at Kontexto got busy and developed a mobile app for the publishflow competitor headline monitoring service. There are two versions of the application. The first is a web app, available to customers now and accessible by any smartphone (i.e. iphone, android, palm pre, new blackberries) with an HTML5 compliant browser. The second version will be available in the Apple App Store in the next couple of weeks (we are waiting for approval).

New publishflow office in London, UK

We finally made the move to a new office in London, UK located in "Silicon Roundabout".

publishflow is located at Sophia House, 76/80 City Road, London, EC1Y 2EQ to be exact.

This area is quickly becoming the destination of choice for tech companies in London and all of the associated businesses that work with them.

I have to thank Angus Bankes for helping us find a home for publishflow at this location in London. Lots of great people and ideas floating around the building.
