VGTL Puts the face in Facebook with
“Having acquired the IP and the service mark for PEEP, we intend to offer one-to-one and multi-way video conversation to the global social audience -- an audience that is looking for real-time, personal interaction. Along with mobile, social media is fast becoming one of the most efficient and engaging ways to connect brands with consumers. The introduction of a video service, one as easy to use and as interactive as PEEP, will only accelerate that trend,” states VGTel President Larry Harris, previously CEO of Ansible Mobile, a joint venture between Interpublic Group and Velti.
This announcement means even as other social media companies have begun finalizing their plans to IPO this year, Venture is the first publicly traded social media company to offer interactive video with two and multi-way chat.
“Venture plans to rapidly move the PEEP application out of beta testing and to begin monetizing it via advertising and other services. We think the m####ive reach of social media, coupled with the personal story-telling power of video chat has enormous potential. Venture looks to launch PEEP across most web and mobile platforms before the end of the year,” continues Harris.

“Consumers redeem digital offers anywhere anytime at point-of-sale via mobile devices or value cards”- THE BETTER WAY
Technological Convergence In the Digital Marketplace provides windows of opportunity. The socialization of data with sufficient bandwidth for the mobile handheld devices enables video to enhance the users experience to a personal level like never before. Constantly fueling an expanding, user base with disruptive technologies and solutions right to the local environments, while monetizing that traffic flow, is the goal.
Convergent Technologies:
“Today, we are surrounded by a multi-level convergent media world where all modes of communication and information are continually reforming to adapt to the enduring demands of technologies, "changing the way we create, consume, learn and interact with each other.
Convergence in this instance is defined as the interlinking of computing and other information technologies, media content, and communication networks that have arisen as the result of the evolution and popularization of the Internet as well as the activities, products and services that have emerged in the digital media space.
Many experts view this as simply being the tip of the iceberg, as all facets of institutional activity and social life such as business, government, art, journalism, health, and education are increasingly being carried out in these digital media spaces across a growing network of information and communication technology devices....”

Commerce:
“While "business" refers to the value-creating activities of an organization for profit, commerce means the whole system of an economy that constitutes an environment for business. The system includes legal, economic, political, social, cultural, and technological systems that are in operation in any country. Thus, commerce is a system or an environment that affects the business prospects of an economy or a nation-state. We can also define it as a second component of business which includes all activities, functions and institutions involved in transferring goods from producers to consumers.” * http://bit.ly/dQTtYJ
Experience:
“Experience as a general concept comprises knowledge of or skill in or observation of some thing or some event gained through involvement in or exposure to that thing or event. The history of the word experience aligns it closely with the concept of experiment.
The concept of experience generally refers to know-how or procedural knowledge, rather than propositional knowledge: on-the-job training rather than book-learning. Philosophers dub knowledge based on experience "empirical knowledge" or "a posteriori knowledge...".* http://bit.ly/gOVarw

Monetization may also refer to exchanging securities for currency, selling a possession, charging for something that used to be free or making money on goods or services that were previously unprofitable." * http://bit.ly/fakrvv
