Ebuddy Adds MySpace Instant Messaging

eBuddy is the global market leader and is currently experiencing enormous U.S. growth. The U.S. market represents a phenomenal opportunity for eBuddy as web and mobile messaging continue to rapidly expand there. It is the primary reason we plan to open a Silicon Valley based office before the end of 2007, and why our most recent IM network additions have been for GoogleTalk, and now, MySpace.

San Francisco, CA and Amsterdam, the Netherlands (PRWEB) August 22, 2007 -- eBuddy, the first and largest worldwide independent provider of web and mobile instant messaging, today announced the addition of MySpace IM to their already extensive list of supported IM networks. In addition to MySpace IM, supported networks include AOL, GoogleTalk, MSN and Yahoo!

Over 25 million MySpace IM users can now use eBuddy to chat with their friends from the office, school or wherever internet is available - all without having to download and install any application on their computer. Also, Apple users can now for the first time access MySpace IM through this web based service, as there currently is no MySpace IM application support for the Apple operating system.

"eBuddy is experiencing rapid growth and success by offering an aggregation of IM networks in one interface and we're excited to add MySpace to our list," states CEO and co-founder, Jan-Joost Rueb. "eBuddy is the global market leader and is currently experiencing enormous U.S. growth.

It is the primary reason we plan to open a Silicon Valley based office before the end of 2007, and why our most recent IM network additions have been for GoogleTalk, and now, MySpace."
