Last week, we celebrated Bobsled Calling Day – a day dedicated to our favorite IP calling app from T-Mobile and Vivox. While we all enjoyed the burst of pink from cake to clothing, and even more so the chance to see our very own Bob Bowles posing in his best Bobled mascot outfit, there was a greater purpose behind the fun and frivolity.
It’s hard to believe, but it’s coming up on a year since we first launched Bobsled in April 2011. A lot has changed since then. Bobsled has evolved from the world’s first free one-click voice chat application for Facebook to a robust cross-platform, multi-device IP calling service. Now everyone gets it, especially when they want to talk with friends on Facebook or make international calls. People love the service and value it provides and understand how Bobsled is changing the way we communicate.
We thought it important to spend some quality time with Bobsled in our offices, on-boarding our newbies, to ensure everyone is familiar with the service, using the mobile apps, and enjoying the free calling. Our efforts were met with success as we identified areas for refinement and added some new feature requests to make the experience even more user friendly.
As we look ahead to another year of innovation with Bobsled, we hope you’ll jump on for the ride. And no, we won’t make you wear a fuzzy pink onesie, but you just may want to.
