Jajah wakes up

by alec on November 19, 2007

Has anyone noticed that the Jajah PR machine seems to have suddenly come back to life?  From late May of last year, when they announced their $20 million series B financing, the company has been silent.  Now, suddenly, in the last week we have:

  1. A strategic relationship with Jangl, where Jangl taps into Jajah's global network, and pushes Jajah advertising.
  2. A new Jajah Direct product, which allows them to compete with services like TalkPlus and Mobivox.

It's good to see one of the original Voice 2.0 companies wake up again after such a prolonged silence.

A double-decade veteran of product management and marketing, he spent nine years at Microsoft where he helped launch Windows 95, the first two versions of Internet Explorer, the Universal Plug and Play initiative, the push into home markets, opt-in email marketing and what might well go down in history as the very first direct email list ever.

Alec,
A quick correction on the Jangl deal with JaJah — Jangl isn't pushing JaJah advertising. That's not how the relationship works. Jangl will control our ad inventory. We'll share more details at a later date.
Aaron Burcell, VP of Marketing, Jangl
