Social Bookmarking Service, Mister Wong, Sets Out to Challenge Del.icio.us for Market Share
Mister Wong goes online with an international version.
Berlin, Germany, September 03, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Social bookmarking portal, Mister Wong, is now online in an English version: http://www.mister-wong.com. After a very successful closed-beta, Mister Wong is now contending with worldwide competitor del.icio.us.
Feedback from users and bloggers, including mashable.com, was very promising: The clean design, the features, and the fast and competent user support were several of the favorites.
Mister Wong’s previous recipe for success relies especially on the social features: Public and private groups in which bookmarks can be collected and shared, full control over individual privacy settings, an extensive profile, as well as a mobile version for cell phones, PDA, and the iPhone. The close co-operation with the community is particularly what made Mister Wong the largest social bookmarking site in Europe. Over 2.2 million bookmarks have been saved by users so far. The portal attracts over 2.5 million visitors per month.
“We’d now like to have a larger focus in the USA, UK, Canada, and Australia, where the market is highly competitive, but naturally very interesting for us. We are certain that Mister Wong will appeal to many users: Our service offers several unique features and we are continually adding more – also, of course we offer the option to import bookmarks from other portals,” says founder of Mister Wong, Kai Tietjen.
Portals of Mister Wong in German, Russian, Chinese, Spanish, and French are already successful online.

About Mister Wong
Mister Wong was founded in March 2006 by the CEO of the advertising and online agency, construktiv GmbH, Kai Tietjen. By now, over 2.2 million bookmarks have been saved by users. Mister Wong is therefore one of the most successful Web 2.0 portals in Germany and is the market leader in social bookmarking in Europe.
Social Bookmarking
Mister Wong enables the saving of favorite websites with the use of personal tags. With an individual account, one has access to their bookmarks online regardless of whether at home, university, internet café, or at work. Through the saved bookmarks of all users, a human regulated directory of websites is created, which can, in many ways, deliver better search results than the classical search engines.
