Everypath is taking a leadership position on the wireless web by initiating alliances with industry leaders in order to build the complex infrastructure of content, storage, hosting, advertising, and cutting-edge technology that will enable the development of compelling applications on the wireless web.
"Today, with the launch of the Everypath service, practical, useful content is finally available for wireless users, and we are proving that this content can be translated from existing websites very rapidly, while still maintaining the integrity and security of the underlying data," said Venktesh Shukla, CEO of Everypath. "With these alliances, we are preparing for extremely rapid growth and giving a glimpse of the wireless future we intend to build. We're engaging the partnerships that can provide the sophisticated technology backbone needed to deliver the next generation of wireless web services."
