Bloomington Edge News Release
(BLOOMINGTON, IL) |Â The Bloomington Edge, a member team of the X-League indoor professional arena football league, announced today the launch of a new mobile feature within its team app, OnTheEdge, that's like a video version of Twitter. The feature allows fans to record 6-second video clips of themselves reacting to the game, so they can interact with other fans.
"This is a really cool, cutting edge feature for fans while they're watching an Edge game, whether they're attending a live game in the arena or watching a live broadband video stream from home," said Michael Mink, owner of the Bloomington Edge and Commissioner of the X-League.
Fans can access the service, developed by Stadeom, by going to "Fan Video Wall" in the menu of the team's OnTheEdge mobile app.
Jon Romm, CEO of Venuetize, said, "A great thing about this feature is that it isn't intrusive to users and doesn't require fans' non-stop attention or interaction to be really engaging and effective. Our partnership with Stadeom is just one way we're providing a truly compelling, integrated mobile offering for sports businesses that creates innovative ways to engage their fans."
"We're really excited to be launching our app with the Bloomington Edge," said Yaniv Solnik, Founder and CEO of Stadeom. "We've had huge success with this app abroad, including the Euroleague Final Four and UEFA Champions League on private focus groups, so we're looking to continue that success with sports fans in the United States."
The OnTheEdge mobile app will be available for free download by iPhone and Android users by the Bloomington Edge's season opener on March 28th. For the Edge's 2015 season, Stadeom's Fan Video Wall will only be available to iOS users.
