Build Your Own Global App on XIHA Life
XIHA Life Opens API for Innovative Applications; XIHA Launches Developer Program
| Source: XIHA Ltd
SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwire - January 27, 2010) - www.xihalife.com, the first truly multilingual,
cross-cultural social network to connect the people of the world, today
announced the launch of the XIHA Developer program to allow the most
innovative developers access to the APIs and facilitate embedding new
products into XIHA Life. XIHA developers will receive premium support,
including customizing API calls to their needs and help with the
integration to maximize the success of their app. Once the integration has
been finished, XIHA will actively promote new applications.
In a tightly knit and very active community like XIHA Life, it is much
easier to get noticed than it is on a giant social networking site such as
Facebook. With XIHA it is possible to reach an audience 10-100 times larger
with minimal effort. XIHA will not require app exclusivity, and will allow
for deep integration of the app into the social networking site.
"We see tons of apps on Facebook with hundreds or a few thousands users. By
utilizing XIHA's community of avid users, it would be possible to launch an
app and garner a huge base audience in any language," explained Jani Penttinen, CEO and co-founder of
XIHA Life. "We will be selecting only innovative, high quality apps that
will add value to the community, to put forth our full network support
behind these applications."
