It's Official! 4INFO & Gannett (USA TODAY) Deal Announced Today

What a fun couple of months it has been. I'm very pleased to be able to publicly announce that Gannett (USA TODAY) is making a minority investment in us and that we have signed a major distribution agreement to integrate 4INFO mobile search with Gannett's media properties like USA TODAY. The press release is here. 4INFO's blog post is here.

I want to say thank you to all the 4INFO users out there that have helped us grow from a little start-up in our living room to where we are today. Also, thanks to all my family and friends that have put up with me and my crazy work schedule for the last year and half. More soon, this is only the beginning of the journey!
