Congratulations to Zango’s 225 employees in six offices in four countries around the world. For the fifth consecutive year, Washington CEO magazine has recognized Zango as one of Washington State’s Best Companies to Work For.

Today we launched the first-ever Zango widget, which provides quick and easy access to Ultimate Arcade Empire’s Extreme Racing 2 game.

Finalists for the 23rd Annual CODiE Awards were announced today and Zango.com is one of four Web sites up for the Best Video Content Aggregation Service CODiE.

Zango’s latest video for the iMediaConnection iMedia Spot was released today. Rip Warendorf, Zango’s senior vice president of sales, provides insights to advertisers trying to adapt to today’s media and reach target audiences through what we call Misfit Content.

In follow-up to Friday’s blog post entitled Fortinet’s ‘Facebook Widget’ Advisory False, Zango earlier today issued a formal press release confirming that the company had no involvement with the “Secret Crush” Facebook widget.

Fortinet’s so-called “Advisory,” issued Wednesday with the attention-seeking headline “Facebook Widget Installing Spyware,” is completely false as it relates to Zango. A thorough investigation by Zango security personnel reveals no silent or surreptitious installation of any software, much less any “spyware,” by or in connection with the “Secret Crush” widget. Zango has attempted in multiple ways to communicate with Fortinet, all of which have been substantively unsuccessful. The Secret Crush widget is not affiliated with Zango.

As part of its efforts to advance the business of interactive media and marketing in 2007, iMediaConnection has emphasized online video. Through the iMedia Spot, Zango is thrilled to be the latest company to share video insights with iMediaConnection’s marketing community.

The mantra Content is still King is now more relevant than ever as huge dollars line up to monetize it.

Red Herring Magazine today announced the finalists for its Red Herring 100 Global 2007 Awards and Zango was selected as one of the 200 private technology companies up for this first-time award.
