Thumbplay? Is that a game?

September 25, 2008

Nope. Thumbplay is not a game (I did think “one, two, three, four, I declare a thumb war.” Then I Googled thumb war and found Thumb Wars!)

Thumbplay is a company that aggregates, promotes, and delivers mobile content directly to members via Thumbplay.com. The site offers music, ringtones, videos, games and graphics through a membership-based, community experience. Kind of like TinyPic.

And now, TinyPic has partnered with Thumbplay so that you can upload images from TinyPic to your mobile phone.

For example, how do you get the perfect picture mobile?
