GetFugu issued an interview today with Rich Jenkins, the Company's Co-Founder, available on the Company's website, outlining GetFugu's initial strategy to address the millions of iPhone users with GetFugu's revolutionary application. "We now have what advertisers have always wanted, the ability to hold a one-on-one conversation with consumers," Jenkins said. "There are 360 million brands in the world and we are signing them up as fast as we can. With GetFugu, you can take a photo of a logo on your sneaker, or a store window, and it'll take you wherever the company wants you to go, whether it's to its website or to a coupon. Or you can access the brand by voice, saying 'Coca Cola,' and it'll take you right there. The third dimension is hotspotting where once you go into one of these brands, you see a pair of Gap jeans you like on the video, you press the screen on the pair of jeans you like and it gives you the ability to buy those jeans, pay for it, select the color and size and 3 days later you have it in your home."
