BNDWGN, a new app from the makers of free texting service HeyWire, is launching what's being called a "content messenger" service. The app is a combination of private friend-to-friend(s) chat and social media aggregation. Using BNDWGN, you can combine various streams from sites like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram into an interest-focused group which can be as narrowly defined as "Lady Gaga" or as broadly defined as "Tech." And because you're the creator of these content channels called "BNDWGNs" (say: "bandwagons"), the streams you include can extend beyond the official social media presences for the topic at hand. You can include any other things you want in these streams, like Facebook fan pages, Twitter users who share your interests, Instagram hashtags, and more.Latest Blog Entries
