FiOS Widget Offers Real-Time Tweets and Updates
Free upgrades have been presented to Twitter and Facebook FiOS widgets, two interactive social televisions added recently by Verizon. The latest upgrades will enable subscribers to mail their own Tweets and update Facebook profile through onscreen keyboard.
The company is lifting their effort towards adding new functionalities to enhance customer experience of social networking on FiOS TV. These new features allow customers additional ways to connect with each other via the FiOS TV service.
“The Widget Bazaar”, is a new store front launched in July, along with other services such as Facebook, Twitter, ESPN, and internet video services. The “Widget Bazaar” will soon open its door to third-party developers as well through revenue sharing agreement..
Many cable providers are strongly endorsing Triple-Play packages (phone, web and TV) making it hard to compete in this industry. However, Verizon is staying on the game by continually developing features and functions for FiOS TV. Thereby, allowing consumers to choose a wide variety of entertainment option.
Primary reason for Verizon’s success is the increasing number of FiOS TV and Internet subscribers. The number of subscriptions amplified for FiOS TV service, revealed in the consistent increases in the past 2Q. Verizon gained million subscribers with its FiOS TV service. The Verizon market position is said to step-up as well with its continuous growth of subscribers. Wireless service is also expected to strengthen.
