BeeSmart teams with Icareus for social TV apps

Slovenia-based middleware provider BeeSmart has teamed up with Finland-based Icareus to offer new Facebook and Twitter applications as part of the BeeSmart Platform.

Icareus, which offers a range of products for interactive TV content and interactive TV software tools, developed specific Facebook and Twitter applications for BeeSmart middleware, allowing TV viewers to share information about content via social networks.

“We welcome Icareus in the BeeSmart community of development partners. With their addition, BeeSmart middleware is even more appealing for end-users and operators, which is something that both companies are striving for,” said Marko Hiti, chief technology officer of BeeSmart.
