Akoo Integrates Social TV at Shopping Malls and Universities with Facebook and Twitter.

Akoo, a social television network delivering entertainment programming to more than 90 million consumers each month in the nation’s largest shopping malls and universities, today announced that it has integrated new location-based features on its mobile app with Facebook and Twitter.

“Extending the Akoo experience to 90 million consumers’ social networks increases our network’s reach and impact exponentially.”

Akoo’s free mobile app, available at myakoo.com, currently enables millions of consumers to search and request on-demand content across thousands of big-screen HDTVs that deliver Akoo programming within the largest, most highly trafficked food court seating environments of 181 large malls and universities in 62 top DMAs. Viewers can also interact with the network to receive mobile coupons from participating advertisers and access location-based services.

Akoo’s new social media feature allows users to automatically post and share Akoo discovered content and information, as well as their location, on Facebook and Twitter. Additional value-added features bridging Akoo malls and universities with users’ extended social networks will also be introduced.

“This Facebook and Twitter integration is yet another example of how Akoo social television combines the power of place-based media, mobile, and social in a way that truly engages and connects consumers on the largest scale,” said Akoo CEO Niko Drakoulis. “Extending the Akoo experience to 90 million consumers’ social networks increases our network’s reach and impact exponentially.”
