CROWDGATHER ACQUIRES LEADING CONSUMER ELECTRONICS MEDIA REVIEW SITE ANYTHINGBUTIPOD.COM
 


Woodland Hills, CA.  November 10, 2009--- One of the leading networks of forum communities on the Internet, CrowdGather (OTCBB:CRWG), today announced that it has acquired the leading consumer electronics media player community site www.anythingbutipod.com (ABI) from EnzoTen Media, Inc.  As part of the agreement, EnzoTen Media, Inc.’s owner and ABI’s founder and editor in chief, Grahm Skee will join the CrowdGather team as a dedicated advisor to the Company’s technology oriented communities.

“Mobility and the mobile demographic are key target segments for us as we continue to expand our forum site portfolio,” said Sanjay Sabnani, CrowdGather’s Chairman and CEO.  “We are excited to have Grahm Skee join our team to help us manage and expand this category of sites.

As founder of EnzoTen Media and ABI, Grahm Skee has built the site up to a multi-million page view per month media property through his keen understanding of online community building, marketing, and search engine optimization.  Obsessed with usability and design, Grahm maintains an open dialog with top device manufactures seeking input from him and ABI’s members on their latest product launches.

“My journey with ABI has taught me that there is almost limitless potential in leveraging forums in order to build world class properties on the internet,” said Grahm Skee.  “Had I not learned of CrowdGather, I would have tried to expand my portfolio through my own efforts, but that would have taken more time and resources.  By joining forces with CrowdGather, I feel we can accomplish great things in a much more rapid timeframe, as we assist other forum owners in realizing the true potential of their communities.
