Waterloo, Canada – BlackBerry smartphone maker Research in
Motion (RIM) (NASD: RIMM) has acquired Montreal-based Tungle, the developer of a social
calendar platform.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
"We’re
really excited about this. We know there isn’t an industry more exciting than
the smartphone and tablet markets. And RIM is a dominant player in this space,"
Tungle founder and CEO Marc Gingras wrote on the company’s blog.
"Our plan
today is what it has always been — for Tungle to become integrated with your
daily activities and be ubiquitous within the applications you’re already
using. When you think scheduling, Tungle should be at your fingertips."
