Meep iOS app debuts : Personal News Radio with a Social Twist

Meep: Personal News Radio with a Social Twist Debuts on iOS -- Reclaim Your Commute with Personalized Stations About Over a Million Topics; Swap Comments with Friends On-The-Go

Meep, the personal news radio app that allows users to share stories along with their own audio messages, launches for iOS. The app will be available for free for a limited time in the iTunes App Store, and will be released shortly for Android.

Meep instantly creates personal stations that play the latest stories about topics that users choose, mixed with short clips of ancillary content like music and local weather. Users simply pick a subject and start listening, without digging through podcasts or blog posts. Meep gets smarter as stories are favorited or skipped, and as friends or interests are followed.

Meep also sparks conversations about stories that friends have heard. Users can send short audio messages reacting to the story -- the eponymous Meep. Did a celebrity do something crazy? Record a custom "OMG" and send it to your friends. Did your team win big over a rival? Talk smack and Meep the story to a friend.

"Meep selects and plays content you're passionate about while you're running, driving, or simply can't look down at your phone," said Mark DiPaola, founder and CEO of Meep. "Now you can use your commute to keep up with your favorite technologies, celebrities, sports teams, companies, cities, and over a million other topics. Want a station dedicated to Asteroids and Alpacas? Presto! We won't even ask why."

Popular Meep stories are read by approved voiceover professionals who have the flexibility of logging in at their convenience to record as many or as few stories as they'd like. If you're interested in becoming a Meep voice talent, please visit http://www.meep.com/meep-voice-artists/.

For publishers, Meep offers near-instant audio recordings of written content, and offers rich analytics about story consumption -- for example, at what point in stories users tend to drop off. To learn more about publishing on Meep, please visit http://www.meep.com/publish-with-meep/.
