Qikking over wifi is a pretty neat experience; on a good network, your Qik videos will appear as live as possible, with as little as half a second delay from your cell phone to the web.
So we’re all truly excited today to announce the establishment of a longterm partnership between Qik and Boingo, which offers you faster wifi access from more than 85,000 hotspots around the world. Working with Boingo, we can offer all our users a better, faster Qikking experience from tens of thousands of locations globally.
Even better, Qik users can get 30 free days of Boingo Mobile by signing up here. (NOTE: Requires a credit card.) Try it for yourself and see how much easier and faster it is to Qik – and surf – with Boingo Mobile. I think you’ll appreciate the difference, and it’s an affordable $7.95 per month. (Yes, this is the price for non-US as well as US customers.)
Valentine’s Day bonus: We’re giving away THREE free year-long Boingo Mobile accounts (a $95.40 value) for the best proclamations of love on Qik. Just entitle or tag your Qik video “Boingo love” to be entered to win. We’re looking for great creativity, style, humor, and/or the most ardent declarations of love. As always, keep it clean.
