Wibiya has just been acquired by Conduit. Conduit is the worlds biggest network or web and mobile publishers all around creating toolbars. Wibiya has been developing a very popular toolbar product for some time now, so it was only a matter of time before they were acquired by conduit.
Terms of the deal weren’t disclosed and neither have their plans on both products for the future.
If I was looking to use the Wibiya toolbar I wouldnt start using it now as it could get merged into conduit at any time.
