Press release: XING joins Yahoo! Go

• XING partners up for the European launch of Yahoo! Go 3.0

• A widget integrates XING messages into the new mobile Yahoo! service
   

Hamburg, March 5, 2008 – XING is teaming up with Yahoo! for the European launch of Yahoo! Go 3.0. Along with other popular websites including eBay, MySpace, Dopplr and Eurosport, XING will be accessible via the mobile application Yahoo! Go 3.0 and via Yahoo!’s mobile home page (

http://beta.m.yahoo.com) by means of a widget.

These flexible little applications allow users to transport Internet contents to their cellular telephones. Plans are to give XING members access to their XING messages via the Yahoo! Go service, allowing members to read or respond to messages without accessing the XING platform. Furthermore, a planned “Quick Invite” feature will enable XING members to invite their contacts to join the XING network at the click of a button. The XING widget will be available to millions of Yahoo! Go users after the official European launch in Q2 2008.

Once again, XING is rising to meet the needs of increasingly mobile Internet users. After a complete relaunch of the XING Mobile portal in August 2007, the Company introduced a mobile version of the website especially for the Apple iPhone. At the end of 2007, XING teamed up with T-Mobile to offer web'n'walk users direct access to their XING contacts and messages via widget technology.
