Hey guys, its good news for everybody – Today we announce the opening up of our Messenger API with the launch of Chat Buddy Developer Program (CBDP).

This initiative is expected to help brands, publishers, and independent developers get access to the 90 million Nimbuzz users from across 200+ countries. The CBDP allows developers to build chat buddies across various verticals such as Cricket, astrology, shopping, games, news, besides utilities such as ticketing, movie reviews, classifieds, etc.

To develop your own chat buddies you just have to visit the following page http://developers.nimbuzz.com and start building buddies.

Need help? To handhold the developers, trying to gain the first mover advantage on one of the biggest mobile platforms we also have provided a Manual.

Yes, it’s true. ICQ, AIM, Myspace and Hyves will no longer be accessible via Nimbuzz starting today. Why? These networks were the least used networks on Nimbuzz, which can be rightly attributed to the evolution of the chat ecosystem in the world.  This has been really tough decision for us but we had to take this call so that we can focus more of the Networks, which you guys really look forward to like Facebook Chat, Yahoo, MSN, and Gtalk.

We have been really thankful to you guys for connecting to these networks via Nimbuzz.

But the show must go on …

So here is what we are doing to make things even better for you:

• We’re offering you a 10% bonus credit to use on NimbuzzOut starting from Today. That’s 10% extra on top of the credits you want to purchase. To access the 10% bonus credit, go to http://www.nimbuzzout.com and once logged-in, use this code EXTRA10FEB (valid until end of February 2012).
