SocalTech.com reports that Intercasting Corporation, the developers to the Rabble mobile blogging tool, have received $5.5 million in venture capital funding.
Funding came from Avalong Ventures and Masthead Venture Partners. Intercasting is developing location-based services, and will use the capital to fund business growth, product development, and marketing. The company's initial mobile service is Rabble, a blogging/social networking application that connects users using mobile phones. The company's application is currently available to Verizon Wireless mobile customers.
On Rabble's website the little orange Rabble character says, "You're still blogging from your PC? That's so last year." That sounds like they don't have plans to launch a browser based blogging tool.
