New Web and Mobile Translation Engine
As a global site we have worked hard to provide the Wadja service in as many languages as possible, and our Wadja Moderators have done a great job in translating the service and user interface. For this we are eternally thankful to all our great Wadja Moderators, who volunteer their time to make Wadja better for all users. Today the translation engine has had a nice little redesign in features and functionality. All Wadja Moderators can now turn on our TRANSLATION EDITING service to begin viewing text, content, and links from the user interface, that needs to be adapted to their local language. The great part of the translation engine is that it covers not only the web site interface but also our new mobile interface, email messages... (more...)

We immediately went to work to find out what was happening, troubleshooting all possibilities from technical glitches to routing problems, with no answer explaining the lack of delivery. Our only conclusion, after extensive testing, was that M-Tel began, suddenly and without cause, blocking sms with the word Wadja in it. Now that alone was an interesting move from a smaller operator (I believe they are a third tier player in the region), but what struck me as even more interesting was the news that M-Tel and a small local ad player Out There Media struck...

New Mobile Site Live!
We are happy to announce that our new Wadja mobile site is live and working great. You can visit the moble version of wadja from any mobile device web browser by going to http://m.wadja.com. We recommend Opera Mini (http://m.opera.com) if you do not already have a good web browser residing on your handset. The mobile site has all the same great features, that you get on the standard web (PC/Notebook) interface, but optimized in design and size for any mobile handset. The site really snaps with touchscreen (iPhones/Touch devices) phones as well as keyboard/qwerty phones like your favorite Nokia, Samsung and Blackberry devices. The new interface is really great to work with and has a very natural flow. We feel confident that you... (more...)
