Re: Tango - 9th largest mobile VC funding in last 15 years $280m is a lotta loot for Tango - the WhatsApp effect I guess.

Interesting bunch of investors.

Has anyone here used it? I just downloaded it. Seems friendly enough, if I can find the time for another social networking app.

Re: Tango - 9th largest mobile VC funding in last 15 years Wow. So I guess the lesson is that funding is not necessarily an indicator of success. But, it should give us some pretty clear ideas about what companies are acquisition targets or IPO hopefuls.

Tango - 9th largest mobile VC funding in last 15 years Rutberg says 9th largest mobile VC funding in last 15 years. Uber's round was ranked 12th. Clearwire (RIP) is still number 1 with $900M in 2006.

Games + Social + Enterprise Mobile games, social and enterprise take the cake again.

As a side note, Whisper is a pretty creepy and sad little social network...
