Noobis

Noobis was founded in 2007 as a development shop for social media applications. After building and launching some of the earliest applications on Facebook and MySpace, Noobis expanded to offer its services to companies based on experience and knowledge gained. Developing tools and applications for companies and non-profits to utilize the power of social media to grow their cause, Noobis has developed sites including Buffalo City Mission’s HungerHunt.com and Northern Chautauqua Community Foundation and the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation’s Amazingcounty.com. The sites have helped the organizations increase exposure and for the Buffalo City Mission grow their donor base. Through innovative products and execution, Noobis is a forward thinking group of young entrepreneur’s working to make businesses and non-profits succeed. They recently began developing Mobile Apps as the market for smart phones and apps have seen tremendous double and triple digit growth. Focusing primarily on location-based applications for the iPhone, Android, and BlackBerry platforms, the first product will be a mobile version of the company's successful Amplify program, an online treasure hunt where participants complete tasks and solve clues for points and prizes. 

"We are excited to enter this burgeoning market. As a premium social web and application developer, mobile was a natural progression for the company," stated Jon Brennan, CEO of Noobis. "Over the past year, Facebook and Twitter have experienced triple digit growth rates in mobile usage and we are seeing similar trends in all areas of the web. Fueling this growth are the mobile providers who are offering unlimited data plans at very affordable prices. Noobis intends to capitalize on this opportunity by investing in and creating a new revenue stream." Additionally Noobis has developed and introduced games played on Facebook.
