\"\"<\/a>Nimbuzz, a mobile VoIP service and social networking services integrator,<\/a> said today that its Symbian app has been downloaded more than a million time from Nokia’s Ovi Store. In other words, Nimbuzz is benefiting handsomely from increased usage of the Ovi Store.<\/p>\n

After a rocky start, the Ovi store has founds its sea legs, so to speak. More recently, Nokia has talked about the success of its Ovi Maps application<\/a> and increased usage of the Ovi store<\/a> with over million downloads a day. Nimbuzz, I presume, is being helped by the marketing push being made by Nokia in many countries.<\/p>\n

While it’s great to see Nimbuzz pass the million downloads-mark, I would expect it to start reporting active daily sessions in the near future. Downloads, after all, are only part of the overall engagement metric on mobile platforms.<\/p>\n

Nimbuzz recently passed 15 million registered users and now is adding about million new people every month. Nimbuzz got a big boost from its iPhone application, and has also launched<\/a> an Android version. I’ve found its call-out service to be of high quality; I use it to make most of my international calls<\/a>.<\/p>\n
