Definition 6, a full-service interactive marketing and eCommerce agency, launched TwitterINGO, a gaming application developed for Twitter.

The new version offers users the ability to find online target audiences faster and searches a greater amount of data with its improved high-volume analytics.

The updated dashboard delivers actionable insights about content, consumer behavior and the demographics of social networks.

Set to debut in August, the New York Addictionary will serve as an engine to increase key metrics of user engagement including page views, time spent on site, frequency of visits, viral and word-of-mouth distribution and premium ad and sponsorship inventory.
