    VOCEL Gets Investment From Random House


    San Diego-based mobile phone content provider VOCEL has received an investment from Random House Ventures LLC, the investment subsidiary of publishing giant Random House.

VOCEL provides a service which provides periodic educational text messages to cell phones, and has a deal with The Princeton Review and Random House to deliver content on preparing for college to subscribers. Two other Random House imprints also announced agreements with VOCEL, including Living Language, a provider of self-study foreign language books; and Prima Games, a publisher of video game strategy guides.
