VisitMobileTM Launches New LiveChat Feature for Mobile ConciergeTM Customers

Leave a comment

The only in-app tool of its kind, LiveChat lets guests chat directly with destination marketing organization via text

Boulder, Colorado, November 17, 2011 – VisitMobileTM, the premier mobile destination marketing solution provider, announces the launch of LiveChat, a two-way text chat platform allowing destination experts to communicate directly with their guests and visitors. LiveChat was designed to help guests receive a personalized high-touch destination experience, where a trusted advisor is available to help the visitor decide what to do next, make reservations or purchase tickets. Originally developed for use by traditional hotel concierge desks, LiveChat will now be offered as an optional, fully-integrated feature of VisitMobile’s Mobile Concierge destination travel smartphone app for convention and visitor bureaus (CVBs), destination marketing organizations (DMOs), and business improvement districts (BIDs).

Like nothing else in the market, LiveChat allows the destination’s staff to manage multiple guest conversations at once using the intuitive interface portal. The destination concierge can conduct the conversation with the guest on any computer with a browser or a tablet device (e.g. iPad) when they are on-the-go. The visitor can chat with the destination concierge through both the Mobile Concierge smartphone application or standard text messaging.

For the destination, LiveChat features include:

* Direct in-app integration with a Mobile Concierge smartphone application

* 10-digit number for sending text messages to users without smartphones

* Fully-compatible desktop or tablet chat portal, offering

Support for up to 12 concurrent conversations
Ability to save user profiles to portal customer database
To-Do lists with reminder alarms for individual guests
Chat notes section
Ability to send messages to groups
Compatibility with any iOS or Android App
Away/After Hours auto-responder

VisitMobile’s award-winning Mobile Concierge solution mimics a real destination concierge, delivering real-time trusted advice and insider knowledge at the in-destination visitor’s point of need. LiveChat will further enhance this experience by allowing guests to chat in real-time with true destination experts allowing users to ask questions, get advice or make reservations for restaurants through OpenTable®.

Mobile Concierge is always on hand as the guest explores the destination and is designed with GPS technology to answer their question, “I’m right here, now what should I do?” With the popularity of unofficial destination apps and mobile search engines, research shows that less than 20 percent of visitors return to the destination’s website for local information after they arrive into a destination. Mobile Concierge with LiveChat is a dream solution for DMOs, CVBs, BIDs, resorts, or any organization looking to take back control of the in-destination conversation.

“CVBs and DMOs spend tens of thousands of dollars on mass media and websites to attract guests to their destination, but they lose control of the guest’s experience once they arrive,” said VisitMobile CEO Jeff Kohn. “VisitMobile’s Mobile Concierge with LiveChat allows local authorities to continue interacting with visitors in a way that benefits the guest and maximizes revenue for a destination’s merchant partners.”

About VisitMobile
VisitMobileTM (www.visitmobile.com) is the Mobile ConciergeTM smartphone app for tourism and shopping destinations. VisitMobile serves as an on-the-go trusted advisor helping visitors discover nearby attractions, businesses, and events through a patented GPS Relevancy EngineTM. Mimicking a real concierge, VisitMobile uses expert local content and multimedia to help the visitor decide “what to do next,” make instant reservations or ticket purchases, and access insider deals. As the official Mobile Concierge of the destination, VisitMobile allows the destination marketing organization to maintain control of the conversation with the in-market visitor, and in turn maximize revenue for destination partners.

Crew Systems Adopts Guardtime Keyless Signatures to Add Tamper Evidence to Daily Reports and Accident Videos for Monitored Vehicles

Leave a comment

Crew Systems Inc, have established a strategic alliance by which Crew will adopt the GuardTime Keyless Signature Service to add tamper evidence to its daily and monthly reports and recorded video files.

Tokyo, Japan, Wednesday – November 16, 2011 — CREW SYSTEMS INC. (“Crew”), a video telematics cloud service provider, and GuardTime Japan,Inc., have established a strategic alliance by which Crew will adopt the GuardTime Keyless Signature Service to add tamper evidence to its daily and monthly reports and recorded video files as they are stored in the telematics cloud known as “HARVEST”. The HARVEST service is scheduled to be released on December 1, 2011.

HARVEST is an integrated safety driving support system which consists of a drive recorder, digital tachometer, and a real-time dynamic object management system. In HARVEST, the communication system uses built-in drive recorders mounted on vehicles to capture the behaviors of drivers, to record video images of traffic accidents as they occur, and to collect real-time information from the global positioning system (GPS). As the data is gathered, it is automatically sent to the HARVEST server in the Cloud. The server then processes, analyzes, and safely stores the data where it can automatically produce regular reports. The analysis and assessment of the data generate “safe driving” rankings. The system can also produce forensically-sound recorded video images capturing any traffic accidents that have occurred, or even recorded acts of unsafe driving.

By signing all of the digital data collected with GuardTime’s Keyless Signatures, Crew can provide proof that the data has not been tampered with in any way since it was signed, regardless of how it is transmitted to and stored in the Cloud. When submitting reports and associated video images for investigational purposes, Crew will significantly increase the reliability and credibility of the evidence with the addition of the unique GuardTime data integrity service.

Companies that own five or more vehicles for business use are required by safety driving management laws to produce daily reports on the driving habits of their employees. Systems that provide the automatic digitization of daily driving reports are increasingly used for operating efficiency. However, the integrity of the digitized and stored data has been left as a pending issue. In particular, video images capturing traffic accidents are increasing lybeing used as evidence in legal cases and for insurance claims. The admissibility of such data as evidence requires proof that the data is tamper-free.

Says Crew CEO Katsuhiko Hirayama,”The data in connection with a vehicle and a person’s safety requires high reliability and integrity. We decided to utilize GuardTime Keyless Signatures with our cloud service because it is easy to administer. The Keyless Signatures are extremely affordable in terms of integration and maintenance as compared to conventional time stamping-only or PKI-based services.”

Several thousand units of HARVEST drive recorders have been sold mainly to daycare service centers, construction companies, and logistic companies. It is expected that 10,000+ units will be sold annually to industrial waste disposal operators, companies leading reconstruction projects in disaster-stricken areas, and other enterprise organizations that own many business vehicles. This forecast holds true not only in Japan, but also within other markets overseas.

Scam Prevention Site Nears 150,000 Page View Marker

Leave a comment

Craigslistscammer.blogspot.com, a blog dedicated to helping people unmask scammers who prey on Craigslist advertisers, will surpass 150,000 page views at the end of November.

Austin, TX (USA), Wednesday – November 16, 2011 — Craigslistscammer.blogspot.com, a blog dedicated to helping people unmask scammers who prey on Craigslist advertisers, will surpass 150,000 page views at the end of November, according to its publisher Joe Gimenez.

The site receives between 400-600 visits per day from people who search the email address or other information contained in correspondence they’ve received from a person responding to their advertisement on Craigslist.

Since its inception on May 4, 2008, the blog has received 140,100 pageviews and is projected to hit 150,000 on November 29. The site has more than 3,200 comments from viewers who either confirm that a scam was attempted on them or adds information about other scams in their posts.

Typical comments might read like this one: “drjamesrobbert08@gmail.com posing as Melinda Robbert responded to a craigslist ad I posted for video tutor for daughter, sent two checks for almost $3K each, from two different addresses and two different banks, with instructions to take out my portion ($250)and send the rest by Western Union to the daughter’s nanny in Florida. I am in Maryland. So red flags went off left and right. I googled the nanny’s address and called to find no nanny at that address. Sent an email to “Melinda” and asked her to phone me. ‘She’ responded by telling me that she ‘has a little problem with her phone.’ Uh-huh . . . ”

Or this posting by a reader: “Add JohnWeb234@gmail.com to your list of scammers. The person just contacted me about sending his dog to board with me for the month of December using exactly the same MO [modus operandi] as with the tutor inquiries.”

The blog site started as Gimenez’s reaction to a scammer who was responding to his advertising a white couch for sale. The scammer said they’d send their movers to pick it up and that he was sending a check by FedEx.

When the check arrived, things started to seem a bit more fishy and then the scam really began. The check was $4,000 greater than the amount agreed upon for the couch and the scammer emailed to say that his secretary made the mistake, would Gimenez kindly deposit the check and wire the overage back to a Western Union address, less $100 for the inconvenience.

Gimenez’ reaction was “I mean really, who has a secretary these days and is looking on Craigslist for items.”

Upon further research, Gimenez found newspaper articles that described the exact same scam – the check was fraudulent, but close enough to real that his own bank would have credited his account and sent it out for delivery. Then, when the bank found, maybe two weeks later, the check to be fraudulent they would charge Gimenez’s account for the amount that he had wired out. The scammer would have received those funds and been long gone, but Gimenez would be out the money. You can read about the original scam attempt and Gimenez’ reaction here.

“Thank God I Googled something in that check that was already on the web,” Gimenez said. “And thank God so many people have responded in the same way over the years so that they might not fall for this evil trick.”

“Craigslist is very good about warning people about these sorts of scams, but few people understand why the warning is necessary or how they can be scammed. This site seeks to get the Craigslist scammers through the combined effort of thousands of people and its working,” Gimenez said.

The name of the blog is Let’s Get the Craigslist Scammers.

Kraff Eye Institute First In Illinois To Offer Laser Cataract Surgery

Leave a comment

The most commonly performed surgical procedure in the United States, cataract removal, is now being performed at the Kraff Eye Institute using the latest technological advancement; the Alcon LenSx® femtosecond bladeless laser. This latest advancement, which provides unprecedented precision to cataract surgery, is offered at Kraff Eye Institute. With the use of a multifocal lens or the correction of astigmatism there is NO additional cost to the patient for the use of the Alcon LenSx femtosecond laser.

The FIRST laser of its kind in Illinois and the only laser approved by the FDA for cataract surgery, the LenSx bladeless laser arrived in August of this year at the Harlem location of the Kraff Eye Institute.

LenSx utilizes a femtosecond laser which has been used to perform Lasik surgery since its FDA approval in 2001. By using this latest advancement of ophthalmic lasers, the surgeon and patient have an alternative to the mechanical cuts used in traditional cataract surgery while ensuring the highest-precision surgical incisions. This technology brings both safety and precision to the surgeon and the patient. (See Fact Sheet for additional details.)

Dr. Manus Kraff, the founder of the Kraff Eye Institute, has been performing cataract surgeries since the 1970’s. He now offers the LenSx laser procedure to cataract patients who meet specific criteria for the surgery. Since August of this year, Dr. Kraff has performed numerous successful cataract surgical procedures with the aid of the revolutionary Alcon LenSx femtosecond Laser.

“We are proud to offer the most advanced eye care technology in Illinois and the world to our cataract patients,” states Dr. Manus Kraff. “By adding computer control to the three steps of cataract surgery, the LenSx Laser ensures the highest-precision surgical incisions. The LenSx Laser is unquestionably the most technologically advanced option for cataract patients.

“We are thrilled to have this new technology available to us. Prior to this, cataract surgery was performed by hand with blades or needles,” he explains. “With the LenSx Laser, we are able to perform surgeries to more exacting, individualized specifications not attainable with other surgical methods. Most importantly, patients recover quickly and have great satisfaction with the outcome,” concludes Dr. Kraff.

KRAFF EYE INSTITUTE … Add One

Established in the 70’s, the Kraff Eye Institute has been one of the foremost authorities in ophthalmic eye care. Drs. Manus and Colman Kraff have pioneered surgical procedures like phacoemulsification, intraocular lens implantation, Lasik vision correction and now the LenSx Laser cataract removal. Both Dr. Kraffs have spoken at major universities and conferences worldwide on cataract and laser refractive surgery, served on numerous medical advisory panels and boards with Dr. Manus Kraff having served on the medical advisory board of the LenSx Laser Corporation since its inception.

With two offices in the city, the Kraff Eye Institute has been bringing the very best in eye care to Chicago for over 35 years. For more information about the LenSx procedure or to schedule a consultation, call: 773-777-4444. Visit kraffeye.com.
