Small Digital Voice Recorder Offers Memory Help That’s Always With You

On Your Key Ring Or Attached To Your Pocketbook, When You Leave Home, MemClickTM Leaves With You.

Marietta, GA (USA), January 16, 2013 — ExackTM LLC has launch its new high quality digital mini voice recorder, MemClickTM ( http://www.memclick.biz ). At $29.95, it fills the niche between expensive voice recorders and toys. On a key ring or attached to a pocketbook, it’s always available. Simple to use, with one finger, it can make a voice recording or playback high quality sound, at controllable levels anywhere. No need to plug it into a computer to play back. Made to be hung on a car key ring, slipped into a pocket or purse or hung on a hook beside a bed, this very small voice recorder measures only 2½ inches high, 1¼ inches wide and a ½ inch thick and weighs less than 1 oz. MemClick records up to 8 minutes and you can instantly locate notes from three folders (red, yellow and green) with lighted buttons and play them back. It can record up to 60 memos on a single battery charge that will last for weeks. The MemClick, manufactured in the USA, connects to any USB port for recharging (rechargeable battery and USB cable are included).

There are basically two types of portable voice recorders, cassette and digital. Digital voice recorders are much easier to use than cassettes, because there‘s no need to rewind them endlessly to find a particular recorded section to play back and there’s no tape to jam or wear out as with other cassette audio recorders. And MemClick records or plays without having to look at it while driving. But what good is any audio recorder, if you don’t have it with you when you need it?

The uses for MemClick are endless.
* Memory help for Alzheimer’s support, short term memory loss or stroke victims
* Make lists; shopping list, honey-do list, measurements and many more.
* On car key rings, Record driving directions; have detailed instructions all the way; On-the-go memos to yourself; Contact information.
* Never spend time in the rain again hunting for a car in a crowded parking lot. Record the row location.
* Hang it on a refrigerator as a family member locator. Each family member can leave an intended destination and return time.
* In bed, no need to hunt paper and pen, place it on a night-stand for bed-side notes, phone numbers, and ideas.
* Keep it with the TV remote to note TV ad info such as advertised product phone number and web site address.
* The MemClick makes a perfect trade show promotional give-away or gift and is also for people who have everything, but can’t remember where they left it.

To make MemClick more accessible, one accessory available is an extension/retraction cord. The cord holder clips easily with a spring-loaded clip to anything. The key ring nylon cord extends out 24″. It has a latch with an easy spring release. A split key ring is attached. It is manufactured from metal and plastic. The dimensions are (approx): 1-3/8″ wide, 2-1/4″ long and 1/2″ thick.

About Exack:
Exack is a Christian operated company based out of Marietta, GA.

The founder is a man who loves Jesus, is an avid photographer, and has an unusual fondness for garlic. Just your typical guy next door . . . who loves to invent things.

MemClick all began with the idea for an easy and quick way to remember all of those little things in life that get lost in the busyness of life. After searching the stores and trying multiple devices out there, he discovered that there wasn’t anything that really helped. So, an experienced engineer and inventor with several patents under his belt began to try to create that very thing right out of his basement. With the input of many other really smart people, MemClick was born and suddenly remembering things became a whole lot easier.

QASymphony Recruits 300 Beta Sites for qTest QA Management Application

Cloud-based software testing lets users spend less time on administration and more time finding defects.

Dublin, CA (USA), January 11, 2013 — QASymphony ( http://www.qasymphony.com ), a leading developer of Quality Management solutions, today announced it has recruited more than 300 U.S., European and Asian companies for its beta release of qTest, a cloud-based QA and software testing management application that organizes and streamlines the testing process.

qTest can be set up quickly and provides a collaborative work environment for small to growing agile teams looking for an easier way to manage requirements, design test cases, plan test execution, track defects, and generate quality-metrics reports. Moreover, qTest has tools that make the importing of test assets from other test management solutions or Excel a quick and easy process.

“Although we are thrilled with the huge interest in our beta program, we hope to encourage more testers to try out the free qTest beta so that they too can test smarter and faster,” said Vu Lam, CEO of QASymphony. “Core to the application is the belief that testers should spend more of their valuable time finding defects, and far less of their time on creating documentation and reports of those defects.”

The qTest application is ideal for growing QA teams that need to quickly organize their testing activities and document. The application can also scale up to meet the needs of larger sophisticated test teams looking to add more structure and analytics to their testing processes.

Users engaged with qTest have the option to focus on simplifying testing administration, making such activities as project set-up and test case importing, practically effortless so that testers spend less time on administration and more time finding defects.

Additionally, qTest integrates with VersionOne, Fogbugz, Jira, and Bugzilla defect trackers. qTest also integrates seamlessly with the qTrace screenshot capture and defect capture tool, which can submit bug reports directly into qTest to increase the testing team’s productivity.

qTest is projected to complete Beta testing and become available as a commercial product at the end of February 2013.

About QASymphony:
Founded in June 2011 with offices in Dublin, Calif. and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, QASymphony is a software company built to revolutionize how software is tested, adopted, and supported. We are an early stage, self-funded, software-loving team, united by a common belief that software could be better, and better tested. For more information, visit (qasymphony.com).

Guardtime Partners with Communications Agency of Thailand and CloudSec to Deliver Document Integrity Solutions in Thailand

CAT Buzz has partnered with Guardtime and CloudSec Asia to develop solutions for the Thai market to validate the integrity of electronic documents.

Bangkok | Palo Alto, CA (USA) – January 11, 2013 — CAT Buzz, a wholly owned subsidiary of CAT Telecom Public Company Limited, a government owned telecom in Thailand, has partnered with Guardtime and CloudSec Asia to develop solutions for the Thai market to validate the integrity of electronic documents.

“With the majority of today’s document exchange being electronic, it is important to have the ability to track the document’s origin as well as to ensure that the document’s contents are in its original form,” says Mr. Nuththinun Suksomphong, CEO of CAT Buzz.

“Guardtime’s solution enables our customers to have an independently verifiable tamper-evident audit trail for all the electronic documents we create, transmit and archive.”

Guardtime CEO Mike Gault added: “Dematerialization is a requirement of the day and explosion in customer interest in our electronic document solutions from all parts of the world is a testimony of that. We’re thrilled to be working together with our partners in the Thai market to enable trust for electronic documents.”

The Guardtime solution for securing electronic documents takes advantage of Keyless Signature technology to facilitate independent verification of the signatures and to ensure that the proof of integrity never expires. The solution is rapidly deployable on its own and incorporates KSI Desktop Signer for end-users and can complement existing document management systems to provide a completely transparent user experience for electronic document protection.

Most recently, Guardtime announced a partnership with the Philippine government to validate physical document integrity and with China Telecom, the largest fixed line telecommunications service provider in the People’s Republic of China, establishing China Telecom as a Keyless Signature service provider via its Tianyi 3G platform.

About CAT Buzz:
CAT Buzz is a subsidiary of CAT Telecom Public Company Limited that was established in 2007 to become the leader in the Cloud Computing business in Thailand.

CAT Telecom is the state-owned company that runs Thailand’s international telecommunications infrastructure, including its international gateways, satellite, and submarine cable networks connections. CAT Telecom Public Company Limited was formerly known as Communication Authority of Thailand and changed its name to CAT Telecom Public Company Limited in August 2003. The company was founded in 1977 and is based in Bangkok, Thailand and is fully owned by the ministry of finance of Thailand.

About CloudSecAsia:
CloudSec Asia is an international information security firm with offices in Jakarta and Bangkok. We are a research driven information Security Company that helps government and commercial organizations assess their vulnerability to a broad spectrum of technological and organizational risks, and develop customized solutions to contain and control them. Our approach is to replace traditional, manual processes and disparate point solutions to implement innovative security programs, best practices, and cutting edge information technology systems to provide holistic security solutions. Through these solutions, our customers manage emerging and evolving security risks and overcome compliance challenges.

About Guardtime:
Guardtime was founded with the goal of solving one of the biggest problems in computing: how to be sure electronic data is authentic. Guardtime’s Keyless Signatures provide proof of origin and that not a single bit has changed since a specific point in time. The verification of the signature can be done offline without reliance on keys, secrets, or the existence of a trusted third party. Guardtime’s mission is to change the world to one in which Keyless Signatures are ubiquitous and a natural part of the everyday data lifecycle, whether on disk, in transit, or in the Cloud.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), January 08, 2013 — The add-on aftermarket SmartTOP modules made by Mods4cars allow easy and convenient operation of the convertible top. They give owners the ability to raise and lower the top at slow speeds of up to 60km/h (~38mph) while adding one-touch auto-operation.

After installing the program and connecting the module, all settings can be configured with just a few mouse clicks.

Often additional features, which are developed as a result of customer feedback, make it into the product firmware after the release. The USB port makes it possible for existing customers to quickly update their modules and profit from improvements and added functionality later down the road.

Updates are provided by Mods4cars without limitations and free of charge for the lifetime of each product. Each kit comes complete with a 6ft USB cord that can be left connected and installed in an accessible spot in order to configure or update the product with a laptop without the need to gain physical access to the module itself.

About Mods4cars:
Mods4cars was founded in 2002 with the idea to add a highly demanded feature to the otherwise almost perfect Porsche Boxster: Comfort One-Touch roof operation while driving at slow speeds. The resulting product offered not only that, but also allowed quick and easy installation by just swapping out a relay box, thus leaving no traces and no permanent changes on the vehicle. The first SmartTOP roof controller was born.

The success of their first products in Germany and Europe prompted them in late 2004 to move operations to the USA, to be able to serve the American market as well as all other English speaking countries such as Australia, UK and South Africa from one central location. Their business has grown to a full-fledged international corporation with an office in Las Vegas and a full line of innovative products as well as distributors and installation partners all over the globe.

Being highly specialized in the development and distribution of aftermarket roof- and comfort controllers since 2002 allows them to offer an unsurpassed level of competence and product quality. Their main goal is optimization of each individual product to a maximum in compatibility, usability and intuitive operation. They put greatest effort into development and quality checks of all their products to achieve this goal and meet all expectations of their customers.

The extraordinary success of their products is also based on the great communication with their customers, which usually already starts for each new product during the development and prototyping phase.

New iPad App Gets Children School-Ready

January 02, 2013, 4:21 am — /EPR NETWORK/ — Parents are preparing to send their children off to school for the first time. An Australian Mother of two has developed a way to give children entering school in this technological age a head start by creating an educational iPad app.

Rebecca Monument said that she, like most parents were aware that basic literacy skills developed in the home long before a child starts school.

“I created the app because I wanted to give my children the best of every possible opportunity,” said Ms Monument. “I was worried as my kids weren’t learning the correct way to write the alphabet, that they would have to re-learn it when they started school.”

After the application was released in October this year Ms Monument approached a local teacher for feedback. Ms Tanya Burton from Whitehouse Primary School in Australia agrees that Writeforschool is a resourceful learning tool for young children, and that the app that will complement the introduction of iPads into the prep classrooms in 2013.

“The application combines many features that other similar writing applications fail to deliver, like a variety of accents and a choice of the writing fonts taught in Australian schools” Ms Burton notes. “The large number of fonts back up what is taught in the school curriculum; it not only includes letters and numbers but blends of letters.”

The idea came to Ms Monument and she began developing the iPad application Writeforschool after her children, aged five and six began taking great interest in playing the games on her iPad.

“I thought if I could make educational game for my children, they could begin to learn to write in the cursive they are taught at their school the correct way,” Ms Monument explained. “My children love the app and its exciting graphics that can be completely personalised.”

Ms Monument hopes that her application is able to help as many young children as possible get a head start for this school year.
