iGiki, an established leader in iPhone applications, announces the launch of iGiki Apps, an all-new service offering a collection of tools transforming the way the world creates iPhone applications. Empowering non-technical people to plan, develop, and market iPhone applications on the Apple App Store while reducing costs and eliminating errors.

New York, NY — iGiki announces the launch of iGiki Apps, an all-new service offering a collection of tools transforming the way the world creates iPhone applications. iGiki Apps empowers non-technical people to plan, develop, and market iPhone applications on the Apple App Store while reducing costs and eliminating errors. At launch iGiki Apps will offer 3 core products; the Apps Maps System, an iPhone Professionals Marketplace, and an iPhone Knowledge database. More information is available on http://igikiapps.com.

The primary product offering is Apps Maps, a creative environment to envision iPhone applications and create concepts. Non-technical people can quickly and simply create concepts, share them with others, and have professionals bring the concepts to life. Technical people can use Apps Maps to their advantage as well, by planning out applications before designing and coding. Simple to understand knowledge on iPhone applications is built right into Apps Maps.

Apps Maps includes hundreds of iPhone user interface and programming elements to allow in-depth concepts of iPhone applications (http://igikiapps.com) to be created. In addition elements can be uploaded from a user’s computer or from a website allowing for endless possibilities.

Apps Maps includes dozens of iPhone Native App templates, which are for applications distributed through the Apple App Store and iPhone Web App templates, which are for applications made available on a website.

Application concepts can be edited in Apps Maps. Concepts can also be posted to someone’s personal and secure Apps Maps Gallery on the web for sharing and working with colleagues, developers, or others. Concepts can be exported to an interactive PDF for storing or emailing, or used on the iGiki Apps iPhone Marketplace.

The iPhone Marketplace is the only online professional services marketplace devoted to iPhone application development. Concepts can be created in Apps Maps (http://igikiapps.com) and shown to dedicated iPhone professionals around the world to receive accurate quotes and work with them. Finding a qualified professional is quick and easy since their portfolio of iPhone work can be quickly and visually evaluated via iGiki App’s Visual View technology.

iPhone applications represent a tremendous opportunity. Succeeding in this fast moving market requires understanding about planning an app, developing it, and marketing it. iGiki Apps provides a database of knowledge in a non-technical fashion to help people succeed.

iGiki Apps comes from iGiki, a leader in iPhone applications. A little more than a year ago, iGiki drew the attention of the iPhone community when it announced the first third party iPhone applications. iGiki realized non-technical people were interested in offering iPhone applications but lacked the ability to effectively do so; with this in mind, it set out to make available a comprehensive set of tools to allow them to make an iPhone application regardless of technical ability, budget, or experience.

“At iGiki Apps, we want to help the people that have innovative ideas for iPhone applications but do not have the resources, knowledge, or budget to bring these ideas to reality,” said E. Rose of iGiki Apps. “We expect that our comprehensive set of tools including Apps Maps will empower and inspire these people to participate in the iPhone market.”

iGiki Apps will be launching in the summer of 2008. Pricing and availability information will be announced shortly, in addition to other yet-to-be revealed features of Apps Maps. For additional information on iGiki Apps and to be notified when it launches please visit http://igikiapps.com.

External connection for top-line data centers upgraded to 120 Gigabit/sec+ & bandwidth of European ring quadrupled. Cost benefits through switch to Ethernet technology and new peerings.

Philadelphia, PA January 21, 2008 — 1&1 Internet Inc., the world’s largest web host by known servers, today completed a comprehensive extension of its wide area network (WAN). An overall bandwidth of more than 120 Gigabit/second is now available for 1&1′s top-of-the-line data centers in Europe and the United States. For the first time, 1&1 is connected directly to a large Internet Exchange point outside of Europe at Equinix in Chicago. The development means that the external connectivity of the world’s largest web host has tripled over the past twelve months.

Andreas Gauger, chairman of the board, 1&1 Internet Inc., said, “With the upgrade of our Internet bandwidth, our millions of web hosting customers in Europe and the U.S. can be sure that their content will reach Internet users worldwide even faster and more reliably. As a result of multimedia applications like video streaming, the demand for bandwidth has grown enormously over the last few years.” The data volume transmitted from 1&1′s data centers has in fact nearly doubled over the past year to 3,500 Terabytes (3.5 million Gigabytes) in January 2007, from 6,500 Terabytes in December 2007.

“The continuous upgrade of 1&1′s data network shows that despite pessimistic forecasts from some, the boundaries of Internet growth have not yet been reached,” adds Gauger.

In November, U.S. research company, Nemertes, warned in a well known study that Internet infrastructure might no longer supply the growing demands of private and business users over the next 3 to 5 years. With its latest network upgrades and further measures planned for 2008, 1&1 feels well prepared for continuously growing demand.

Over the next year, 1&1 will focus on extending its U.S. network. In Chicago, at Equinix, 1&1 is for the first time connected to a large Internet Exchange point outside of Europe. In March, 1&1 will more than double the external connectivity of its Lenexa, Kansas data center. With more than 600,000 customers, 1&1 is presently the fifth-largest web host in the U.S. market.

Besides the upgrade of its wide area network, 1&1 has also made changes to its underlying technology. Instead of SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy), now Ethernet technology – well-known from corporate and home networks – is being utilized. “Ethernet can be handled more easily, and by switching to powerful routers from U.S. based manufacturer Foundry Networks, we can even save money,” comments Andreas Gauger. 1&1 benefits from an additional cost saving potential through the network extension, as data streams can be distributed optimally through new peerings and routing alternatives.

Founded in 1988, 1&1 pioneered the ‘one-stop-shop’ approach to web solutions. Due to 1&1′s scale and technical heritage, the company can deliver an unrivaled combination of value-added services and technological expertise. 1&1 currently manages more than 7 million customer contracts, 9 million registered domains, and 81 million email accounts.

About 1&1 Internet Inc.:
1&1 Internet Inc. is a subsidiary of United Internet, a profitable public company with a market cap of $4 billion. 1&1 was founded in 1988 and hosts more than 9 million domain names, while more than 40,000 servers run on the company’s five state-of-the-art data centers. 1&1′s global community is over 7 million customer contracts strong.

MACWORLD SAN FRANCISCO—January 15, 2008—Apple® today unveiled MacBook® Air, the world’s thinnest notebook. MacBook Air measures an unprecedented 0.16-inches at its thinnest point, while its maximum height of 0.76-inches is less than the thinnest point on competing notebooks. MacBook Air has a stunning 13.3-inch LED-backlit widescreen display, a full-size and backlit keyboard, a built-in iSight® video camera for video conferencing, and a spacious trackpad with multi-touch gesture support so users can pinch, rotate and swipe. MacBook Air is powered by a 1.6 GHz or 1.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 4MB L2 cache, and includes as standard features 2GB of memory, an 80GB 1.8-inch hard drive, and the latest 802.11n Wi-Fi technology and Bluetooth 2.1.

“We’ve built the world’s thinnest notebook—without sacrificing a full-size keyboard or a full-size 13-inch display,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. “When you first see MacBook Air, it’s hard to believe it’s a high-performance notebook with a full-size keyboard and display. But it is.”

MacBook Air has a vibrant 13.3-inch LED-backlit glossy widescreen display that is energy efficient, and its spacious trackpad offers multi-touch gesture support for pinch, rotate and swipe, making it more intuitive than ever to browse and rotate photos or zoom into web pages in Safari™. MacBook Air features a full-size keyboard design in a sleek and durable aluminum enclosure. The backlit keyboard makes it ideal for dimly lit environments such as airplanes, studios or conference halls, and a built-in ambient light sensor automatically adjusts the brightness of the keys as well as the display brightness for optimal visibility.

MacBook Air delivers up to five hours of battery life for wireless productivity and includes AirPort Extreme® 802.11n Wi-Fi networking, which delivers up to five times the performance and twice the range of 802.11g*. Apple’s Migration Assistant software now enables users to quickly transfer files, applications and preferences from your old Mac® to MacBook Air right over your wireless network.

MacBook Air users can buy the companion MacBook Air SuperDrive, a compact external drive designed for MacBook Air, for just $99. The MacBook Air SuperDrive® is powered by MacBook Air’s USB port, eliminating the need to carry a separate power adapter. Many MacBook Air users will not find a need for an optical drive now that they can wirelessly rent movies from the iTunes® Store, wirelessly backup files with Time Capsule and access the optical drives on remote PCs or Macs to wirelessly install software applications on MacBook Air.

MacBook Air is powered by Intel Core 2 Duo processors running at 1.6 GHz or 1.8 GHz, and includes as standard 2GB of memory and an 80GB 1.8-inch hard drive. An optional 64GB solid state drive contains no moving parts for added durability. Every MacBook Air includes a micro-DVI port so users can connect to Apple’s gorgeous 20-inch or 23-inch Cinema Displays to extend their desktop or connect to projectors and other displays via DVI, VGA, Composite and S-video adapters. MacBook Air includes USB 2.0 for plugging in peripherals or charging an iPod® or iPhone™, a headphone jack and Apple’s acclaimed MagSafe® Power Adapter designed especially for mobile users.

Every MacBook Air comes with iLife® ‘08, the most significant update ever to Apple’s award-winning suite of digital lifestyle applications, featuring a major new version of iPhoto® and a completely reinvented iMovie®, both seamlessly integrated with the new .Mac Web Gallery for online photo and video sharing. The new MacBook Air also comes with Leopard™, the sixth major release of the world’s most advanced operating system. Leopard introduces Time Machine™, an effortless way to automatically back up everything on a Mac; a redesigned Finder that lets users quickly browse and share files between multiple Macs; Quick Look, a new way to instantly see files without opening an application; Spaces, an intuitive new feature used to create groups of applications and instantly switch between them; a brand new desktop with Stacks, a new way to easily access files from the Dock; and major enhancements to Mail and iChat®. .Mac members can use the new Back to My Mac feature to browse and access files on their home computer from a MacBook Air over the Internet while out on the road.

The new MacBook Air embodies Apple’s continuing environmental progress with its aluminum enclosure, a material highly desired by recyclers; Apple’s first mercury-free LCD display with arsenic-free glass; and brominated flame retardant-free material for the majority of circuit boards as well as PVC-free internal cables. In addition, MacBook Air consumes the least amount of power of any Mac, and its retail box, made primarily from 100 percent post-consumer recycled material, is 56 percent smaller by volume than the previously smallest MacBook packaging.

Pricing & Availability
The new MacBook Air will be shipping in two weeks through the Apple Store® (www.apple.com), Apple’s retail stores and Apple Authorized Resellers for a suggested retail price of $1,799 (US), and includes:

* 13.3-inch LED-backlit glossy widescreen display with 1280×800 resolution;

Apple ignited the personal computer revolution in the 1970s with the Apple II and reinvented the personal computer in the 1980s with the Macintosh. Today, Apple continues to lead the industry in innovation with its award-winning computers, OS X operating system and iLife and professional applications.

Reflective Solutions’ leading enterprise level performance testing software – has a new home on the net – www.stresstester.net . StressTester™ has been designed with a strong focus on ease of use, shortening testing timescales and proving a powerful and flexible analysis engine.

London, United Kingdom June 20, 2007 — StressTester™ – Reflective Solutions’ leading enterprise level performance testing software – has a new home on the net – www.stresstester.net . The London based company has recently launched the website which will provide a wide range of resources for the independently-certified easiest to use performance testing tool available.

StressTester™ was initially developed as a part of Reflective Solutions’ IT performance testing and tuning services and, from the very beginning, has been designed with a strong focus on ease of use, shortening testing timescales and proving a powerful and flexible analysis engine. The tool was such a differentiator between Reflective Solutions’ own performance services and those of its competitors that clients and partners asked to be able to license StressTester™ for their own usage.

Mr. Graham Parsons, CEO of Reflective Solutions commented: “Since making StressTester™ available for license, we already have a number of clients and partners using the tool to test their own applications, or in the case of our testing consultancy partners, to test their clients’ mission critical systems. With the new website we want to make it easier for an even wider audience to become familiar with the unique benefits that StressTester™ provides. For me personally, the greatest testimony to StressTester™’s success is not only the many FTSE and Fortune 100 companies that have successfully used it, but the response we get from partners and independent technical experts. They all agree that StressTester™’s ease of use means that significant test results are being provided within hours of installing the product. And, of course, when performance is not acceptable, StressTester™’s Resource Monitors will quickly identify the reason for the poor performance.”

Mr. Parsons also pointed out that StressTester™ is currently the only enterprise level performance testing tool that clients can download and test in full before being contacted by a sales person. The download, along with a wide range of information and access to the Reflective Solutions’ Support Portal – the full use of which is available for all download trialists – can be found on the new website.

To learn more about StressTester™, see it in action, and download a fully functioning trial copy, please visit www.stresstester.net .

Managed dedicated web hosting is for an individual or company that wants storage and bandwidth without the restrictions that you get by choosing a free web hosting service. If you have a site which you want to have more bells and whistles programmed into it, then managed dedicated hosting is the way to go.

Dedicated services give you more email addresses, sometimes up to 500 addresses. It also has storage to support basic database applications on the server side of the web host. This allows for the development of applications that enable you to store data on the server side also and have queries and other types of program and programming scripts embedded into your web-site.

But the key to these kinds of servers are the bandwidth that

Web hosting makes a Web site available on the Internet. A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own websites accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center.

Web hosting is often provided as part of a general Internet access plan; there are many free and paid providers offering these services.A customer needs to evaluate the requirements of the application to choose what kind of hosting to use. Such considerations include database server software, scripting software, and operating system. Linux-based web hosting is provided by most hosting providers. It offers a wide range of different software. A Web Content Management System is also included in the Web hosting packages. It gives the solutions of the more technical aspects to the end users.

Types of hosting
ISPs have different service fees for the web hosting depending on the size of the website. Commercial Web sites with multi pages and the customer’s registered domain name are hosted at a very wide range of prices. A single computer can hold dozens to hundreds of small Web sites, while a dedicated computer or multiple computers (from a handful to thousands) may be used for one large Web site.

Free web hosting service: Free web hosting service is free. It is sometimes advertisement-supported web hosting. As compared to paid hosting, the functionality of free hosting is extremely limited.

Shared web hosting service: In this hosting , one’s Web site is placed on the same server as many other sites. It may range from a few to hundreds or thousands. Typically, all domains may share a common pool of server resources, such as RAM and the CPU.

Reseller web hosting (www.webhostinginsider.net/reseller-web-hosting.php ): allows clients to become web hosts themselves. Resellers could function, for individual domains, under any combination of these listed types of hosting, depending on who they are affiliated with as a provider. Virtual Dedicated Server: It slices up a server into virtual servers. Each user feels like they’re on their own dedicated server, but they’re actually sharing a server with many other users.

Dedicated hosting service: In this service, the user gets his or her own Web server and gains full control over it; however, the user typically does not own the server.

Colocation web hosting service: It is similar to the dedicated web hosting service, but the user owns the server. The hosting company provides physical space that the server takes up and takes care of the server. This is the most powerful and expensive type of the web hosting service.

Clustered hosting: In this service, multiple servers host the same content for better resource utilization.

Entirely or Partially Managed
The full service of Web hosting organizations includes site design and programming as well as all e-commerce facilities. Some customers wish to use their own servers and software. In this case, all their privately owned equipment can be co-located at the ISP, which provides power, Internet access and some level of management.

Service scope
The scopes of hosting services vary widely. Webpage and small-scale file hosting is the most basic hosting service. In this hosting, File Transfer Protocol (FTP) or a Web interface are used for files uploading. The files are usually delivered to the Web “as is” or with little processing. This service is offered for free to their subscribers by many Internet service providers (ISPs). People can also obtain Web page hosting from other, alternative service providers. Web page hosting is typically free, advertisement-sponsored, or cheap.Web page hosting is generally sufficient only for personal web pages.

A more comprehensive package is required for a complex site. This package provides database support and application development platforms (e.g. PHP, Java, and ASP.NET). The customers can write or install scripts for applications like forums and content management with these facilities.SSL is also required for e-commerce.

A Web interface control panel (e.g. cPanel, Hosting Controller, Plesk or View a list of Control panels) may also be provided by the host. It manages the Web server and installing scripts as well as other services like e-mail.

Certain software or services (e.g. e-commerce) are the specialization of some hosts. Larger companies commonly use these services to outsource network infrastructure to a hosting company.

Hosting reliability and uptime Hosting uptime refers to the percentage of time the host is accessible via the internet. Many hosting providers claim ’99% or 99.9% server uptime’ but this often refers only to a server being powered on and doesn’t account for network downtime state. There may be server restarts and planned (or unplanned) maintenance in any web hosting environment.

Real downtime can potentially be larger than the percentage guaranteed by the hosting provider. Many providers tie uptime, and accessibility, into their own Service Level Agreement, or SLA. If performance goals are not met, SLAs may or may not include refunds, or reduced costs.

Akamix allows users to simultaneously browse search results and extracts relevant information from web pages.

Paris, France, June 15, 2007 — Akamix today announced a new software complement to IE and Firefox that improves the search experience with Google, Yahoo or Live. Quickly browsing search results, organizing them and finding relevant information in each page become easier with Akamix.

The Akamix navigation tool allows users to simultaneously browse search results so they can instantly and easily switch from a page to another. In addition, the information relevant to the key words is automatically extracted from each result and displayed, so users can immediately find in pages what they are looking for.

“Search engines usually give you many relevant results and it takes time to browse the links and find where is the right information in each page” said Florent Voignier, founder and CEO of Akamix. “With Akamix, you can take a quick look at each page and automatically get the content relevant to your key words”.

In addition, a panel that keeps all the search results allows users to easily organize them: Users can reorder, delete some results, create categories and save the search in a .webx file that can be shared with others.

When users open search results, Akamix makes relevant information more accessible by automatically scrolling web pages to the first occurrence of the key words.

“You can find information that you couldn’t find before, simply because you browse more links and can easily read the pertinent information in each page”, said Voignier. “Users usually don’t click on more than three results because it takes time to go to a web page and read the content. Now they can easily read ten relevant results almost at the same time”.

Akamix version 0.1 Beta can be freely downloaded in seconds on akamix.com and runs on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 2000.

About Akamix:
Akamix is a software and patent pending technology created by Natium S.A. Natium, a software company founded by Florent Voignier, has today more than 16,000 customers around the world for its office applications FlyWord and FlyCalc.
