Singular Software Takes its Audio/Video Sync Technology to the Cloud - Published on 04/02/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Singular Software is pleased to introduce CloudEyes, a cloud-based media synchronization technology that lets producers and contributors share and mine footage for remote video collaborations. CloudEyes, an online synchronization service based on the same multi-award winning technology that powers the popular PluralEyes and DualEyes products, automatically syncs audio and video clips for multi-camera and dual-system audio applications.

Vancouver, British Columbia - Singular Software, a developer of workflow automation applications for video production, is pleased to introduce CloudEyes, a cloud-based media synchronization technology that lets producers and contributors share and mine footage for remote video collaborations. CloudEyes, an online synchronization service based on the same multi-award winning technology that powers the popular PluralEyes and DualEyes products, automatically syncs audio and video clips for multi-camera and dual-system audio applications.

"In the past few years, the tools and devices we use to record and edit video have surged ahead in incredible ways," says Bruce Sharpe, CEO, Singular Software. "We can merge video from multiple sources, sync them automatically and create sophisticated multi-camera productions on the desktop. But until now, developers creating online applications haven't been able to combine expertise, footage or other media elements easily. CloudEyes is one-part hunting and gathering platform, one-part community mash-up engine - through which everything from planned shoots to spontaneous, crowd-sourced recordings can come together and be turned from raw footage into compelling stories."

The automatic synchronization technology of CloudEyes is used by producers thousands of times every day to create everything from wedding videos to commercials to indie films. Like Singular Software's family of post-production tools, it removes the need for timecode and clappers, and automates the most time-consuming of workflow tasks - except now, all those production benefits have moved from desktop to cloud.

CloudEyes Availability:
Developers interested in learning more about CloudEyes can find out more at the link below.

TrustR Protects Millions Of iOS Users From Security Vulnerabilities - Published on 04/02/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Launched by Rookie Systems, TrustR quickly identifies current security and privacy risks within installed iOS applications, allowing users to quickly take action based on qualified and comprehensible information. Reported security issues range from vulnerabilities due to coding, insecure sharing of user credentials or information, privacy violations, address book theft and even deliberately malicious features and attempted virus distribution.

Cupertino, California - According to Apple's Mar 2012 Keynote over 315 million iOS devices have been sold worldwide along with an inaccurately adopted notion that these post-PC devices were free from the security risks posed by their seemingly more exposed predecessors. As news of iOS security breaches and privacy issues become commonplace Rookie Systems launch TrustR, an iOS app that scans installed applications for security and privacy issues and notifies users of risks along with qualified and comprehensible information to aid resolution.

Reported security issues range from vulnerabilities due to coding, insecure sharing of user credentials or information, privacy violations, address book theft and even deliberately malicious features and attempted virus distribution. With a large amount of data stored on the average iOS device, keeping that data protected from these risks is a priority for every iOS user and TrustR connects to an ever-updating database of expert identified risks to inform users of identified problems along with proposed solutions.

TrustR has so far identified risks in 1,000s of applications including; PayPal, Skype, Path, iFileExplorer and Meeps, and similar to traditional virus scanning software on a PC TrustR offers users both peace-of-mind as well as actionable information should a security risk be found. TrustR can be installed on any iOS device to help protect it's contents and also supports jailbroken devices - where root access dramatically increases possible risks and the need to operate only trusted software.

"Most users assume that their iOS devices are 100% secure, however recent developments have highlighted a series of vulnerabilities, privacy issues and hidden malicious functionality within certain apps." commented Nicklas Wolff of Rookie Systems, creators of TrustR. "TrustR scans the installed apps on a device and identifies security and privacy risks, allowing users to take the necessary action - install an update or remove the offending app - to keep their device secure."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.2 or later
* 2.1 MB

Pricing and Availability:
TrustR 1.0.1 is $3.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Utilities category.

Auditweaver App Released for Material Tracking and Quality Managemen

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Tue Apr 3, 2012 3:01 am (PDT)



Auditweaver App Released for Material Tracking and Quality Management - Published on 04/03/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

With Auditweaver, you can connect with suppliers to collaborate on material specifications and receive automatic alert notifications when a material's item, part or file attachments have been updated. Product quality and test management is also available for sharing cross organization to effectively manage supplier performance. The auditweaver app is available for immediate download onto iPad, iPhone, and Mac.

Denver, Colorado - Audit Weaver, LLC, has released their flagship app, auditweaver, to iTunes for download. The software was developed to handle notoriously tougher communication and documentation sharing between manufacturing firms and their suppliers.

"Cross company coordination of material specifications is a manual process in mid-level enterprise and small businesses. With auditweaver, we wanted to improve material chain of custody and make collaboration with suppliers affordable to all organizations", says Mike Weaver, Founder of Audit Weaver, LLC.

Manufactured product, outsourced or produced in within the parent firm, still must maintain the proper specifications, schedule and quality. Spreading the process between multiple firms, sometime across continents, introduces new risks for all firms involved. Communication of new material part numbers, production documentation, and production quality checks become that much more cumbersome as a result.

Auditweaver brings manufacturers, distributors and suppliers together by enabling data sharing between firms. Material specifications, production schedules, and quality testing data can be easily shared in auditweaver's patent pending company circles. As an example, outsourcing company XYZ can share it's circle dashboard with contract manufacturer ABC, thus alerting ABC if a material part number has been updated or if the schedule changes. These updates are sent to all subscribers, directly to their email inbox. Conversely, contract manufacturer ABC can share it's product testing with buyer XYZ, alerting them of anomalies in real time, thus saving time and effort in the typical product quality cross-check process.

"Making material tracking software affordable to all organizations will improve the supply chain from the bottom up, augment product quality and raise the quality bar on manufactured goods world-wide" offers Mike Weaver. He goes on to say, "The goal of auditweaver is two-fold, to lower production costs of manufactured goods, and to attenuate fraud. I want to know that goods purchased for my family are of the highest quality possible."

Features:
* Company to company data sharing
* Barcoding (generate, print, and scan)
* Instant notification system (material, sample, and supplier updates)
* Product testing workflow from sample schedule to disposition
* Reporting (Certificate of Analysis, Chain of Custody, Material Specification, Material Lists, etc.)
* Material and Sample data export to XLS
* User panel with one-touch call, SMS, E-mail
* Data upload wizard
* Document repository and road-map sharing across companies
* User and Company Management Panel
* Language support for Chinese, Spanish, French, Italian, Russian, German and Portuguese

Minimum Requirements:
* iOS Version 5.0 or higher
* Mac OS X Version 10.5 Leopard or higher
* Universal Binary for PowerPC and Intel
* G4 Processor, 1GHz or faster
* 12.8 MB Hard Drive space

Money Witches First Gameplay Teaser Released

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Tue Apr 3, 2012 3:02 am (PDT)



Money Witches First Gameplay Teaser Released - Published on 04/03/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Berlin based developer, aBit Games today announces the first gameplay teaser for Money Witches, their upcoming coin themed block puzzle game for iPhone and iPad devices. The new game promises high quality dynamic graphics, intuitive drag and drop control, the basic gameplay mechanics and creative combo system. The developers are still busy adding unique elements into the game and it's planned to be available on AppStore this summer.

Berlin, Germany - aBit Games announced Money Witches for iPhone/iPad last month. Here comes the first gameplay teaser for this coin themed block puzzle game.

Although the ultimate goal of Money Witches is to create engaging multiplayer combat gameplay that can be enjoyed by a large amount of action puzzle game fans, aBit Games still needs to nail the single player gameplay first. The video shows the fundamental gameplay mechanics: player stacks a certain type of coins to exchange them into a more valuable coin. The newly created coin will drop down and if it lands on coins with the same value, there will be chained exchange and player can keep this going on and on by dragging coins around properly during the exchange. The more exchange player can chain together, the more combo score he will get.

Another interesting gameplay twist is how coins have different value and the number of coins requires for an exchange is different. To get an easy combo player doesn't have to pile up 5 coins and grab another 4, instead after he got five 1 Cent coins exchanging, all he need is a 5 Cent to keep it going.

In the video a game mode called "Infinite" is played. It's a kind of survival mode that player will get more and more incoming coins which will filled up the board and end the game eventually. But there will be no incoming coins when player has a combo going. The higher level player gets in the Infinite mode, the more score he will get from each exchanging. More game mode is in the making and aBit Games developers are sure that everyone can find his favorite game mode in Money Witches.

It's worth mentioning that the game is developed in Unity. And the team developed a 2D sprite rendering plugin called ex2D for the high quality, dynamic 2D graphics. ex2D is now one of the most popular 2D sprite engine for Unity due to its simplicity and affordable price.

Money Witches will be available on Appstore this summer. It will be a universal app for both iPhone and iPad, though the iPad version will have exclusive two player mode. Bluetooth and Wifi based versus mode will be available for both iPhone and iPad in the future updates.

aBit Games is an indie game development team founded on July, 2010. The three guys from China decided to work together as a remote team to make the game they really enjoy playing during spare time. All of the team members also work full time in the game industry for companies like Ubisoft and Yager Development. Since two members of the team live in China while the other one lives in Germany, they also need to deal with time difference and Chinese GFW on a daily basis. The team managed to overcome all the troubles and released their first game on iOS: Super Sheep Tap. It's a pretty innovative action rhythm game that sets the base of the style of their games: Cute theme, easy to pick up by everyone, but extremely challenging when player wants to get better score. Super Sheep Tap is awarded with "Excellence in Audio" in 2011 Independent Games Festival China for its innovative rhythm gameplay and nice sound design. Copyright (C) 2012 aBit Games.

Barbu 1.0.1 for iOS:  Seven-In-One, Trick-Taking Card Game

Barbu 1.0.1 for iOS: Seven-In-One, Trick-Taking Card Game - Published on 04/03/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Adikus today announces Barbu 1.0.1 for iOS, their fun seven-in-one, trick-taking card Game for one player. In the style of bridge or hearts, Barbu differs from most other card games in that each four-player hand has different rules. A complete game consists of 28 hands. During each of the player's seven deals he or she may choose one of the seven sets of rules, or contracts, available for that hand. The objective of the game is to achieve the highest total score out of the four players.

Istanbul, Turkey - Adikus today is pleased to announce Barbu 1.0.1 for iOS, their fun seven-in-one, trick-taking card Game for one player. In the style of bridge or hearts, Barbu differs from most other card games in that each four-player hand has different rules. A complete game consists of 28 hands. During each of the player's seven deals he or she may choose one of the seven sets of rules, or contracts, available for that hand. The objective of the game is to achieve the highest total score out of the four players. Featuring an advanced AI gameplay engine and luxurious casino card tables and cards, Barbu for iOS is a Universal app and displays HD graphics on all iDevices.

The Seven Contracts:
* No Tricks (also known as Misere or Nullo)
* No Hearts
* No Queens
* No King of Hearts (Barbu)
* No Last Two
* Trumps
* Dominoes or Fan Tan

According to Wikipedia, "Barbu or Le Barbu, also known as Tafferan, is a trick-taking card game similar to hearts where four players take turns leading seven different sub-games (known as contracts) over the course of 28 deals. Barbu originated in France in the early 20th century where it was especially popular with university students, and became a prominent game among French Bridge-players in the 1960s. 'Le Barbu' literally means 'The Bearded' (man), and phonetically 'The Barb' � a reference to the King of Hearts' common depiction as a bearded monarch nonchalantly stabbing himself in the head. This card is of special significance in one of the seven contracts featured in the game."

Feature Highlights:
* The game is an Universal application (iPhone, iPod and iPad)
* Excellent graphics, animation, sound effects
* On iPad both device orientations are supported
* Nice music with French motives
* Integrated sharing the results on Twitter; message includes information about place, points and screenshot of the resulting score table
* English and French localizations

Barbu uses a 52-card pack, ranking from highest to lowest A K Q J 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 in each of the four suits. The game is played by four players, with three hands played automatically by the iDevice. The card deck is randomly dealt and each player receives 13 cards. The entire game is played in clockwise order. Over the course of 28 hands, the player must declare each one of the seven contracts (five negative and two positive).

In negative contracts, there is no trump. The player who has played the card with the highest value and Trick Suit wins the trick. A player who cannot follow suit must discard a penalty card if they have any, or any other card card if they do not. Trumps and Dominoes are the only two positive contracts.

The game allows the player to input any four names, which are the players seated at the four sides of the table. Barbu automatically keeps track of each of the seven contracts for all four players in a Score Table. The speed of the animated gameplay is adjustable, and cards slide to the middle of the table, overlapping each other perfectly to allow the player to identify all four cards played. Following a trick, cards automatically go to the winner. The player's hand is arranged in two curved rows, by suit and highest card.

"Try Barbu, where the rules for each hand are always changing," stated Adalat Nasibov of Adikus. "This is one trick-taking card game that never, ever gets boring."

Language Support:
U.S. English and French

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 20.0 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Barbu 1.0.1 is $0.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. Review copies are available on request.

Winclone 3.0 for OS X - Image, Move, Resize Boot Camp Partition

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Winclone 3.0 for OS X - Image, Move, Resize Boot Camp Partition - Published on 04/03/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Twocanoes Software today announces Winclone 3 for OS X, an application that allows users to easily image, partition, and migrate the Boot Camp partition on their Mac. Apple's Boot Camp assists in the installation of Microsoft Windows operating systems on Macintosh computers. Winclone allows users to migrate data from one Boot Camp partition to another partition, hard drive, or computer with ease, or change the size of the Boot Camp partition.

Naperville, Illinois - Twocanoes Software today announces Winclone 3 for OS X, an application that allows users to easily image, partition, and migrate the Boot Camp partition on their Mac. Apple's Boot Camp assists in the installation of Microsoft Windows operating systems on Macintosh computers. Winclone allows users to migrate data from one Boot Camp partition to another partition, hard drive, or computer with ease, or change the size of the Boot Camp partition.

Simplifying many complex IT procedures, Winclone can transfer Microsoft Windows partitions from one computer to another, shrink or expand the Windows file system on a Boot Camp partition, or allow users to save their Boot Camp partition to an external hard drive for safe-keeping. Users may move the data from one Boot Camp partition to another, in order to image, or clone, the Microsoft Windows operating system. This cloning software focuses on creating an accurate image of Apple's Boot Camp partition and allows for adjustment of the partition size and location.

Feature Highlights:
* Transfer, resize, and restore Microsoft Windows Boot Camp partition files in OS X
* User-friendly interface
* Monitor file status and errors during image creation
* Saves time...no more Windows re-installs
* Consolidates disk space
* Migrate Microsoft Windows Boot Camp partitions to other computers with ease

With Winclone, users will save hours of time by not having to reinstall Windows. They can effortlessly revert to an earlier version of Windows stored on an external hard drive, transfer a Boot Camp partition to another Mac within the same processor family, create an image of Windows 7, Vista, or XP on NTFS filesystems, or resize Windows filesystems.

Before Winclone, when users wanted to transfer their files from a Boot Camp partition on one Mac to another, they had to create a Boot Camp partition on their new Mac, reinstall Windows, reinstall their applications, input all serial numbers, and restore files into Windows - a time consuming process. Winclone simplifies this process. Winclone allows Mac users to create an image of a Boot Camp partition, place it onto an external drive, plug the external drive into the new computer, and using Winclone on the new computer, restore the image onto the Boot Camp partition. Once this easy process is completed, the new computer will boot up into Windows and look identical to the Boot Camp partition from the original source.

Unlike other imaging software, Winclone is designed specifically for Boot Camp and Microsoft Windows, making it easy to use. When launching Winclone, the only partition the user will see is the Boot Camp partition. Users select the Boot Camp volume, create the image, and then restore the image to a Boot Camp partition on another Mac system. Winclone is straightforward and user-friendly for even the most non-technical users.

Winclone also gives users the option of keeping or removing memory cache files to decrease the size of the image. These caches are recreated the next time Windows is booted. During the Winclone process users can easily monitor imaging progress, and any errors that may have occurred, via the Open Console Log in the Winclone Tools Menu. After imaging, new images are automatically added to Sources in the Winclone interface. Images can also be added by dragging them to Winclone from an external drive, or by simply double clicking on the Winclone image in the Finder.

Winclone requires OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or OS X 10.7 (Lion) and Windows 7, Vista or XP (NTFS) running in a Boot Camp partition.

"Winclone will save you hours of time and effort when migrating Microsoft Windows partitions on your Mac," said Twocanoes Software's Timothy Perfitt. Let Winclone do the work for you."

System Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.6 or higher
* 3.65 MB
* Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP (NTFS), Boot Camp Partition

Pricing and Availability:
Winclone 3 is $19.99 (USD) for an Individual License (up to two computers), $99.99 for the Pro Version (unlimited computers by a single administrator), and $499.99 for a Site License (unlimited computers by any employee or contractor) and are all available through the Twocanoes website. Review copies are available on request.

Scott Lorenz today explains the rapid market increase for books on the iPhone, and how iPhone apps are a great way to bring your story to life for readers, and draw in new readers. iPhone users are always looking for new apps to download; from amusing games to useful apps worthy of showing friends and colleagues. Having an app that corresponds to your book can give readers something to keep busy as well as draw in new readers. So what better way to market your book than to create an app for it.

Plymouth, Michigan - iPhone users are always looking for new apps to download; from amusing games to useful apps worthy of showing friends and colleagues. "Having an app that corresponds to your book can give readers something to keep busy as well as draw in new readers," says Scott Lorenz of Westwind Communications. "The number of iPhone apps that are linked to books is growing at an increasingly rapid rate. The number of books available on the iTunes App Store has far exceeded the number of games available." "So what better way to market your book," says Lorenz, "than to hop on the bandwagon and create an app for it!"

Lorenz says there are many ways authors can transform their book into an app. "Your app can contain anything from an excerpt of your book to a game that corresponds with the characters in your story. Sharing an excerpt can provide readers with a preview of your story and draw them into either purchasing an audio, kindle or paperback version," says Lorenz.

"On the other hand, games can give readers the opportunity to interact with the characters they've grown to know and love from your original story. Create a game that mimics your story line in an interactive fashion or a quiz that allows readers to identify quotes from the story and assign them to the appropriate characters. Games can be especially useful for children's storybooks seeing as how children love interactive scenarios, especially with their favorite characters," according to Lorenz.

"A great example of a book being transformed into an app is one created from J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series. The Harry Potter: Spells application allows users to learn the spells that they've seen in action throughout the magical series and use them to battle with other iPhone users. Apps such as this help bring the story to life in a new way for readers and will keep your story alive in their minds long after they've finished reading," says Lorenz.

"If your book is non-fiction, there are other ways to translate it into an app. You might be interested in creating an app that emphasizes tips, key points or interesting facts from your book. For example, a popular app, Military Cadences, provides users with the words associated with the various songs and chants used in military settings. Providing this can help readers better understand the concept of your book and provide them with new information on the subject that they find interesting," adds Lorenz.

Another cutting edge iPhone App for a book is 'The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore' available for $4.99. "Even in their own description they say it 'blurs the line between picture books and animated film' and I'd have to agree," says Lorenz. "The app gets hundreds of 4 1/2 star ratings which must mean its keeping users entertained. Most children's books can be transformed into iPhone apps and are a great way for parents to keep children occupied on errands or in the car," adds Lorenz.

"Another thing to consider when deciding whether or not to create an iPhone app is that an app can be a great way to bring in a little extra revenue. You can charge a small fee for your app or offer it for free. By charging a small fee, you bring a little more money with each purchase/download. If you decide to offer your app for free, more people will download it and will be aware of your story. Regardless of which path you choose, you can expect to see an increase in sales, which is always a good thing," concludes Lorenz.

"The bottom line," says Lorenz, "iPhone apps are a great way to bring your story to life for readers as well as draw in new readers. There are many prestigious and affordable companies that can be of service if you are looking to create an app." Contact Lorenz for marketing your app when you are ready to get some downloads.

Does Twitter Know First About the Republican Presidential Nomination

Does Twitter Know First About the Republican Presidential Nomination? - Published on 04/03/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Akamoto introduces GOP Unbound 1.1, the Republican Delegate Tracker for iOS. Everyone is guessing about the true delegate numbers behind Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum, Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul for the Presidential Nominating Convention in Tampa, August 2012. Is Ron Pauls caucus delegate strategy succeeding? How many 'stealth delegates' are there? Whom do they support after the convention goes to second ballot and they become unbound? Nobody knows until we're there.

Berlin, Germany - Akamoto today is thrilled to announce its new iOS news app 'GOP Unbound 1.1' is here to speculate about the potential delegate count for the 2012 Republican US Presidential Nominating Convention in Tampa, Florida, August 27-30.

The GOP Unbound engine is currently drinking about one million tweet messages each week, following a simple pattern: counting all mentions (not only hashtags) of the four Republican candidates, consolidating and translating it into a stable delegate forecast for the second ballot of an open convention. All forecasts are done on a national as well on a state level and later recombined. For creating state specific forecasts, the GOP Unbound engine considers available location data of each tweet and tries to assign it to the correct US state.

Being an experiment primarily building on swarm intelligence and the sheer mass of available data from an incorruptible, sleepless, open and vibrant sentiment source, we are excited to watch 'GOP Unbound' predicting this race with fresh forecasts by the minute.

The 'GOP Unbound' iOS app allows viewing the latest current (covering all completed states) and final (at the convention) national forecasts plus offers a team-up mode where the user may check for the combined delegate power of a potential team up of two candidates.

Device Requirements:
* iOS 4.0 or later
* iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
* 1.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:
GOP Unbound 1.1 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the News category. The app will serve fresh forecasts by the minute until 30-Aug-2012.

AP Mobile SXSW Interactive Booth Drives Massive Foot and Web Traffic - Published on 04/03/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Associated Press hosted a booth at the 2012 SXSW Interactive conference from March 12-15. Put together by Austin-based marketing agency Space Chimp Media, the interactive booth featured a live camera which interviewed Industry professionals attending the event and streamed live on ustream.tv. During the 3 days of interviews, the AP Mobile Live ustream channel garnered over 80,000 views and was featured on the ustream homepage multiple times.

Austin, Texas - AP Mobile, the official mobile app of The Associated Press, hosted a booth at the 2012 SXSW Interactive conference from March 12-15 which garnered hundreds of fans in foot traffic, and tens of thousands over the internet. The interactive booth, put together by Austin-based marketing agency Space Chimp Media, featured a live camera which interviewed Industry professionals attending the event. The interviews were conducted by MTV personality Abram Boise, and were broadcast live on ustream.tv. During the 3 days of interviews, the AP Mobile Live ustream channel garnered over 80,000 views and was featured on the ustream homepage multiple times.

"The SXSW AP Mobile booth was a lot of work, but at the end of the day it was a huge success," said AP Mobile marketing manager, Matt Cluney. "We had a large audience at the booth at all times who were interested in our updated app, and we had a huge audience watching our interviews online. All-in-all, we drew the maximum of attraction to our booth, and our downloads increased dramatically as a result."

"There were a lot of high-profile tech companies at SXSW Interactive looking to steal the show," said Charles Haggas, Space Chimp Media cofounder. "We knew that if we were going to get AP Mobile in the spotlight and make it a considerable ROI for their app, we needed to think outside the box."

Visitors to the booth were particularly excited to see the app's new layout and features, like the "Big Stories" tab and the "My AP" customization.

The interviewees included SXSW Interactive Director Hugh Forrest, famed rock 'n' roll photographer Bob Gruen, Parlee Cycles owner Bob Parlee, Fundly CEO Dave Boyce, Internet and Social Media Strategist Staci Baird, Celebrity Stylist and Fashion Guru Lauren Rae Levy, Spacehack founder Ariel Waldmen, and others.
