AppIt Ventures ties for 1st place in 2012 UCD Business Plan Competition - Published on 07/18/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
AppIt Ventures tied for first place in the University of Colorado Denver's Business Plan Competition. It was an exclusive event for student businesses, with cash prizes donated by area individuals and businesses. AppIt Ventures received the most points at the investor pitch night before going on to tie for first place in the overall competition. AppIt Ventures' goal of helping entrepreneurs and "idea guys" create custom apps extends far beyond basic development.
Denver, Colorado - AppIt Ventures, a mobile application development company tied for first place in the University of Colorado Denver's Business Plan Competition. It was an exclusive event for student businesses, with $21,500 available in cash prizes donated by area individuals and businesses. Over 50 student businesses applied to the competition, which included an investor pitch night and then public business plan presentation for the top seven finalists at the Four Seasons hotel in Downtown Denver. AppIt Ventures received the most points at the investor pitch night before going on to tie for first place in the overall competition.
"We were thrilled to win and couldn't have been happier with the results," said Jeff Macco, the Co-Founder of AppIt Ventures.
AppIt Ventures was founded by Jeff Macco and Rob Carpenter in early 2012, when the two partners met while serving as student associates on the Rutt Bridges Venture Capital Fund at the Bard Center for Entrepreneurship at the University of Colorado Denver. Both had a strong passion for technology and business. Their first product was an app called Business Plan Premier, which was used as the basis for their winning entry into the competition. It broke even in three weeks and went on to sell thousands of copies around the world; avoiding the trend that befalls 80% of apps which never break even.
"Once we realized how affordable app development could be and how many great ideas that people had for apps, we couldn't resist the desire to help other entrepreneurs turn their app ideas into reality," said Carpenter. "Small business is a critical component of job growth and we love helping people succeed."
AppIt Ventures' goal of helping entrepreneurs and "idea guys" create custom apps extends far beyond basic development. AppIt Ventures is also developing a number of processes for evaluating ideas, assisting with business development and becoming an industry leader in post-launch marketing strategies. The goal is to not only help people save money on app development, but to help clients build businesses around their apps.

Solar Power for Latest Retina Apple MacBook Pro and MacBook Air Laptops - Published on 07/18/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
QuickerTek today announced two new solar power options for Apple MacBook Pro and MacBook Air laptops. A 27 Watt and a 55 Watt Solar charger provides the "go anywhere" power that demanding users require. These two solar power systems come complete with all of the new Apple OEM Magsafe 2 cables necessary for plug and play right out of the box. Built for rugged outdoor conditions, these new solar systems use physically flexible amorphous solar panel technology.
Wichita, Kansas - After a number of long-life external battery option announcements, QuickerTek now has two new solar power options for Apple MacBook Pro and MacBook Air laptops. A 27 Watt and a 55 Watt Solar charger provides the "go anywhere" power that demanding users require. Priced at $695 and $1195 respectively, these two solar power systems come complete with all of the new Apple OEM Magsafe 2 cables necessary for plug and play right out of the box.
Works with Apple laptops:
* 11-inch MacBook Air [MD 223LL/A, MD 224LL/A]
* 13-inch MacBook Air [MD 231LL/A, MD 232LL/A]
* 13-inch MacBook Pro [MD 101LL/A, MD 102LL/A]
* 15-inch MacBook Pro [MD 103LL/A, MD 104LL/A]
* 15-inch MacBook Pro Retina display [MC 975LL/A, MC 976LL/A]
These two plug-and-play solar power options are ready to use right from the box - complete with a Magsafe 2 power cable, Apple Charger, cigarette lighter connector, as well as the QuickerTek Little Black Box rechargeable external battery product for USB charging and finally a QuickerTek tote bag to make the user's mobile experience fast and easy. Like QuickerTek's external battery products, these solar power systems also power and charge simultaneously - providing a huge benefit to MacBook users who are in and (way) out of the home and/or office.
Built for rugged outdoor conditions, these new solar systems use physically flexible amorphous solar panel technology. Unbreakable solar cells are even better suited to unpredictable outdoor environments where power is needed. Both solar systems fold down to an easily transported 13 by 7.5 inch size. Unlike rigid solar designs of the early days, these folding panels are really designed for mobile use, in the field. QuickerTek's solar power was used on a climb of Mt Everest, so it's probably rugged enough for most any charging situation. There is also built-in circuitry to bypass individual solar units, should damage occur, again providing power regardless of the situation.
These two new solar power products are also compatible with QuickerTek's extensive line of external battery products - further extending users' power options. Of course the use of Apple Magsafe power connectors mean complete compatibility with the MacBook laptops using Magsafe 2 connectors.
MacBooks can be recharged from 4 to 12 hours - depending on which MacBook model and how the computer is used during charging. Using the latest in solar technology, these solar systems even perform in low light conditions. Since they charge in lower light situations, they provide power for more hours per day than other solar products.
Product Specs:
* Power: 55 Watt
* Size: 13 x 7.27 x 1.5 inches folded
* Size: 59"x 43"x0.2 inches unfolded
* Weight: 3.69 pounds
* Part #: MFC40002
* Price: $1,195.00 USD
27 Watt
* Size: 13 x 7.27 x 3 inches folded
* Size: 47 x 25.25 x 0.2 inches unfolded
* Weight: 1.73 pounds
* Part #: MFC40001
* Price: $695.00 USD
Rick Estes, president, QuickerTek, described these solar systems as, "the ultimate means to get power in the field. No matter what you're doing, from a day-long photo shoot to an extended trip where power is either unavaialble or not reliable, our solar power systems are the answer. Just fold them up, stuff them in the tote bag and go anywhere. Our solar panels have been to Mt Everest, so I can't wait to find out where our customers go next," he said. "Nothing is worse then travelling haflway across the planet for business or work, only to discover that your destination has crummy power. If you're taking a once-in-a-lifetime trip, bring enough power - with our solar power system for your MacBook. Don't be that guy who travels to some remote island and can't bring back more than a handful of photos or even read email or web browse," he explained.
To meet the demanding needs of a variety of users, QuickerTek can also build custom cables to power devices other than just laptops - from digital cameras to external hard drives, to LED light sources. Contact QuickerTek for more details about specific needs. Like most QuickerTek products, the new MacBook Pro Solar Systems are backed with a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

Can't Say That! iPhone's Newest Asynchronous Word Game - Published on 07/18/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Seattle based Fugazo, Inc. today introduces Can�t Say That! 1.0, its latest new social word game developed for iOS devices. Can't Say That! offers an interesting mobile twist on a popular word game that allows people to test their powers of description against Facebook friends and strangers. Players take turns as "describers" and "solvers". The "describers" are limited only by their imagination and are free to create any crazy and colorful ways to describe without using certain forbidden words.
Seattle, Washington - Fugazo today is pleased to announce the launch of their latest social word game Can't Say That! on the App Store for iPhone and iPod touch. So you think you can describe the word 'baseball' to someone else? Easy, right? Try doing it without using the words "sport," "game," "run," "base," or "pitcher" as clues. Oh, and you only get 24 letters to describe it. That's exactly what Can't Say That! players have to do in this mobile twist on a popular word game that allows people to test their powers of description against Facebook friends and strangers.
The goal of Can't Say That! is simple. Players take turns as "describers" and "solvers". The "describers" are given a word and must try to creatively prompt their friends to guess the word without using certain forbidden words - for example, describing "cooking" without saying "food", "kitchen" or any other obvious descriptors.
The "solver" must then guess the word. Players' round numbers go up each time a word is successfully guessed and the score continues to rise until somebody forfeits on a word resetting the counter to zero. The "describers" are limited only by their imagination and are free to create any crazy and colorful ways to describe the thousands of people, places, objects, actions and more that the game throws at them.
"Beware Can't Say That! is incredibly addictive!" said Andrew Lum, Creative Director at Fugazo. "On our first day of focus testing, office productivity dropped to 0% because everyone couldn't stop playing the game."
One player can participate in up to 25 games with different players at any one time. Players can challenge their friends through Facebook as well as play against randomly selected strangers. If you become stumped on a word you can post screenshots to Facebook for help.
Players earn coins each time they successfully solve a word. Coins can be used to purchase a wide variety of word packs as well as power-ups to help them solve words.
Game Features:
* Play With Friends (any iPhone or iPod touch user) - Play with your Facebook friends and use inside jokes and references to create hilarious clues
* Simple and Fun Gameplay - Take turns writing clever clues and guessing words at your own convenience (No frustrating time limits)
* Text Don't Talk - Quickly and easily type in clues and words to discreetly play anywhere, anytime (no sound required)
* Lifeline Power-ups - Stuck on a word? Use a Hint, Category, or Letter power-up or post to Facebook to get help from friends
* Play Endlessly - Gain hundreds of new words every month and unlock tons of challenging, category-specific word packs
Device Requirements:
* iiPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 11.4 MB

Can�t Say That! 1.0 is $2.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. There is also a free version available, free to play ad-funded.

Sarasota, Florida - App development studio Styled Syntax recently announced the release of Bankr Personal Finance, a powerful and intuitive iPhone app that makes money management a breeze. Designed by two high-school students, Bankr makes it easy to track your spending, follow budgets, and keep tabs on your money; all in a clean and accessible interface.
Bankr Personal Finance offers a number of unique and useful features. Upon launch, Bankr will clearly display all user-added accounts, balances, and budgets, as well as larger details such as net worth. Users can quickly start populating Bankr with incomes and expenses and visually analyze their spending habits based on category, amount, and date in seconds.
Describing how Bankr is different from other financial apps in the market, co-founder and developer Janum Trivedi said, "The difference is obvious in its design.

That's why we've complemented an extensive set of features with detailed graphics and a clean and simple design. We wanted to create a financial app for everyone and we did."
The application is designed to target a broad spectrum of users. While features are streamlined to facilitate simplicity and ease of use, it is still able to meet all the financial management requirements. An average user will find Bankr extremely helpful for keeping track of daily financial transactions on-the-go.

Matchbook users get their way with latest app update - Published on 07/18/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
atchbook 1.7 is an app for saving those must-remember restaurants. Instead of letting that great new place slip away, many people keep a list of restaurants & bars in the notepad of their phone. Matchbook transforms that work into something useful by organizing it by neighborhood and on a map. Dedicated to the most requested features from their outspoken fan base, version 1.7 introduces the ability to further categorize their Matchbook list into places they want to go, and places they have been.
New York, New York - Matchbook is an app for saving those must-remember restaurants. Instead of letting that great new place slip away, many people keep a list of restaurants and bars in the notepad of their phone. Matchbook transforms that work into something useful by organizing it by neighborhood and on a map.
The app's latest update is solely dedicated to the most requested features from their outspoken fan base, particularly the ability to further categorize their Matchbook list. The growing user base has been vocal about requesting the ability to separate their list into places they want to go and places they have been.
Matchbook founder Jason Schwartz said of the update, "It's been amazing to see just how passionate our users are. This isn't just another app to them. Matchbook has become an important part of their life, and they are enthusiastic about helping us make it even better."
A design refresh and the ability to filter by cuisine rounded out the release. Let's say you are looking for an Italian restaurant in Soho that's good for a first date - Matchbook can tell you the best spots from your list, as well as the top places from everyone else.
Matchbook launched just over a year ago. Since February, the app has been serving deals for places users already have saved in Matchbook. If Livingsocial, Groupon, or GiltCity run a deal for a place they've saved, Matchbook lets them know. The click-through rates have been an order of magnitude higher than the daily deals industry average. Last month Matchbook ran their first curated list of recommended "Places to Live Young in New York City," in partnership with Evian Water.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 5.1 MB
Pricing and Availability:
Matchbook 1.7 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Lifestyle category.

Matchbook is an iPhone app to save that must-remember restaurant, bar or shop. There was a time when people would take a beautifully designed matchbook from a bar or restaurant to remember it. Today our must-remember places find their way to the notepad app of our phones. Matchbook makes that list useful. Whether you hear about a new place from a friend, blog, or by walking by it, Matchbook will help you remember it later. Copyright (C) 2012 Matchbook Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Blue Parabola Launches Free IAP Verification Service for iOS Developers - Published on 07/18/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Blue Parabola has launched Beeblex, a completely free service that allows iOS developers to securely verify in-app purchases against Apple's server directly from their apps. Beeblex provides developers with a small library that can be integrated within their apps and used to validate IAP receipts to determine their validity. The algorithm used to perform the validation uses asymmetric encryption to protect all data, and is designed to deter man-in-the-middle attacks and certificate spoofing.
Toronto, Canada - Blue Parabola, LLC has announced the launch of Beeblex, a free service that allows iOS developers to securely verify in-app purchase receipts against Apple's server without having to provision and develop their own server-side hardware or software.
Beeblex works by providing developers with a small library that can be easily integrated within their apps and, in a matter of minutes, be used to validate IAP receipts to determine their validity. The algorithm used to perform the validation uses asymmetric encryption to protect all data, and is designed to deter man-in-the-middle attacks and certificate spoofing. In addition, Beeblex keeps track of receipt identification tokens and reports duplicates to the app, helping reduce the incidence of unauthorized receipt reuse.
Beeblex's encryption mechanisms are designed to be secure, with 64-bit symmetric and 768-bit asymmetric keys, while remaining in compliance with the U.S. Department Commerce exemptions from certification and reporting of products that contain data encryption. Higher security is provided by the service as an alternative for those users who prefer it.
In recognition of the importance of IAPs to the developer community, the service is completely free, and comes with absolutely no catch whatsoever. With the exception of what is strictly required to run Beeblex, Blue Parabola does not collect any information about Beeblex's users or the users of their apps, and there are no usage limits. Blue Parabola has pledged to continuing offering the verification free of charge for as long as Beeblex is available.
Blue Parabola has also open-sourced the SDK that developers use to access Beeblex. This provides a measure of transparency, allowing the community to examine the code and provide input on possible enhancements to the security model used by the service.
Beeblex supports iOS 5.0 and higher, and is available for immediate use at Beeblex online.

Can't Say That! iPhone's Newest Social Word Game - Published on 07/18/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Fugazo today announces the launch of their latest social word game, Can't Say That! 1.0, on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. The goal of this unique new turn-based multiplayer game is simple. Players take turns trying to creatively prompt their friends to guess a word without using certain forbidden words - for example, describing cooking without saying food, kitchen or any other obvious descriptors. Players earn points each time a word is successfully guessed.
Seattle, Washington - Fugazo today announces the launch of their latest social word game, Can't Say That! 1.0, on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
So you think you can describe the word 'baseball' to someone else? Easy, right? Try doing it without using the words "sport," "game," "run," "base," or "pitcher" as clues. Oh, and you only get 24 letters to describe it. That's exactly what Can't Say That! players have to do in this mobile twist on a popular word game that allows people to test their powers of description against Facebook friends and strangers.
The goal of Can't Say That! is simple. Players take turns as "describers" and "solvers". The "describers" are given a word and must try to creatively prompt their friends to guess the word without using certain forbidden words - for example, describing "cooking" without saying "food", "kitchen" or any other obvious descriptors.
The "solver" must then guess the word. Players' round numbers go up each time a word is successfully guessed and the score continues to rise until somebody forfeits on a word resetting the counter to zero. The "describers" are limited only by their imagination and are free to create any crazy and colorful ways to describe the thousands of people, places, objects, actions and more that the game throws at them.

If you become stumped on a word you can post screenshots to Facebook for help. Players earn coins each time they successfully solve a word.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Fugazo today announces the launch of their latest social word game, Can't Say That! 1.0, on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. The goal of this unique new turn-based multiplayer game is simple. Players take turns trying to creatively prompt their friends to guess a word without using certain forbidden words - for example, describing cooking without saying food, kitchen or any other obvious descriptors. Players earn points each time a word is successfully guessed.
Seattle, Washington - Fugazo today announces the launch of their latest social word game, Can't Say That! 1.0, on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
So you think you can describe the word 'baseball' to someone else? Easy, right? Try doing it without using the words "sport," "game," "run," "base," or "pitcher" as clues. Oh, and you only get 24 letters to describe it. That's exactly what Can't Say That! players have to do in this mobile twist on a popular word game that allows people to test their powers of description against Facebook friends and strangers.
The goal of Can't Say That! is simple. Players take turns as "describers" and "solvers". The "describers" are given a word and must try to creatively prompt their friends to guess the word without using certain forbidden words - for example, describing "cooking" without saying "food", "kitchen" or any other obvious descriptors.
The "solver" must then guess the word. Players' round numbers go up each time a word is successfully guessed and the score continues to rise until somebody forfeits on a word resetting the counter to zero. The "describers" are limited only by their imagination and are free to create any crazy and colorful ways to describe the thousands of people, places, objects, actions and more that the game throws at them.
"Beware - Can't Say That! is incredibly addictive!" said Andrew Lum, Creative Director at Fugazo. "On our first day of focus testing, office productivity pretty much dropped to zero because everyone couldn't stop playing the game."

Vorble Makes Opening Gambit with Digital Board Game - Published on 07/18/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The pantheon of traditional games being reinvented for the digital age has another contender - Vorble 1.2.1 for iOS, a 3D mashup of the classic strategy chessboard genre. It is a mind game played on a spherical board without edges and the latest app for social gamers with a competitive spirit. Gamers can pitch their wits against each other online or against a series of thirteen progressively challenging artificial intelligences.
Cupertino, California - Vorble 1.2.1 for iOS, developed by UK-based MegaTree, is marketing itself as a thinking game for players who want something a little more cerebral from their apps than how quickly they can twitch their thumbs. Its simple rules can quickly lead the gamer into complex strategies, earning it plaudits from Mind Sports experts.
Gamers can pitch their wits against each other online or against a series of thirteen progressively challenging artificial intelligences (AIs), with personalities such as The Apprentice, Death and the ultimate nemesis, The Banker.
Chief Organiser of the Mind Sports Olympiad, Etan Ilfeld, said: "Vorble is a brilliant 3D strategy game that is simple to learn and provides hours of exercise for the imagination and the mind."
Alex Rix, a member of the Beijing 2008 Mind Sports Olympiad British Go Team, added: "Vorble is a simple game to learn, much fun to play and appears simple at first sight. However, it is similar to Go in that several strategies can be employed and the game is in fact highly complex and repays study. I highly recommend that you try it."
For Vorble's inventor, Stuart Fotheringham, it is the realization of a concept that could only exist because of touch-screen technology. "I had the idea for the board game without edges many years ago, a sort of chess for the 21st century, but until now the technology did not exist to achieve this. The advent of touch-based smart devices finally made it possible."
Stuart believes Vorble's appeal to both the solitary or social player make it an ideal mind game for all manner of players, from children to silver-surfers. Players also have access to Vorble online which offers access to online rivals, league tables, game stats and replays of their internet clashes.
The app comes as paid-for and free. The free version allows two-player only matches via the internet, supported by advertising, while the paid-for version offers two distinct single-player games against AIs as well as internet matches.
Vorble is currently available for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad and is localized with English, French, German, Italian and Spanish languages and is available now in the iTunes App Store.

GroupLogic's ExtremeZ-IP Enables Forward Group to Streamline Efficiency - Published on 07/18/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
GroupLogic today announces that Forward Group, a multi-channel content agency based in London, England, has deployed its ExtremeZ-IP solution to integrate Mac users into the Forward Group's Windows-based server network. By doing this, server-related delays are now significantly reduced, increasing productivity and client delivery times for Forward staff and freelancers. Installation of extremez-ip puts an end to repeated server crashes that result in lost work and business delays.
Arlington, Virginia - GroupLogic(R), the industry's leading provider of software products that unlock the power of new enterprise platforms, announced today that Forward Group, a multi-channel content agency based in London, England, has deployed its ExtremeZ-IP solution to integrate Mac users into the Forward Group's Windows-based server network. By doing this, server-related delays are now significantly reduced, which means an increase in productivity and client delivery times for Forward staff and freelancers.
"Previously, our servers would crash about once a week and be down for an hour," said Craig Taylor, Forward's IT director. "We'd restart them, and people would find that they had lost a lot of what they had been working on."
Forward's IT staff found that the software instability of the Apple OSX Server software was behind the frequent server crashes. For a savvy media firm that had staked its reputation on sharp, high-quality work and meeting client deadlines, sustaining a productive work environment was absolutely essential. The team decided to replace several OSX servers with one Windows server.
"We were looking for a much more robust file server that could condense down hardware requirements so that we didn't have to run multiple servers - and we needed reliability," Taylor says. Their only concern was how to integrate the company's many Mac users with the new Windows server. They turned to ExtremeZ-IP to circumvent any possible problems.
The IT team also considered Microsoft's SMB solutions, but they didn't offer the comprehensive services that come with ExtremeZ-IP. From simple file sharing and network access to printer server access, ExtremeZ-IP does it all, using Mac's native (and preferred) Apple Filing Protocol (AFP). "We were already aware of ExtremeZ-IP's reputation, so we went with it," says Taylor.
"Historically, creative agencies and publishing companies have favored Mac computers, especially among their production staff," said Anders Lofgren, GroupLogic vice president of marketing and product management. "However, the requirements of an enterprise network are often better suited to a Windows server. Our mission at GroupLogic over the past two decades has been to provide solutions to bridge the gap between Mac clients and Enterprise networks, including Windows servers. As a result, ExtremeZ-IP enables writers, designers and directors at dynamic agencies like Forward to focus on production and creative concerns without work loss or delays due to the IT problems that might otherwise be common in the cross-platform enterprise."
Integrating a Windows-based server into a largely-Mac-based user environment can pose a number of challenges, including problems accessing, sharing, storing, editing and printing files. By allowing Mac users to connect to the network through Apple Filing Protocol (AFP), which is preferred for a smoother Mac user experience, ExtremeZ-IP effectively circumvents typical Mac-to-Windows problems, and maintains the same seamless, efficient user experience both Mac and Windows users have come to expect.

Whilst growing up in the Mountains of Switzerland Yves was already developing a passion for aesthetics, visual design, digital arts and composition. This passion has continued throughout his life so far, which has seen him release 6 music albums under the name "Feerglas" and also become an enthusiastic and skilled photographer. In 2010, after finishing university, he began programming his first Mac applications and at the beginning of 2012 started developing iOS apps for the iTunes App Store, primarily focusing on utility apps. Yves Tscherry states a pretty clear philosophy: Keep it simple, make it work for everyone as easily as possible. Copyright (C) 2012 Yves Tscherry. All Rights Reserved.
