Perfect English e-mails and job applications in a few clicks - Published on 02/19/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

englishconsult is proud to introduce EmailWriter 1.0 for iOS. This is the first app that allows the user to write perfect business e-mails and job applications in English, flawlessly - simply by selecting from numerous formulations, sentence by sentence. A help for those who shouldn't, or don't want to make any mistakes in their correspondence. This tool guarantees perfect structure for e-mails and job applications, offers professional phrases & example sentences and ensures correct spelling.

Muenster, Germany - We all know what it's like; there's a quick official e-mail to be written, but the 'quick e-mail' becomes a lengthy task looking for the correct wording. Even native speakers sometimes struggle when looking for the right formulation, especially when writing more formal e-mails, such as complaints or job applications, where standard phrases are the norm. One can spend ages looking at books, surfing the internet and rummaging through their head trying to find the correct - and above all polite - phrases. Of course nobody wants to sound unprofessional or embarrass themselves.

EmailWriter offers confidence and competence in business communication; for e-mails and letters, or just as a reference tool when looking for the correct wording, grammar, etc. Simply select the topic in the table of contents, and in the shortest time the e-mail is written. To tell the truth; who could normally write a job application in under 5 minutes?

Non native English speakers need only a basic command of the English language to be able to effortlessly compose perfect English e-mails. But users don't necessarily have to write the complete e-mail with EmailWriter: advanced and native speakers will find it useful, when from time to time the right expression is missing. This tool guarantees perfect structure for e-mails and job applications, offers professional phrases & example sentences and ensures correct spelling and grammar. And inspiration - if one just can not think of the right way to say it, this collection of sample sentences will help. German speakers will find the German translations invaluable.

EmailWriter is also perfect for learning, teaching, as well as for exam preparation; writing e-mails and letters is an integral part of business English exams. In EmailWriter users will find everything they need.

From job applications to apologies, from congratulations to complaints, from reservations to reminders - with EmailWriter it's faster and better. Users profit from the infinite possibilities and flexibility offered by the numerous text blocks, which are clearly sorted into the various topics so that they can be quickly found exactly where they are needed. For each situation the right expression - in modern, credible English. No internet connection necessary for writing e-mails. The final text is forwarded to the regular e-mail program.

EmailWriter has been developed by a small group of native English speaking language experts, business English trainers & Cambridge University Language Examiners with over 15 years of experience.

Linq Up with Linquet Mini and Never Lose Anything Again - Published on 02/19/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Vancouver based Linquet today announced the launch of a crowdfunding campaign for Linquet Mini, its next generation anti-loss/anti-theft product. Linquet gives people an effortless way to keep tabs on everything important to them. Part hardware, part app and part cloud, the innovative Linquet Mini is designed to prevent the loss or theft of one's phones and valuables. During the crowdfunding campaign, company backers can reserve their Linquet Mini, risk-free, at the lowest pricing available.

Vancouver (BC) Canada - Linquet, the Internet of Things company with the mission of linking everything, today announced the launch of a crowdfunding campaign for its next generation anti-loss/anti-theft product, Linquet Mini. Part hardware, part app and part cloud, the innovative Linquet Mini is designed to prevent the loss or theft of one's phones and valuables. During the crowdfunding campaign, company backers can reserve their Linquet Mini, risk-free, at the lowest pricing available.

The first cloud-based anti-loss solution, Linquet gives people an effortless way to keep tabs on everything important to them by allowing them to 'linq' their valuables to their smartphone. Using Bluetooth technology, Linquet can be added ('linqed') to a phone via the free Linquet app. The latest addition to the Linquet family, Linquet Mini works with iOS devices and has a one year battery life, even with 24/7 use. Slightly larger than a quarter, Linquet Mini is so tiny it can easily be slipped into even the smallest wallets or attached to a passport.

As long as linqed items stay in range of the phone, it remains silent. When moved out of range, both the phone and Linquet attached to the valuable will alarm, preventing people from losing or forgetting their things. Just in case it's too noisy to hear the alarm, the time and location are updated to the cloud in real time, so people can easily retrieve their forgotten valuables later.

"Face it, we're all losers," says Pooya Kazerouni, founder of Linquet. "We all have busy lives and are constantly forgetting or losing our phone, keys, bag, wallet, pet, purse, laptop--the list goes on and on. This is exactly why we invented Linquet. With our crowdfunding campaign kicking off today we are giving people the opportunity to back the company and get early bird pricing on a unique cloud-based product every single one of us can benefit from."

Designed with a simple and intuitive user interface, Linquet works automatically. After valuables are 'linqed,' Linquet provides constant protection, all without the need to open the app or even bring out the phone.

Linquet Mini is available for early reservation for the low price of $25 including registration and shipping to the U.S. and Canada. Unlike traditional crowdfunding, Linquet will not be charging backers up-front, and will only charge credit cards once the Linquet Minis are ready to ship.

Backers who reserve Linquet Mini during the crowdfunding campaign will also receive a full year of the cloud-based service for free. For every three referrals that result in a Linquet Mini reservation, referring backers will be rewarded with a free Linquet Mini and one year of the cloud service. Special high quantity, early bird pricing is also available for select, preapproved distributors.

Linquet Mini leverages Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology and is compatible with iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, new iPad, iPad mini and new iPod touch. Once commercially available, under the Linquet HaaS (Hardware-as-a-Service) business model, Linquet Mini's will be available for free with the $29.99/year cloud service.

The first cloud-based solution on the market, Linquet is the most comprehensive and easy to use anti-loss/anti-theft solution available.

Muro - Web Platform for Social Event Photography - Published on 02/20/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Muro collates all the photos taken at an event by your guests into a single album which can be easily shared to social networks such as Facebook. Developed by Muro Labs Pty. Ltd., the app, allows you to "check in" to a nearby event, see all of the photos there, contribute, and also see what your friends are doing. Muro 1.1 has a large variety of use cases, from Weddings to Nightclubs, and has been successfully used at professional events to connect new business relationships.

Sydney, Australia - After you have a party, if you don't have an official photographer, you commonly spend the next few weeks asking your friends for all the photos they took while they were there. This is a long and painful process, and you often don't get all the photos. Even if you do have an official photographer, it's nearly impossible to capture all the moment's, and it's not particularly social.

Muro aims to solve the problem of photo fragmentation at events and has 3 main features, all of which are free of charge. The iPhone app, allows you to "check in" to a nearby event, see all of the photos there, contribute, and also see what your friends are doing (with Facebook integration). The live interactive slideshow, typically displayed on a large TV or projector is an optional extra, but one which drives more engagement, and spices up any event by displaying photos the instant they are taken. Once the event is over, the host can log in to the website and download all the images in one go, or simply just view the online album.

Muro has been part of the new Startup Incubator program, INCUBATE, which has been running throughout the summer at the University of Sydney, it is the first on campus incubator program of it's kind in the Asia/Pacific Region. INCUBATE provides the University of Sydney students, researchers and recent alumni with the exciting opportunity to realise high-potential startups on campus.

Muro has a large variety of use cases, from Weddings to Nightclubs, and has been successfully used at professional events to connect new business relationships. As well as connecting people on social media, Muro is also a great conversation starter to get people interacting with one another at your event. Perhaps you could run a Muro-powered 'Selfie Booth' or have different check points around the event where people have to take photos - the possibilities are endless.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, 4, 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3/4/5 gen) and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later

Cork, Ireland - Cyber Dog today is pleased to announce the release of HEX IT 1.1 for iPhone and iPod touch. HEX IT is 30 levels of increasing complexity of pattern making.
