March 29, 2006 (Press Release) --
Seattle, WASH (March 29, 2006)---Web applications are increasingly becoming popular across the business world. They are often lower in cost and can be accessed from virtually any Internet-accessible device without installing additional software. All the necessary code resides and runs on a remote server and can be accessed with a common Internet web browser. Since the newer cellular phones and PDA's support wireless Internet access, our business operations can now be truly "mobile."
Web-based applications enjoy a significant advantage over more costly desktop software. Being server based, they are not restricted to the normal desktop software model. They can operate as they were designed, regardless of the operating system on the user's device. They do not require unique software installed on user devices, and the server securely backs up the user's data. Other benefits include collaboration and data sharing between users in real-time, and application updates are installed to the server instantaneous with little or no impact to users.
Earlier this month (March 2006) at a Microsoft-sponsored conference based in Dallas Texas, the company presented its intent to retool its Business Solutions division under a new trade name - Microsoft Dynamics. The change is targeted at the small and mid-sized business model with integrated software supporting web-based access. It pledged to offer more web-based products and modify their desktop products to work in a more collaborative manner with other online applications.
Many new web-based offerings are directly competing with the Microsoft Product line. They include products like Writely (www2.writely.com), an online word processor, and NumSum (numsum.com), an online spreadsheet program. Other web-based offerings provide data and file sharing services that go beyond the current capabilities of the Microsoft products. Flickr (www.flickr.com) allows users to store, search and share digital photos, and websites like del.icio.us (http://del.icio.us) and BackPack (backpackit.com) provide a means for users to store any type of digital media allowing dynamic collaboration with multiple users.
Other web-based applications offer high-end, multi-function products to the small to medium-sized business community. Synapse Corporate Solutions (www.synapsecs.com) offers an impressive on-line Customer Relationship Management (CRM) application. This innovative software allows businesses to securely manage their client and personnel data, access email, trend customer behavior, distribute newsletters, schedule events, and includes a variety of other managerial and trending utilities. A unique and impressive option available to its users is the ability to have the package integrated with a business or Ecommerce website designed by their partner company, Arestia Design Studios (www.arestia.com).

With the ability to access software applications over our wireless Internet connections, we find ourselves less and less bound to our office desk.
