Smartblast and Flash Drive Direct join forces to test new DigiCatalog software.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) April 27, 2008 -- Employing state-of-the-art flash technology combined with a radical new server configuration Smartblast’s DigiCatalog allows the user to load a digital flash catalog on their web site. While this is nothing new the combination of new flash script and unique server configuration allows the viewer to perform a wide range of interactive functions previously not possible.

DigiCatalog is a significant advance in technology in its interactive capabilities. The flash file can be edited on the fly, have files clipped for emailing, mutate itself into a PDF file and allow for on the fly zoom and scan functionality.

To test the new programs limits Smartblast has brought flash drive specialist Flash Drive Direct onboard to act as their beta test site for the Dig Catalog.

“We loaded the DigiCatalog 3 months ago and to date our overall results have improved by 23% during that time” states John Graham of Flash Drive Direct. “Our catalog sales have increased by 17%, our visitor return rate went up to 22% and our ROI seems to have increased substantially. In fact during one of our marketing sessions our internal mail server crashed due to the sheer volume of new traffic generated by the interest in the DigiCatalog.”

DigiCatalog, SmartBlast and Flash Drive Direct now close the Beta test period and launch the newly finished DigiCatalog 2.0.
