.New Technology Rocks the Online World



A new technology has been released that has completely rocked the online world! 

Every now and then, someone releases a new product or gadget that makes the rest obsolete. Those are rare, and hard to find

Dave Guindon an under the radar software developer/marketer, who is actually one of the most brilliant software designers for developing software tools that save you time and make you money has just released a new tiny but powerful web script called “Exit Splash” that increases your website sales almost instantly!

Internet Marketers who have been fortunate enough to test it out before it was launched have been raving about it.

The results have been impressive to say the least. The script essentially turns non-buying website visitors into happy customers. Its a very cool and clever way to produce new leads and sales.

   Michael Cheney is one of the most-respected names in the field of Internet marketing.

 Michael Cheney who is very well known in the Internet marketing community and admired by many tested Dave’s script for one of his recent website launches. He reported back that the results were nothing short of stunning, and that he added over 20,000 subscribers.Another top online traffic expert, Michael Jones, tested Dave’s script and was able to increase his customer signup rate by 325%!

 When it comes to internet marketing today, most marketers know how to and understand just how important it is to keep up with the trends.

 This technology is so new that it sounds like science fiction! But be assured… it’s real, and it works.Even if you have a “good” converting sales page, you probably have 95 out of 100 visitors leaving your site without taking any action. When one looks at this perspective with that in mind, it can be quite disturbing to see what is at stake.

Exit Splash is the world’s first super-tiny script that can prevent website abandonment by up to 325% and a great way to tap into that lost traffic by adding it to your website.

IBM on path to cut internal apps by 85% IBM CIO Jeanette Horan (Photo: IBM)

  IBM has reduced its number of internal applications by 70%, but that's not enough for CIO Jeanette Horan.
When the company started its consolidation effort, it had about 16,000 applications. It has since cut that number to 4,500, "but it's still too many," Horan said.Horan has given her IT team the task of cutting the number of remaining applications in half by the end of 2015. That would result in an overall reduction of about 85% from the original 16,000. 
IBM's goal is to have common global applications across all business units.
If you've got different applications in different countries, you don't have a global process," said Horan, who was appointed to her post one year ago.
              The IT department provides employees with virtual server space and middleware to develop their own applications to serve specific needs. IBM has 100,000 registered users in the program. In some cases, these app projects may lead to something that the IT department will support in a production environment or may even turn up as a feature in a software product, said Horan
