FREEDOMSPEAKS.COM
What Company Says:
We've created a simple, easy way for you to write your government officials - all of them! On our website, you can compose a single letter, and, with a few clicks, send it to every official that represents you. We'll send that letter free of charge to your officials' email boxes and fax machines. How do we accomplish this? In a word, technology. Technology allows us to automate these processes so they cost a minimal amount. We get charged around $0.07 per fax that is sent, but we plan on making that up with advertising (so click on some ads if you'd like to support us!). We also plan on charging the politicians a monthly fee to maintain a custom profile as well.
One of our Mission Statement goals is to promote government transparency.
Issues like global warming and green initiatives, the conflict in Iraq, the tension our country faces with Iran, China and North Korea, our immigration policies, and even the slowdown of our once strong economy all play a role in who we decide will represent us to the world at large. Websites that bring these issues to light are great, and they do bring much needed attention. We feel, though, the only way to truly change how our country works is to communicate with those that represent us. How can we do that, you might ask? Simple - FREEDOMSPEAKS.COM.

Searchles is a highly scaleable "social search" platform that showcases expertise, enables collaboration with peers
What Company Is Offering:
Searchles is a highly scaleable "social search" platform that showcases expertise, enables collaboration with peers and instantly captures it in searchable knowledge indexes. The platform is a hybrid, combining aspects of "social bookmarking" and "social networking" technology with analytical "social search" capability.
How It Works:
Network search allows you to discover content with personalized filtering features that include tags, keywords or a combination of both, as well as the ability to apply these same filters to search all postings, groups, friends, or friends' friends based on your own criteria. By analyzing the associations and patterns between trusted people, sources, tags and content, Searchles is able to deliver more precise, relevant results while suggesting content and people related to your interests.
The proprietary technology behind Searchles is an evolution of the search engine Dumbfind, developed by veteran search technologist and Searchles' founder and CTO Chris Seline. Both brands are wholly-owned by Searchles, Inc., a privately-held company based in Washington, D.C. backed by angel investors.

Move Networks’ open, Web-based protocol solves the problem of delivering high-quality live and on-demand video
What Company Is Offering:
Move Networks’ open, Web-based protocol solves the problem of delivering high-quality live and on-demand video that easily and cost-effectively scales to millions of viewers while fully protecting your video assets.
Move Networks’ delivery protocol creates less cost for you. With most traditional streaming technologies, video content is delivered as one complete file, and sometimes the entire file must be downloaded before the viewer can begin watching it. But Move Networks’ technology divides the video content into smaller files called “streamlets” which are delivered continuously as the viewer watches content. Because streamlet delivery stays just ahead of the video display, you don’t have to pay for content delivered that might not be watched, such as when a viewer exits a video stream early.
How It Works:
Move Networks’ intelligent client enables high-quality video with precise measurement of video consumers’ experiences, geography, and demographics for targeted advertising at higher CPMs. Move Networks’ media platform acts as an operating system for video, allowing easy integration with ad systems, analytics packages, commerce solutions, and other third-party services.
How Is It Different:
Video consumers watch content longer on Move Media Player than on other media players, including the Flash and Microsoft players. For the media company, this means more ad availabilities for much higher revenue.
Media companies are able to place targeted ads at much higher CPMs than are possible with other streaming providers because of the precise measurement and reporting tools.
Operating costs are less than what media companies pay for other streaming solutions.
Full Digital Rights Management protects valuable content from piracy and lets media companies roll out their products around the world on schedules that meet their business requirements.
The smooth, full-screen video image does not buffer or restart.
Episode-length and live videos are as good as cable or satellite television.
Video is available when and where consumers want it—on a computer, a television, or a cell phone—with TiVo-style navigation controls.
