Allen R Gaughf,
Founder & President of Transmedia / Commercials On Hold

Atlanta, Georgia (PRWEB) February 22, 2012

Transmedia knows the economy has wreaked havoc on individuals, families and businesses for the past several years, but one group particularly hard hit is the non-profit sector. These organizations have been struggling to bring in donations to help take care of those in need in their communities. It’s a priority at Transmedia’s Commercials On Hold to help out local charities by adopting several throughout the year and supporting them with financial gifts and services.

According to Allen Gaughf, President of Transmedia, “In 2012, there will be an exciting ‘extra’ to corporate donations provided by Transmedia. 75 professional on hold systems will be donated to 501c3 organizations! The systems are refurbished Premier digital players and will come preloaded with licensed on hold music and customized messages for the non-profit. There are no strings attached- just pay $ 24.95 for shipping and handling. Simply have the Non-Profit (501c3) organization contact us and the rest will be handled internally. There are a limited number of digital players, so make sure the organization calls quickly or gets nominated quickly.” Gaughf went on to say that many non-profits have inquired and actually purchased their service in past years, but most simply didn’t have the budget for it in the past few years. This year, for 75 organizations, a budget for on hold messages will not be required.

At Commercials On Hold, the copywriters will assist the non-progits in creating the customized script for the organization. Professional voice talents will project the image the organization is desiring to project to all callers placed on hold and audio producers will mix the customized messages with terrific music, fully licensed for use on the non-profit’s phone system’s music on hold system (must be MOH ready). For more information on nominating a 501c3 and getting the non-profit set up, call Allen Gaughf at 800-832-4653, extension 225, or Gail Daniels at 800-832-4653, extension 227.

Transmedia’s Commercials On Hold division, currently celebrating its 30th anniversary, works with over 4,000 clients in North America, in all industry classifications, from dental and medical to business and industry. In addition to on hold messages, Transmedia specializes in audio prompts for IVR systems; custom auto attendants; custom business audio; website design and hosting; Flash/Click Web audio and video; and SEO (search engine optimization).

Your first step should be to find well-established and well-respected hosting providers. You can do this by looking on-line for those firms who have won awards. These are by far the most reliable firms. This will give you a shortlist to work from.

Comparing VPS Packages

Narrow that list down by crossing off any firms that do not meet your needs e.g. do not allow you to host enough websites. From there you can compare one package with another. If you are serious about doing this thoroughly, build yourself a quick spreadsheet. List features like amount of RAM, RAID disk space and disk transactions per second down the left hand colour. Across the top, list the providers.

By filling out the spreadsheet with details from each provider, you can truly compare VPS packages. Which offers best value for money is the clear at a glance.

CookieQ.com

Oxford, UK (PRWEB) February 19, 2012

Baycloud Systems are pleased to announce that they have been awarded a Framework Agreement for the provision of G-Cloud Services by the UK Government Procurement Service.

Baycloud Co-Founder and CTO Mike O’Neill said, “We are particularly delighted that our CookieQ cookie law compliance service will shortly be available to any public sector organisation via the G-Cloud. Public sector websites can now offer citizens a clear choice to opt-in or remain opted-out of non-essential cookies or other online tracking data.”

Online privacy has been the focus of much recent attention. Laws have been introduced across Europe reflecting popular concerns about online tracking of citizens for behavioural advertising and other purposes. In the UK this is covered by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, sometimes called the Cookie Law.

CookieQ works with any web server platform on any type of website from small business sites to very large e-commerce sites. It has been designed to enable web site operators to fully comply with the Cookie Law, while keeping the visitor experience as seamless as possible.

Very easy to install and deploy, the product offers a customer configurable, fully scalable and technically advanced range of features. CookieQ was released in May 2011, has been significantly enhanced since then and is now in use on many websites across Europe.

To install CookieQ on a website just copy and paste a small piece of script to a web page. Because the cookie management is client based, and the complex database access application is hosted by Baycloud Systems, there is no need for changes to server code which inevitably requires further software development and much time spent regression testing.

CookieQ :

    Removes 1st party cookies by default if visitors have not opted in, displaying a panel where they can opt-in and remembers their choices on subsequent visits so that they do not need to be asked again.
    Optionally displays a reminder banner when visitors have not opted-in, but gives them the opportunity to remove it.
    Provides independent proof of consent if needed.
    Allows analytics services such as Google Analytics to collect anonymous statistical information about visitors even if cookies are removed. 100% of visitors can be counted with an optional “unique visitors” indication.
    Provides a single page for visitors where their cookie consent choices at any website can be reviewed and changed.
    Intercepts 3rd party content to ensure consent for 3rd party cookies. Videos and social networking share buttons etc. can be deployed without needing contractual safeguards from other content providers.

Baycloud Systems does not place advertisements or derive revenue from behavioural advertising. CookieQ is available to web publishers at a low-cost annual subscription based either on the level of web site traffic or the number of opted-in visitors

DUNK TANK NEWS is a new comedy series written, directed, edited and hosted by Brian Shotwell. In each episode, Shotwell takes a popular person in the media and puts them in a virtual dunk tank. So far Justin Bieber, Matt Lauer, Snooki, Rick Santorum, and Kim Kardashian have all been dunked. Shotwell wanted to make a comedy show that spoke to people who wanted to just laugh and he saw a huge opportunity to start finding celebrity targets to dunk. Shotwell was a comedian from a very young age and was named class clown in his junior high school yearbook. He performed his first comedy routine at Laughs Unlimited in Sacremento and was hooked after that. Shotwell had the idea for DUNK TANK NEWS in 2008 and started developing the concept. He has currently produced six episodes and plans to continue and release many more.

Brian Shotwell is an award-winning independent filmmaker and SAG actor residing in the Coachella Valley and has been in the film industry since 1990. He got his start picking up trash on a HBO film titled White Mile, which lead to a series of industry jobs. Later he successfully produced many of his own film projects featuring stars and celebrities. His animated film titled AUTOMATON (2008), garnered a 1st place for Best Sci-Fi Animated Short at the California International Animation Film Festival. In addition his film DEFCON 2012 (2009) was a 1st place winner at the 2010 New York Independent Film Festival and has been translated into Chinese, Thai, and German languages. Brian is now reaching the peak of his career as a producer, actor, producer, writer and director. In the summer of 2010 Brian released an independent Sci-Fi feature film titled ENEMY MIND, which stars the voice talent of Oscar Winning Actor Ernest Borgnine.

In the spring of 2011 Brian co-produced and starred in a comedy titled PINK SQUIRRELS, which enlisted local talent and crew and played to a sold out audience of 540. Brian also produced and released in 2012 a thriller titled HOUSE OF MIRRORS, which stars Josette Pacino, the sister of legendary Hollywood actor Al Pacino. In 2010 Brian was honored by Palm Springs Life Magazine as one of the “40 Under 40” most influential people in the community and appeared on a two part Emmy winning episode of the Oprah Show which she named one of the greatest shows in her 25 year history. His appearance on the show led to the production of a powerful documentary about men dealing with childhood abuse titled THE HEALING JOURNEY, to be released in November 2012.

The DUNK TANK NEWS show has been a highlight for Shotwell, because entertaining people and making them laugh has been a life passion. According to Shotwell, the world can never get enough comedy.

Better than a Box of Chocolates

Experiencing a destination through its favorite sweet confections is a perfect way to celebrate Valentine’s Day or any day and more creative than the traditional box of chocolates.

    Likely to sell out, the Paris Chocolate and Pastry Food Tour combines a passion for sweet Parisian delicacies with a passion for Paris.
    The Brussels Chocolate Walking Tour and Workshop explores the city’s history through its love of chocolate, and includes a hands-on workshop with a ‘Master Chocolatier.’

Love is certainly something to celebrate and experiences that feature the sparking specialty known as Champagne give a Valentine that extra special feeling.
