on-IDLE Launches New Development and Web Services Company – Open Infinite Ltd

(PRWEB) August 7, 2002

15 August 2002, London, UK

on-IDLE Launches New Development and Web Services Company – Open Infinite Ltd

on-IDLE Ltd is 3 years old and still going strong! – on-IDLE Launches New Development and Web Services Company, Open Infinite Ltd

—-Begins—-

on-IDLE http://www.on-idle.com celebrated its third birthday on 28th June 2002, surviving the dot com boom and bust, demonstrating that their solid and robust offerings deliver quick returns for their customers in a volatile market.

To focus upon their key strengths and keep prices competitive, on-IDLE have decided to launch a new company as a spin-off from the core company on-IDLE. This new company, Open Infinite Ltd http://www.o-idev.com, launching in mid-August 2002, will concentrate on development of products within the web services and XML industry. on-IDLE will continue to take advantage of the technology that it originally fostered, using the first product out of the Open Infinite stable, o-iDev©, to design and build websites with content management functionality built in.

on-IDLE are now able to offer low cost, quick turn around projects for organisations wishing to take more control of the content on their websites, and have the ability to ‘re-fresh’ information regularly without the expense of programmers.

o-iDev provides the ability to design, build and implement a website with easily updateable static pages as well as using a simple web based admin interface for controlling multiple data sources for the more dynamic aspects of the site (e.g. product catalogues, address books, press centres etc).

In addition to the content management aspects of o-iDev and the solutions they build with it, o-iDev uses the principles of XML to separate the Content, Code (Data) and Presentation. This makes it easier to re-use functionality with different content and/or different designs. This now allows companies to have multiple brands or products sets published using the same product – using one o-iDev licence to create many different websites within the same organisation. The first o-iDev packages are available through DataGate http://www.datagate.co.uk hosting space, the UK`s leading ISP where support is concerned and an on-IDLE partner.

Ane-Mari du Toit, Co-founder and Sales and Marketing Director at on-IDLE explains, “The new focus that we are undertaking will ensure that our existing and new customers receive the very best from our consultancy, design and development services, whilst using best of breed technology designed and built for the purpose by Open Infinite.”

Du Toit adds, “Our partnership and close working relationship with Open Infinite allows swifter and cost-efficient development – this ultimately ensures that our customers have a quicker ROI on their web projects”.

James Fuller, Technical Director at Open Infinite comments, “Open InfiniteÂ’s close partnership with on-IDLE Limited is beneficial for both companies from technological transfer to generating a direct sales pipeline. Our o-iDeveloper technology, built over the past 3 years, gives us the framework with which to deliver the semantic web enterprise; effectively converting content into a true commodity Â…and putting the right people in the virtual driving seat when it comes to application development.”

New Open Data Partnership Improves Government Transparency at State and Federal Levels


Denver, CO AND Washington, DC (PRWEB) June 19, 2012

In a significant step toward greater government transparency, two organizations focused on publishing government data have joined forces to present major new comprehensive, user friendly, publicly accessible databases of state and federal bills. LegiNation, creator of the BillTrack50 solution to track state bills will exchange information with open government technology company Civic Impulse, developer of the federal legislative monitoring tool GovTrack. The aim of the data exchange is to provide individuals, advocacy groups, businesses and legislative professionals with access to information to better engage with government.

Joshua Tauberer is president of Civic Impulse and the author of Open Government Data: The Book which frames the open government data movement as the application of Big Data to civics. Mr. Tauberer said the partnership with LegiNation creates an important source of government data and presents citizens with the opportunity for increased participation in and influence of government.

Citizens are far more savvy about their government and more interested in participating in it than most people realize. Apathy is a myth. But what they need are better tools to participate effectively and efficiently, Mr. Tauberer contends.

Federal and state bills can be accessed on the http://www.billtrack50.com and http://www.govtrack.us websites for free, and a professional version allowing for advanced tracking and sharing is available through BillTrack50. The sites present bill text, status, and summaries in a format easily located by Google-like word search or by using more exact information like legislator names or bill numbers. Tools to stay informed of legislative activity are also provided.

Karen Suhaka, president of LegiNation said the combined data will present a more accurate picture of the political landscape across the country, making it is easier to identify state and federal policy trends. The partners also hope to improve the ability to analyze how ideas spread in government.

People who are frustrated with Congress must look at the possibility of successful engagement at the state level. Making this data available to the public and to cost-conscious legislative professionals encourages everyone, not just moneyed interests, to make their voice heard in government, Ms. Suhaka said. Individuals really can engage at the state level and have an impact.

About GovTrack.us

GovTrack.us is a tool by Civic Impulse, LLC to help the public research and track the activities in the U.S. Congress and state legislatures, promoting and innovating government transparency and civic education through novel uses of technology. Launched in 2004 initially as a hobby, GovTrack.us was the first website worldwide whose primary goal was to provide free and comprehensive legislative tracking for everyday citizens and to embrace Web 2.0 and open data. GovTrack.us was a 2006 Webby Award nominee and has been covered in The New York Times and The Washington Post, and it is the data provider for many other websites displaying legislative information.

About LegiNation

LegiNation, Inc. was founded in 2011 with the goal of making state level legislation more readily available to the professionals who need it, and even more importantly to the public at large. LegiNation is building products and websites that will spark a renaissance in American politics, leveraging the Internet to create the dialog so desperately needed amongst our elected officials, legislative professionals, and everyday citizens.

Bookkeeping Express Inks Franchise Agreement to Open New Offices in Northern Virginia and Baltimore-Washington Metropolitan Area

McLean, VA (PRWEB) October 16, 2008

Bookkeeping Express, the first U.S. franchise focused solely on bookkeeping services, announced today that it has signed a pair of area developer agreements with an entrepreneur group operating under the name of Intelligent Bookkeeping to open offices in Montgomery County in Maryland and Fairfax, Arlington and Alexandria counties in Northern Virginia.

The Bookkeeping Express in Maryland will be the first franchisee territory in the state. In Northern Virginia, the new offices join corporate-owned Leesburg, and McLean locations. As area developers, Rick Lowrie, Chris Keenan, and Pramod Raheja will be able to expand their services throughout the region.

“We are thrilled about bringing professional bookkeeping services to Maryland and Virginia. A void exists locally for skilled bookkeeping services that focus on the small business community,” said Lowrie, managing partner of Intelligent Bookkeeping. “As entrepreneurs, we are excited about becoming part of the Bookkeeping Express family. Bookkeeping Express has over 20 years of experience in the industry and their proven business model provides us with the marketing and operations support we need to help small business owners focus on growing their business.”

Already very familiar with the franchise concept, Lowrie, Keenan and Raheja own and operate a Bookkeeping Express office at 1425 K Street NW, Suite 350 in Washington D.C., which covers seven territories within the city’s limits.

The Intelligent Bookkeeping group’s roots run deep in the area. For several years, the trio of owners has run five Intelligent Office locations in the metro Washington area, providing the local small business community with virtual office services. Now, they have decided to enhance their small business offerings through the industry expertise and marketing support that comes with the Bookkeeping Express franchise model.

“The small business community is growing around the country, and Bookkeeping Express is expanding with it, providing qualified franchise investors with a niche franchise option that caters to this growing segment,” said Greg Jones, CEO of Bookkeeping Express and former 1981 Penn State University football team captain. “We are looking to grow with franchise partners such as Lowrie, Keenan and Raheja, who are serious about owning a business and sincere about their desire to fill a void in their communities with our distinctive services.”

The expansion into Maryland and Virginia is part of the company’s aggressive national development plans which call for more than 400 new territories, initially targeting growth throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. Lowrie, Keenan and Raheja have already signed seven territory agreements for the Washington, D.C. area, now bringing the new franchise concept to local small business owners.

With more than 27,000 small businesses in Montgomery County and over 38,000 in Fairfax, Arlington and Alexandria counties, Bookkeeping Express offers a much-needed service to companies that are not equipped or do not wish to handle accounting responsibilities such as setting up charts of accounts and general ledgers, monthly data entry, processing and managing accounts payable and accounts receivable, producing monthly reports and tax reporting. Plus, Bookkeeping Express utilizes an Alternative Pricing Model that is based on the clients’ needs instead of a one fits all, hourly billing approach.

As part of the Bookkeeping Express franchise model, all locations will offer the BKE Connect system, which allows businesses access to all bookkeeping files remotely through an outside server, as well as a dashboard that clearly and visually ‘sums’ up the business’ operations for thorough analysis. Two options available to Bookkeeping Express investors include Master or Area Development territories that can be operated out of home-based or commercial space locations; per territory start-up fees run under $ 50,000.

About Bookkeeping Express:

Bookkeeping Express, a national company focused on providing professional bookkeeping practices to small businesses, was founded in 1984 in California and grew to over 150 locations through licensing agreements. In 2007, Greg Jones, along with Bob Stocker and Merritt Green, purchased the company and launched the new business model in McLean, Virginia in January of 2008. Bookkeeping Express is currently registered to franchise in 41 states. For more information, please visit http://www.bookkeepingexpress.com or contact 877-525-5337.
