Time Management Tool Wins SelfHelpTips.com Award

Dorset, UK (PRWEB) December 23, 2005

SelfHelpTips.com has given its first prestigious Editors Choice award to the Search Automator tool developed by Derek Franklin. The tool won out as the inaugural award winner through its ease of use, attention to detail and its ability to help uses save a huge amount of time when they are searching for something on the Internet.

The reason why this tool has taken these honours is down to the fact that it provides a layer of abstraction to search users from the powerful underlying search engines. Most people use major search engines like Google and quite literally take their chances and see if theyre feeling lucky.

With this new tool, the ability to use little known niche search engines and advanced search criteria on the major engines without needing a PhD means a huge saving in time and labour.

Tom OBrien, editor of http://www.selfhelptips.com said: I purchased a copy of this tool early in 2005 and much to my detriment promptly forgot about it. This was not because of a wanton waste of money but instead because I got sidetracked on other projects.

Whilst doing a bit of spring cleaning, I rediscovered the tool and promptly set about getting to grips with it. I was delighted I had because it has shaved literally hundreds of hours or research I would have spent online trying to dig out new resources and materials.

More Editors Choice awards will no doubt surface in 2006 but this inaugural winner is a huge boon for people short pressed for time and looking for information that is not easily accessible.

SelfHelpTips.com has developed an e-mail and RSS series of Self Help Tips. Each tip provides informative and usable information to help improve a different aspect of your life.

ShoZu Wins Gold in the Future Mobile Awards for their Contribution to Mobile Web 2.0


Hampshire, UK (PRWEB) August 19, 2008

Mobile Web 2.0 innovators, ShoZu, have been selected by Juniper Research as the top award winner in the Future Mobile Awards – mobile web 2.0 category.

The Future Mobile Awards are given to companies that have made a significant contribution to their sector and are poised to make considerable market impact in the future. The gold award recognises ShoZu as being a leading light in the development of the sector.

Ian Chard, panel judge and Analyst at Juniper Research says, “Supporting one-click transfer of digital content between mobile phones and 50+ social web destinations, geo-tagging, mobile-to-web messaging, and behavioural targeted advertising, ShoZu offers mobile network operators an established, all-round Mobile Web 2.0 on/off-deck turnkey platform. The average user is said to generate 20 network ‘events’ (i.e. content uploads/downloads) per month, with heavy users generating in excess of 100 events per month. This success demonstrates what can be achieved if users have the right tools available. ShoZu has partnered with Telecom Italia, Singapore’s StarHub and 3 (Austria and UK) under revenue-share agreements, while shipping as an embedded application on Motorola and Samsung handsets. By providing the mobile web equivalent of a DVR (Digital Video Recorder) and catering to the needs of the prosumer, ShoZu is a deserving Gold winner this year.”

The awards were granted by a panel of expert judges based on a number of criteria, including: Innovation; Customer retention and growth; Commercial deployment; Ease of use/user interface; Revenue generation; Pricing (for services/products); and Capability/functionality. Gold and Silver awards were conferred for each category – Gold awarded to ShoZu, and Silver to BuzzCity – within the mobile web 2.0 category.

ShoZu CEO Mark Bol commented, “ShoZu has received some of the top awards in the industry, but being recognized by a respected analyst firm like Juniper Research is particularly gratifying. They clearly understand the problems of the mobile Web, the need to mobilize social media, and our contribution to both areas,” He continued, “Our goal all along has been to help users manage their online social lives from the handset, and this award shows that we have done that better than anyone else in the industry.”

ShoZu is a mobile utility that speeds and simplifies the process of interacting with online social media from the mobile phone by enabling users to connect to over 50 Web 2.0 sites – ranging from Facebook to YouTube, Flickr, Kodak EasyShare Gallery, Photobucket, Twitter, Google Blogger, WordPress and beyond – from a single interface. This eliminates the need to open a mobile browser and navigate to each community. With ShoZu installed on the handset, smartphone, iPhone or BlackBerry, users can mass-publish any photo or video to multiple websites and/or email addresses with a single upload; send Twitters and update Facebook status from the same interface; have friends’ photos, comments and other posts delivered directly to the mobile device without intervention; and more.

San Francisco Singer/Songwriter Aoede, Afflicted with Extremely Rare & Debilitating Disease, Dermatomyositis, Wins 2012 Album of the Year & Best Folk/Acoustic Artist"


San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) February 23, 2012

Singer/Songwriter Lisa Sniderman, aka: Aoede (pronounced A-E-D), has won Album of the Year for her 2011 release Affair with the Muse, and Best Folk/Acoustic Artist in the inaugural 2012 Artists In Music Awards. The awards were presented during the Artists in Music Awards ceremony, held during Grammy Week at the prestigious Key Club in Hollywood, California, February 10, 2012. The Artists in Music Awards gives special recognition to the best unsigned and independent music artists around the world. The Artists in Music Awards ceremony, created by casting agent, producer and host of the long-running online streaming radio program The Great Unknowns Presents, Mikey Jayy, was presented in front of a live audience of 1,400 people and was also streamed live online in HD.

Aoede will release her second full-length CD April 15, 2012, Skeletons of the Muse, which was partially funded by fans through Kickstarter. Skeletons of the Muse comes a little over one year since the release of her digital EP, Affair with the Muse, in March 2011, which shot her to #2 on Reverbnation’s San Francisco pop chart and #74 on the national chart. Also in that time, Aoede has garnered numerous accolades for her music, won multiple songwriting awards, developed a popular blog, engaged fans through social media, and participated in national motivational speaking engagements where she offers support, advice, and encouragement.

Aoede, who is also WomensRadio.coms recipient of a Top Album of the Decade honor, and Top Artist of the Year for 2008, in recognition of her CD release, Push and Pull, accomplished all of this, plus more, in quite the unorthodox fashion and against a very fierce obstacle – while suffering from a rare connective-tissue disease called Dermatomyositis for which there is no known cure. Dermatomyositis, which afflicts an estimated 5.5 people per million, attacks and weakens the immune system, muscles and skin as well as the mind and spirit, and if left untreated, could result in complete muscle wasting and long-term disability, as well as other complications.

Aoedes condition, the onset of which inexplicably began in mid-2008, worsened in September 2010 to where she had to be hospitalized for 24-days of treatment and rehabilitation. She credits two forms of treatment that is helping her rebuild her body and spirit: Intravenous therapies and creating Affair with the Muse and Skeletons of the Muse.

Aoede states, A large part of my healing process remains creating new music and connecting with people. The objective in getting these songs out was because I didnt know what life was going to bring. Music is my lifeline. I cannot perform live for awhile; so I hope to reach those who feel helpless and alone and offer inspiration and support with every ounce of my soul. Being recognized by Artists In Music Awards is a true honor and privilege and incredibly gratifying. It shows me it is really all about the music.

The unique Artists In Music Awards three-stage judging process stipulates that a combination of votes from fans and a panel of judges, comprised of music industry professionals, are required to advance the nominee to Final Category Winner Selection. A lack of first stage fan participation, resulting in low nominee fan votes, will lead to contest disqualification before advancing to the elimination round. In the event of a fan and judge vote tie, the fans cast the final vote.

According to Mikey Jayy, We believe we made the voting process as fair as possible. Aoede won Best Folk/Acoustic Artist with 50% of the votes, with the runner-up coming in with 25% of the votes. For Album of the Year, Aoede’s won with 63% of the votes, with the runner up coming in with 27% of the votes. Because she not only had the support of her fans, but also had the support of the judges, with that kind of support, no one can argue that she didnt deserve both awards.

Fans of Ingrid Michaelson, Regina Spektor, Feist, Lily Allen and A Fine Frenzy resonate with Aoede’s prodigal and passionate songwriting skills that synergistically blend melody and lyric into compellingly captivating musical vignettes conveyed in her imitable breathy, bouncy, and enchantingly quirky soprano.

An avid philanthropist, Aoede is also a co-founder of WomenROCK (http://womenrocksf.wordpress.com/), a Bay Area-based women-in-music advocacy group, and a driven environmentalist with a passion for water resources.
