David and thread; WARP news - Home - Yahoo! - Help [ Business \| US Market \| By Industry \| IPO \| AP \| S&P \| International \| PRNews \| BizWire ] Monday May 3, 10:30 am Eastern Time Company Press Release SOURCE: Warp 10 Technologies Inc. Warp10's adsGallery.com selected as premier showcase for IBM's HotMedia AdsGallery.com is the Leading online Showcase for Rich Media Advertising SAN FRANCISCO, CA, May 3 /CNW-PRN/ - Warp 10 Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: WARP, CDN: WARP) - publisher of leading web sites for ad agencies, brand managers, and the creative community, announced today that IBM has chosen adsGallery.com as a key showcase for HotMedia. The announcement was made at the AdTech conference in San Francisco, where both IBM and Warp 10 were promoting the relationship to the public. Armando Garcia, vice president of Internet media at IBM, explained why adsGallery.com was seen as a strategic venue for HotMedia: ''We want to educate the creative community about the benefits of using HotMedia in their advertisements and catalogs. As a leading showcase of great advertising, the adsGallery.com site targets one of our most important creative communities.'' HotMedia allows developers to take merchandising on the Web to a much higher standard of interactivity and visitor involvement. For example, HotMedia allows shoppers to view a sweater from a 360 degree perspective and zoom in for a close, high resolution look at the cashmere material. This increases the likelihood of a sale, making it a tremendous asset for e-business. The same approach is being used to provide richer Web experiences through ad banners, navigational toolbars and other Web elements. The adsGallery.com site provides a searchable directory of thousands of major agencies and independent designers, and showcases hundreds of portfolios of advertising campaigns. Individuals and agencies who exhibit their work in adsGallery.com are able to upload their work directly, and modify their portfolios and company information in a secure, password protected environment. The site is free for both exhibitors and visitors. Marvin Igelman, President and CEO of Warp 10 is delighted that IBM is working with adsGallery.com to showcase HotMedia: ''What attracted us to Hotmedia is that it enables ad agencies, designers, and multimedia artists to create truly interactive Web experiences simply and powerfully, without requiring plug-ins or any special technology. This fits perfectly with our mission to showcase great advertising and commercial creative work.'' IBM and Warp 10 also disclosed their intention to work together on additional programs to drive the visibility and adoption of HotMedia within the worldwide creative community. With the announcement, adsGallery.com will begin accepting the upload and presentation of HotMedia content at the site, and will include an ever improving editorial section that will highlight the benefits and uses of HotMedia, along with other content of interest to both the creative and business community.
