Expanded RocketNews.com Portal Re-Launched
RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- Feb. 9, 2006 -- Rocketinfo Inc. (OTCBB:RKTI), today announced the re-launch of a revamped version of the extremely popular Rocketnews.com portal and current news search engine. The updated site continues the Company tradition of providing the public free and unbiased access to the world's largest and most diverse collection of current news sources and weblog content, while showcasing the Company's unparalleled search technologies and exciting new search tools.
Commenting on the site re-launch, Rocketinfo CEO Gary Campbell said, "We are focusing our corporate energies on ensuring that the Rocketnews.com portal continues to provide all our users free and unrestricted access to the most comprehensive collection of news from worldwide sources possible today."
As recently reported on January 25th, 2006, by Search Engine Watch (searchenginewatch.com), the leading source of news and analysis of the search engine industry, "Google News has also been leapfrogged (by Rocketnews) in the number of news sources that it aggregates." Rocketnews provides access to news content "from more than 16,000 news sources and 70,000 RSS and weblog sources," more than any other current news search engine. The article noted that Google News covers only 4,500 sources, while Yahoo! News includes only 7,000 sources. The dynamically updated Rocketnews.com database features major newswires, newspapers, magazines, trade journals and specialty publishers from around the world.
Rocketinfo's popular suite of current news and information solutions makes it easy to embed current news and real time search technologies into portals and 3rd party software applications. The strength of Rocketinfo's content and technology has led to mission critical deployment of the company's embedded solutions by Sun Microsystems, GlaxoSmithKline and other Fortune 500 companies.
The updated look and feel of the Rocketnews.com portal is easier to read and navigate. The portal provides the ability to browse and easily find targeted current news or weblog content on any topic. Users can also create their own RSS newsfeeds for use in the Rocket RSS reader or any of the many other RSS readers available online. Several other exciting new tools and services will be introduced in the coming months.
