Glide Adds Bang to Your Bing, a Boost for Your Google and a Lift for Your Yahoo!

NEW YORK, Nov. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- TransMedia will launch the next generation of the award winning Glide OS on December 7. The all new Glide is a portable and transparent web operating system and application suite that effectively wraps desktop functionality around web content from any online location.

The Glide OS and application suite component can be added directly to your Google Chrome, Explorer, Firefox and Safari web browser. There is no need to purchase a specific hardware device or use a specific browser.

Glide Adds Bang to Your Bing, a Boost for Your Google and a Lift for Your Yahoo!

Glide layers a sophisticated file management system and powerful collaboration and productivity application suite on top of leading search and social networking services that facilitates instant collaboration with web content.

Glide's automated web capture, cross-platform file conversion and synchronization technology transform the web into your personal hard drive and a powerful collaboration platform.

Glide provides one search box and a bidirectionally synchronized file management system to access and manage your personal files on your local desktop, search results and other online content. This makes it possible to seamlessly access and transfer data between the web and your local desktop(s). You can capture text, images, audio and video content online and automatically transfer web content to your local desktop as well as automatically publish files from your local desktop to the web.

To enhance your search experience, access Bing, Google or Yahoo through the Glide search interface and select multiple search results. Glide automatically extracts web content to a Microsoft Word 2007, 97, 2003, XP, PDF, RTF, or Glide Write Document. Then select or create your target folder(s) and Glide automatically adds your web content to a synced personal or rights-based collaboration folder for offline and online access.

"To access Glide, there is no required web destination and there are no restrictions on what browsers can be used or what sites can be visited," said TransMedia Chairman and CEO, Donald Leka. "The all new Glide extends your file management system beyond your local and online desktops to the web itself - beyond the limitation of a particular device, browser or even a specific search portal, social network or other website."

TransMedia is a pioneer in popularizing the Web OS preceding Microsoft's and Google's initiatives with the launch of Glide OS version 1.0 on November 30, 2005, version 2.0 on December 7, 2006 and version 3.0 on May 29, 2008 at the All Things Digital Conference.
