For the last fifteen years I have been involved at a high
level in the software industry with medium to large companies
in the UK, the US and Europe. Recently I relocated to South
East Asia and am setting up a software consultancy in Malaysia.
For a more than ten years my work has focussed on board level
directorships and winning joint ventures with multinational
and European operating companies. At this level effective
communication between the technological experts and executive
management is essential. In numerous presentations, I found
myself increasingly working with web based content, finding
the resultant output far more versatile and accessible than
provided by more static tools such as Microsoft's Powerpoint.
Our technological innovations are predominantly web based
and we found it highly effective to seamlessly link (both
in appearance and access) presentational content with that
of the working Web. The technique also worked well in educating
our own resources, a good example being a course constructed
to bring through an academy of twelve graduates into a mainstream
pan-European development company of seventy.
Apart from other benefits, the job of building Web presentations
is much improved using the pageQ product. The tools assists
greatly the speed of construction while the modularity and
granularity of the output makes the customisation of the presentations
powerful. As pageQ's interface follows and extends that of
the ubiquitous browser it is intuitive and quick to learn.
The product is also slick and highly stable. These features
lead me to endorse pageQ as genuinely adding value to the
potential of the Internet and I expect to use it often.
