AN ONLINE resource described as, “the future of the internet” was yesterday unveiled to the world for the first time in Nicosia, with the promise that it is secure, accessible and usable.
We-r-you.com is said to be a, “a major new networking interface that introduces convergent core modelling technology.”
Stephen van Zutphen, CEO of we-r-you.com, described the resource as an “intelligent secure network that enables advanced social and business interaction, anywhere, anytime data access”.
He added that the interface “re-orients software from a computer to a person centric focus and bridges the gap from desktop computing to internet-based computing to make computing easier, more powerful, secure and elegant.”
Van Zutphen further explained: “Think of ‘r’ as a brain that exists on the internet network, and because it exists as the principal nodal core, all information is accessed on from that ‘r’ core.”
According to the CEO, we-r-you.com is a place where a wealth of online technologies converge to create an online resource. Focused on, but not exclusively dedicated to, social networking, it is said effectively to blend facilities such as those offered by all of the most popular portals on the web but does so in a convergent one-stop shop format that means a smoother surfing experience.
Andreas Georgiou, a member of the ‘r’ team, spoke more about what the launch will mean for users. “People love to network as can be seen by the popularity of the many different brands of media sharing, social networking and chat-oriented sites on the web,” he said. “What we have done is create a combination of all of the above functions plus a lot more that is more effective and efficient. Our next-generation interface is about to re-invent how people use the internet by offering tangible powers that will have a real, positive impact on the daily lives of our members.
“We take the advantages of a portal, the fun of social networking and the practicality of modern productivity solutions and recreate them in one defining interface. It’s a meeting place where users, through a simple log in, can enjoy unparalleled access to social tools such as photo albums and music/video libraries, integrated communications via SMS, instant messaging, e-mail and VoIP, along with practical tools such as calendars, contact lists and project management devices.”
Georgiou cited the online file storage feature as an example of one of the many benefits of we-r-you.com. To have ready access to their files, today’s users often carry laptops or portable memory devices. ‘R’ removes the need to carry files around at all, by simply uploading them to the internet.
“The security and privacy of the interface is unparalleled and offers a massive amount of storage space to the user,” he said. “It is the perfect way to keep your data safe, accessible and usable.”
Benjamin Kanarek is Vice President of Strategy and Creative Marketing and he explained why Cyprus was chosen for the worldwide launch.
“Cypriots are keen users of social networking and also readily adopt new technologies. Plus, from Cyprus, take-up will expand rapidly across the world’s urban centres and we expect the snowball effect to be phenomenal.”
Van Zutphen described we-r-you as just the start. “Great things are coming of which ‘r’ is just a small part. Very soon we’ll be revealing to the world more of the power of ‘r’, a concept and technology that will revolutionise the way we interact with the world around us.”
