Rick Schwartz Declares IPhone A Winner

Published on June 30, 2007 in Business. 2 Comments

Rick has a way to see things long before they happen. If he says something that involves the future, I tend to listen carefully.

From RicksBlog.com:

The net just got a little more mobile. Email just got easier and I am still counting how many devices are actually in the iphone and what is to come in the 2nd generation. Summer surfing just got a little better.

WELL DONE!! The bar has not only been raised, it has been moved and it will take years for anyone to catch up.

I would like to hear more of Rick’s perspective how the iPhone will effect the way business is done in the future, especially in terms of web navigation. I will ask Rick to come and comment here. Wish me luck! (edit: Thanks Rick for the comment!)

On that iPhone note, I just went to Youtube and did a search for “iphone” to see search for some user reviews. I came across this video, Conan’s iphone coomercial. Enjoy!

Ng’s Dedication To Developing Cutting Edge Online Marketing Solutions Establishes Oversee As A Leader In The Los Angeles Business Community

Lawrence Ng, Co-Founder and CEO of Oversee.net (Oversee), a leading technology-driven online marketing solutions company, was named a winner of the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The Year 2007 award for the Greater Los Angeles program in the technology category. The award recognizes outstanding entrepreneurs who are building and leading dynamic growing businesses.

Oversee was founded in 2000 by Lawrence Ng and Fred Hsu, who were among the first to recognize the importance of the direct navigation business. Oversee has a portfolio of some 600,000 names, and its domain monetization service, DomainSponsor, monetizes more than 2 million domains for third parties. Oversee recently completed the acquisition of SnapNames, operator of the largest available source of expired and deleting domain names. The strategic purchase establishes Oversee as one of the most powerful domain name companies in the marketplace. The Company also operates a marketing services business, acquiring consumer traffic and converting it into qualified leads. Oversee offers marketing services in multiple verticals including mortgages and travel. Its brands include Low.com and Lowfares.com.

“It’s a privilege to be recognized by Ernst & Young for their Entrepreneur of the Year award, especially given the talented group of finalists who competed this year. This is an honor that I share with all members of the Oversee team, who have dedicated themselves to developing cutting edge technologies and online marketing solutions that lead to measurable results for our partners,”? commented Ng.

Oversee.net was recently ranked as the third fastest growing private business in Los Angeles by the Los Angeles Business Journal, and received the 2007 “Internet and New Media Company of the Year”? Award by the Technology Council of Southern California.

A year ago Lawrence and the DomainSponsor gang invited me to LA for a couple of days. Treatment of kings is an understatement, and the time spent with Lawrence — priceless.

Congratulations Lawrence, well deserved !!
