Matrix Launches the V Phone - A VoIP app for the iPhone - Published on 01/18/10
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Matrix today announces the launch of its proprietary V Phone offering wireless and mobile VoIP software for the iPhone platform. The V Phone sip client is targeted at IP Telephony companies that are or intend to provide voice and telephony services to end-users. It has the immense potential to be a forerunner in the supply of software to VoIP Service Providers and Internet Service Providers.
Perth, Australia - Matrix today announces the launch of its proprietary V Phone: wireless and mobile VoIP software for the iPhone platform, which has the immense potential to be a forerunner in the supply of software to VoIP Service Providers (VSP's) and Internet Service Providers (ISP's).
The V Phone sip client is targeted at IP Telephony companies that are or intend to provide voice and telephony services to end-users. For VoIP Service Providers (VSP's) that are providing home based voice services, the V Phone solution is the ideal opportunity for providers to further boost their revenue stream by offering wireless or mobile VOIP calls. Matrix can provide a white label or branded version of the V Phone that is customised to a provider's specifications. This versatile application can be locked down to a provider's settings, branded with their logo and integrated with the provider's backend system or toolbox.
Following the recent announcement of the V Phone on the Symbian platform, this further cements our offerings on IP Telephony solutions to service providers. Currently, as very few companies provide a wide range of SIP Clients for the major operating systems found on mobile devices, Matrix's V Phone product is a ready made solution and has the added advantage, since it will be available for the Google Android and Windows Mobile platforms as well.
The V Phone is also available to end users of the iPhone at the Apple App Store, this mobile VoIP app for the iPhone not only offers users the ability to make VoIP calls, it has the distinct advantage over its competitors of being able to send text messages or SMS's using your VoIP Provider of choice. This app is fully featured with history logs, contacts integration, dialing from history and adding to contacts from history logs. It even has a built in voice help to assist users configure the app.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone running 3.0 or later

7. Componica iPhone App Shows the iPhone Can Actually Make You Smarter

Componica iPhone App Shows the iPhone Can Actually Make You Smarter - Published on 01/19/10
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Componica today announces Memorize Words: Spanish 1.7 for iPhone and iPod touch devices. The application uses a highly researched theory of memorization to teach users foreign language vocabulary that will be retained long term. Using a special algorithm within the iPhone application, Memorize Words tracks the progress of the user and adjusts itself to the optimal learning conditions of that student.
Iowa City, Iowa - Everyone knows the iPhone can make you look cool... but can it make you smarter as well? A new iPhone app in the iTunes store from developer Componica shows it can, and has some pretty impressive research to back it up. "Using the theory of Spaced Repetition," says Componica CEO Dr. Steven Mitchell, "someone using the Memorize Words for Spanish app can learn up to 10,000 words over the period of a year to such an extent that they will never forget them."
So what is Spaced Repetition? Whenever you try to learn a new concept like "corbata = necktie," the likelihood of you remembering this fact decays over time exponentially. However, if you're reminded later that "corbata = necktie," the concept becomes more cemented in your mind and likelihood of you remembering will not decay as rapidly. Using a special algorithm within the iPhone application, Memorize Words tracks the progress of the user and adjusts itself to the optimal learning conditions of that student.
"Because the iPhone is with the student each day", says Dr. Mitchell, "it gives us a unique opportunity to reinforce the language learning curve in a manner no other device in history has ever allowed, much like being in an immersion environment.
Some of the additional features of Memorize Words include:
* Over 6,300 frequently learned Spanish Words with pronunciation professionally recorded by a native Spanish speaker
* Four interactive puzzle games to reinforce the lessons
* Search-able Spanish / English dictionary for on-the-go translations
Memorizing words efficiently is all about timing. Review a word too often and you'll waste time; review a word too infrequently and you'll forget it. Memorize Words tracks your rate of forgetting individual words, reminding you that "corbata" means "necktie" when your Recall rate for the word "corbata" has dropped below 90%.
"Because the iPhone is with the student each day", says Dr. Mitchell, " it gives us a unique opportunity to reinforce the language learning curve in a manner no other device in history has ever allowed, much like being in an immersion environment. I hear a lot about programs like Rosetta Stone being used by people in the military stationed in a foreign language environment - that social interaction is the spaced repetition. This iPhone product helps people who are not able to be emerged in that same environment build the same vocabulary strength".
Componica plans on releasing versions of the Memorize Words application for additional languages in the near future, with a version for Russian and French already in the works. The application is available in the iTunes app store for $6.99 with a free version available to those wishing to try before you buy. Additionally, a video demonstration can be found on YouTube.

Karelia Software also announced that it will be participating in tomorrow's "Indie Relief" charity event.
The principle change in this update is that newly-created web pages now use dashes, rather than underscores, to separate words in a web page URL, following the advice of a spokesperson for Google. This Search Engine Optimization (SEO) feature joins the many other search-engine-friendly features that are part of the Sandvox application, including proper use of header tags, customizable meta tags and title tags, and search-engine-visible graphical text replacement.
"We're always looking for ways to ensure that websites built with Sandvox are easy for the Search engines to index and list," said Dan Wood, president of Karelia Software. "Many people have chosen Sandvox to build their websites because it's easier to get one's site properly indexed by Google than it is when using, say, Apple's iWeb software."
Karelia Software will be participating in the "Indie Relief" event, in which over 100 Mac software companies are donating the proceeds from their January 20 sales to Haiti earthquake relief charities. Karelia will be donating all proceeds from Sandvox sales made on January 20, 2010 to Doctors without Borders (also known as Medecins Sans Frontieres), an international organization of medical professionals providing aid to the disaster-stricken country.
A Universal Binary for PowerPC and Intel architectures, Sandvox 1.6.6 requires Mac OS X "Tiger" version 10.4.11, or "Leopard" version 10.5, or "Snow Leopard" version 10.6, and is available in English, French, Danish, German, Brazilian Portuguese, and both Simplified and Traditional Chinese. A single-user license to Sandvox costs $57 (USD); a single-user license for the Pro edition (enabling raw HTML editing plus additional Google integration) costs $97 (USD). Household licenses and site licenses are also available.
More information about Sandvox is available at Karelia's website (created with Sandvox, of course). Review copies for traditional and online media are available. Please direct requests to the address below and include your name along with your publication's or podcast's name and/or URL and any information about particular features or needs of special interest to your readership or audience.

Karelia Software is the California-based company that originally brought you Watson, the ground-breaking Macintosh Web utility, winner of the MacWorld "Eddy" and the Apple Design Award for "Most Innovative Application." Karelia is headed by Dan Wood and Terrence Talbot. We joined forces to create Sandvox when we realized that even for the technically inclined, it was just too painful to get words and pictures on the Web.

10. Virtual TimeClock '10 Helps Businesses Reduce Employee Payroll Costs
Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com
Date: Tue Jan 19, 2010 3:30 am ((PST))
Virtual TimeClock '10 Helps Businesses Reduce Employee Payroll Costs - Published on 01/19/10
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Redcort Software today announces Virtual TimeClock '10, their industry leading time and attendance software for Apple Macintosh and Microsoft Windows computers. With new break and lunch time tracking capabilities, Virtual TimeClock delivers valuable features to help employers better manage employee payroll costs. Virtual TimeClock '10 has enhanced the powerful report writer with over a dozen new features that make getting the desired timecard report simple and intuitive.
Fresno, CA - Business owners can reduce payroll costs using powerful new employee time clock features in the new version of Virtual TimeClock from Redcort Software. With new break and lunch time tracking capabilities, Virtual TimeClock '10 delivers valuable features to help employers better manage employee payroll costs. Using Virtual TimeClock software saves employers valuable time and money. Accurately tracking worker breaks and lunches can lower employee payroll costs 3-5%.
"Using Virtual TimeClock software saves me 15 to 20 hours every month in the day to day and month end processing of payroll for our administrative staff," said Jim Verhei of Elder Options, a provider of in-home caregiver services in S.W. Washington & N.W. Oregon. "Using Virtual TimeClock over the last four years has enabled us to increase our delivery of services and maintain a balanced bottom line. It has enabled us to protect and preserve our employees, so that we've not had to implement any reduction in force during the current prolonged downturn."
Virtual TimeClock '10 provides employers with new tools to help them effectively manage employee time and attendance. "In these challenging economic times, businesses are working very hard to maintain profitability. Our customers tell us that controlling labor costs is a top priority today." said Keith DeLong, CEO of Redcort Software. "Virtual TimeClock '10 builds on the strengths of past versions with useful new cost control features. Most significantly, the new release enables employers to easily track paid and unpaid breaks and lunches, as well as manage unpaid leave. We also upgraded our timecard report writer to make access to the new information easy and intuitive."
New unpaid time tracking and threshold rules in Virtual TimeClock '10 ensure that employees are paid only for the time actually worked. "Limiting the amount of time employees are paid for breaks is a simple feature that is really powerful" remarked Jeff Morrow, Technical Support Manager at Redcort Software. "For instance, employers can now document a 10 minute paid break and Virtual TimeClock will automatically show any additional time taken as unpaid." New lunch break functionality in Virtual TimeClock '10 allows employers to also monitor and bring time accountability to unpaid breaks, helping them better manage resources during employee lunch hours.
Busy employers will save time with new worker leave management tools in Virtual TimeClock '10. New unpaid employee leave tracking and the ability to annotate leave entries simplifies worker leave time tracking. This new functionality makes it easy to manage compliance with the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) as well as equitable mandatory work reductions or furlough policies.
Complimenting the new employee time tracking functions, Virtual TimeClock '10 has enhanced the powerful report writer with over a dozen new features that make getting the desired timecard report simple and intuitive. New features include enhanced daily and activity totaling, separate columns for unpaid and leave hours, an optional supervisor signature line, and printing timecard reports for inactive workers. New report level settings for page orientation, time display (decimal or hours), and salaried worker totaling enable employers to easily customize reports for a variety of formats and needs.
A complete list of Virtual TimeClock '10 new features, as well as a free trial software download is available at the Redcort Software web site.

Date: Tue Jan 19, 2010 4:31 am ((PST))
iPhone Development Class in March at About Objects in Reston, VA - Published on 01/19/10
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
About Objects, Inc. is offering its popular series of iPhone development classes in Reston, VA during March, 2010. This series of courses lets developers 'right-size' their training by choosing the exact courses they need. The courses are designed to give attendees not only a firm grounding in iPhone development, but also solid insight into how things work under the covers so they truly understand what's going on in their code.
Reston, VA. About Objects is offering its popular series of iPhone development classes in Reston, VA during March, 2010. These courses have garnered good reviews from developers at companies such as Apple, Intuit, Symantec, Sybase, Raytheon, NASA, and Yahoo!. The classes are taught by noted developer and trainer Jonathan Lehr, author of the upcoming book, Objective-C: the Missing Manual (O'Reilly, September, 2010).
This series of courses lets developers 'right-size' their training by choosing the exact courses they need. The courses are designed to give attendees not only a firm grounding in iPhone development, but also solid insight into how things work under the covers so they truly understand what's going on in their code. The courses also provide numerous tips and techniques for using the language, the tools, and the frameworks more effectively.
The first of the three classes is a 3-day ANSI C Programming course that runs March 15-17. It provides a comprehensive introduction for people who are relatively new to programming, as well as for developers who lack experience in C or a C-like language, such as Java, C , or C#. That will be followed immediately by a 2-day Objective-C for Beginners class on March 18-19, designed to get experienced programmers up to speed quickly on object-oriented programming in Objective-C.
The third and final class in the series is a 5-day iPhone Programming Workshop, held March 22-26. After starting off with a brief review of Objective-C syntax and memory management, the course covers the following topics:
* Working with Xcode
* Working with Foundation Classes (strings, arrays, dictionaries, etc.)
* Memory Management and Performance Monitoring
* Network and Files
* Applications, Windows, Views, and Layers
* View Controllers
* Custom Drawing with Core Graphics
* Core Animation
* Responding to Touches
* Interacting with Buttons and Other Controls
* Working with Text Fields and Keyboard Input
* Working with Interface Builder
* Table views
* Navigation and Tab Bar Controllers
* Web Views
* Storing and Retrieving User Preferences and Data
* Working with the iPhone's Accelerometer, Location Data, and Other Core Services.
About Objects offers discounts for early registration as well as bundled training bundles that package either Objective-C for Beginners and the iPhone Programming Workshop, or all three of the courses in the series at a substantially reduced price.
Reactions from developers who have attended the classes have been overwhelmingly positive, including the following comments:
"Thanks again for the great class! My first app got approved for sale just before Christmas. I'm working on version 2.0 of it now. Thanks again for the great class!!!" - Mark Kenney, Mach Dog
"Highly recommended - especially if you want to understand what's going on (or at least get the tools to understand what's going on) behind the scenes." - Jeffrey E. Thoma, Ph.D.
"Excellent, well thought out and well designed course. This is a MUST-HAVE course for any one aspiring to be a good iPhone developer." - Santosh Menon, Sybase
"This was the best course I have taken and far better than the Stanford University class. I learned more in one week, with historical backgrounds from NeXT that I would have never learned anywhere else." - Victoria French, Metrosharp
"The best course I've ever taken. If you are serious about getting in-depth, end-to-end, real world iPhone programming, you must take this course! - John D'Esposito, Technet

Sesamouse brings real gestures and touches to Magic Mouse - Published on 01/19/10
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Washington based Calf Trail Software, LLC today announces Sesamouse 1.0, a free new utility for extending the gesture capabilities of the Magic Mouse. Sesamouse imitates real multitouch trackpad gestures and touches from the Magic Mouse. Pinch magnification, rotation and swipes are not sent as keyboard events, but real gestures and touches to Cocoa applications. The utility is free, but user donations are encouraged to help businesses in Haiti rebuild.
Outlook, Washington, USA - Calf Trail Software, LLC today is pleased to announce Sesamouse 1.0, a free new utility for extending the gesture capabilities of the Magic Mouse. Sesamouse works by imitating real multitouch trackpad gestures, enabling the user to exercise fine control over pinch and rotate gestures without needing to set up keyboard shortcuts.
Sesamouse also sends the position of each finger as touch information (known to Cocoa developers as a set of NSTouch objects) that can be recognized by more advanced multitouch apps. Users can practice gestures and see how their fingers have been recognized above Sesamouse's own application window.
In a post introducing Sesamouse on their blog, Calf Trail writes, "Since seeing Jef Han's [multitouch demonstration at the 2006 TED conference], it's been obvious that multitouch is a great way to do more stuff with less fuss on the computer." By extending the multitouch capabilities of Apple's Magic Mouse hardware, Calf Trail hopes to open more multitouch benefits to desktop users.
Because Sesamouse does rely on some undocumented system features, Calf Trail is releasing it as a free utility in hopes that it will still benefit both users and developers of multitouch-aware applications. In lieu of donations at this time, Calf Trail is encouraging users to contribute directly to help Haitian small businesses rebuild via a link on the Sesamouse product page.

16. Innovative Education iPhone App Company donating Apps to Schools

Innovative Education iPhone App Company donating Apps to Schools - Published on 01/19/10
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Niles Technology Group, creators of Achievers Writing Center essay writing apps, is aware that the economy has put a squeeze on many school budgets. To do its part in advancing technology in education amid declining resources, Niles Technology Group is donating iPhone apps to schools. High schools, colleges, and universities in the US are eligible. Individual teachers and professors can also apply for their classes. Application deadline is January 26, 2010.
Charlottesville, Virginia - Niles Technology Group, creators of Achievers Writing Center essay writing apps, is aware that the economy has put a squeeze on many school budgets. To do its part in advancing technology in education amid declining resources, Niles Technology Group is donating $5000 worth of iPhone apps to schools. High schools, colleges, and universities in the US are eligible. Individual teachers and professors can also apply for their classes. Application deadline is January 26, 2010.
Mobile technology is changing the way students learn. Moreover, it is giving students more opportunity to learn since the information is presented to them on devices that they use most. However, some schools that would like to afford their students this learning opportunity cannot because of current cost constraints.
"Upon seeing the many schools that downsized their technology departments, our company decided it could do something to slow down the decline a little bit," says Michael Niles, President of the Niles Technology Group. "It would be unfortunate if students cannot get the best software available for reasons that are not their fault. So I decided to put my thoughts and intentions in the same place. If my thought is students should have this software, then I should find a way to get it to them, even if it costs some revenue. And thus my idea to donate Achievers Writing Center apps to schools and teachers. I would like to say this is pure philanthropy, but it is good marketing for us as well. We get to help students and schools, and they, in turn, learn more about our excellent mobile app products. It is a win-win for everyone."
The reaction to this new way of writing essays, on mobile devices, has definitely gotten the attention of students who are trying to make better use of their time. Kelsey Murray, the Niles Technology Group's campus representative at the University of Oklahoma in Norman, OK, has first-hand experience with the reactions and comments of students using the new apps. Ms. Murray reports, "Students are always very excited about the apps! They think they are visually appealing, but more importantly, they are excited about the new-found possibility of working on their essays on their iPhone. College students are busier today than ever before, so the ease, convenience, and functionality of the Achievers Writing Center greatly appeals to them."
The donation program is very simple. Schools and teachers apply by January 26, 2010. To apply, email your school's name, location, website address, your name, and your position/title to NTG. Decisions will be announced on February 1.

17. MEI Celebrates 20 Years of Publishing Software Innovation

MEI Celebrates 20 Years of Publishing Software Innovation - Published on 01/19/10
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MEI celebrates its 20th anniversary this month. The company, known around the world for its flagship Page Director Ad Layout System and throughout the Americas as the exclusive distributor of the vjoon K4 Publishing System, is proud to look back on its rich history and excited to look ahead toward a bright future. The company offers and continues to develop its own software in addition to selling and supporting K4. MEI boasts a user community of more than 2,400 publications in 53 countries.
Jenkintown, PA - MEI, an Adobe premier development partner and a leading provider of software solutions for the publishing industry, celebrates its 20th anniversary this month. The company, known around the world for its flagship Page Director(R) Ad Layout System and throughout the Americas as the exclusive distributor of the vjoon K4 Publishing System, is proud to look back on its rich history and excited to look ahead toward a bright future.
"We're pleased to be able to say that we've survived multiple economic downturns, technological collapses, fluctuations in the publishing industry, wars... ahh, the good times," said Dennis McGuire, CEO and president. "Over the past 20 years, MEI has made it through everything that came our way."
McGuire founded MEI in 1990 with Robert Baldwin, now senior vice president of engineering. Today, the company offers and continues to develop its own software in addition to selling and supporting K4. MEI boasts a user community of more than 2,400 publications in 53 countries.
When the company began, it was based on solving a few production problems to make life easier for those on deadline. In 1989, McGuire, who had prior experience in magazines and advertising, was graphics editor at the Philadelphia Daily News. In his spare time, he was developing an automated, electronic planning system that tracked married pages and content placement while managing color configurations; these complicated tasks normally required manual input from experienced people and a lot of lead time.
Meanwhile, Baldwin was working as an executive at Imprint Newspapers, a publishing and printing firm in Hartford, CT, and the first newspaper group to have an entirely Macintosh-based workflow. Baldwin was using his own homemade software, which he called Paginator, to manage ad layout for Imprint's titles.
The two did not know each other, but they were independently building MEI's first product.
After learning of each other's projects and considering the possibilities of merging them into one commercial system, Baldwin and McGuire met and decided to collaborate. They spent the latter part of 1989 writing, designing and testing, using the increasingly popular Macintosh platform to ride the new wave of desktop publishing. In January 1990, they incorporated under the name Managing Editor Inc.
MEI debuted Page Director, its new editorial, advertising and page-planning solution, at several tradeshows that year to positive reviews and much interest. The company's first customers were in Australia and the United Kingdom, which, since MEI was originally based out of McGuire's suburban Philadelphia home, created a strange schedule of support calls at all hours.
It wasn't long before MEI started to grow stateside, however. The company's major breakthrough came when The Washington Post purchased Page Director along with QuarkXPress to produce its national weekly edition. Once MEI was able to point to the well-known U.S. paper as a customer, its user base expanded quickly, both nationally and internationally.
Many MEI customers focused on Page Director's advertising layout features. The company took this into account while developing its next product, Ad Director, which would later be renamed Page Director Ad Layout System. ALS quickly became MEI's flagship product and is used by more publishers worldwide than any other ad layout solution today.
Another major milestone was MEI's development of an entirely automated production workflow system at The Daily Racing Form. Thanks to a customized version of Page Director, The Daily Racing Form was able to automatically perform a full day's worth of manual work in just a few minutes and eventually produced more than 2,000 pages per day for more than 100 zones.
This specialized job evolved into MEI's Page Director Classified Layout System (CLS), the world's most complex and powerful classified pagination system at the time - so powerful, in fact, that MEI had to purchase special Apple hardware to demonstrate it. Employees would be forced to lug the computer in a special carrying case for demos, sometimes even buying it a companion seat on flights. (Some also demanded the computer's in-flight meals.)
"We knew the hardware would catch up with the software, but we would already be prepared for it, and that kept us at the forefront of the industry," said senior vice president of business development Mark Leister, a longtime MEI employee and former travel companion to the specialized CLS machine. "That's exactly the kind of forward thinking that has helped MEI stay ahead of the curve for the past two decades."
MEI received special recognition in 1999 and 2000, when it was named a laureate in the Computerworld Smithsonian Collection. The company's Roundhouse(R) Ad Tracking System and Page Director Ad Layout System have both been honored by the Smithsonian in its permanent collection.
MEI took another significant step forward in 2002 when it joined forces with German software company vjoon as the exclusive distributor of the K4 Publishing System in the Americas. Expanding into the world of editorial workflow represented a new direction for MEI, which had previously focused mainly on planning and ad production. Since then, MEI has managed implementation, training and support of K4 in its region, which now includes more than 150 K4 installations and more than 9,700 users.
Looking ahead, McGuire said he's eager to see continued growth at MEI.
"As we've grown over the years, we've always recognized the need to adapt to changes in the publishing industry and capitalize on them," McGuire said. "That's still our plan for the future: to always have a willingness to adapt."

ProteMac introduces ProteMac Security Suite 1.0 for Mac OS X - Published on 01/19/10
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ProteMac today announces ProteMac Security Suite 1.0 for Mac OS X. ProteMac Security Suite is an internet security package for comprehensive protection of Mac computers against all kinds of software threats, such as spyware, Trojans, viruses, unwanted intrusions and network attacks. Offering powerful protection, reliability and simplicity, it is aimed to protect both individual computers and corporate networks from dangerous attacks that may generate from internet or local network.
Saint-Petersburg, Russia - Computer software company ProteMac, already known for such products as ProteMac Netmine, ProteMac Meter and ProteMac Keybag, today announces ProteMac Security Suite - an internet security package for comprehensive protection of Mac computers against all kinds of software threats, e.g. spyware, Trojans, viruses, unwanted intrusions and network attacks.
ProteMac Security Suite includes two products: ProteMac Netmine and ProteMac Meter - a firewall and a network traffic logger. This is a perfect combination for providing a Mac user with superior security - both in the Internet and within a local network.
ProteMac Netmine included in the program suite is a firewall. It is aimed to protect both individual computers and corporate networks from dangerous attacks that may generate from internet or local network. ProteMac Netmine is a two-way firewall, so that all incoming and outgoing traffic can be easily monitored and controlled. The application alarms when an unauthorized, suspicious or hostile entry is attempted.
A user can define whether the firewall should utilize a default-deny policy, a default-allow policy or manual mode. ProteMac Netmine is indispensable for Internet safety-aware users - it prevents the unauthorized access to a computer, thus protecting the system from accidental or malicious harm.
A standard network traffic logger is an application that keeps logs from network usage, that is, how many bytes was sent and received from your network interface. It is essential for maintaining a safe network and diagnosing network and Internet connections and speeds.
ProteMac Security Suite contains ProteMac Meter, an advanced kind of a traffic logger. The program allows a user to view what applications access the Internet and/or the local network, how much traffic and bandwidth is used by any certain application and displays real time connection speed. ProteMac Meter not only alarms a user if a specified bandwidth or traffic volume is reached, but also pinpoints which programs may be causing problems.
All the statistics can be viewed in daily, weekly or monthly formats. The program can provide an advanced user with such additional information as remote address/port, total transferred bytes, average speed, and is understandable and convenient for a common user. Powerful protection, reliability and simplicity are the key aspects of ProteMac Security Suite. We have made a great effort to develop an efficient product.
Feature highlights include:
* Protection from viruses, spyware, Trojan horses, worms, bots and rootkits with the two-way firewall
* Network security maintenance
* Network monitoring
* Detailed information of all incoming and outgoing TCP/IP traffic and data
* Network activity real time visualization
