Folsom, CA, March 24, 2009 – Freepath, Inc. (www.freepath.com), providers of technology to enable live digital content sharing, launched the commercial release of Freepath 2.0 and its companion myFreepath content sharing community. Last August, the Freepath 2.0 beta version attracted thousands of users ranging from speakers to sales professionals to teachers.
Freepath enhances how people deliver live presentations using their digital assets. A variety of files and websites can be easily organized into a ‘playlist’ for non-linear access on demand. Freepath lets users show anything from the web seamlessly with their favorite content on their PC resulting in dynamic presentations of PowerPoint slides, videos, images, music and documents such as PDFs, Word and Excel.
Freepath’s ease-of-use and portability is a significant breakthrough to previous communication boundaries. Freepath integrates a companion community called ‘myFreepath’ where users have online storage to seamlessly share playlists with private groups or public audiences worldwide. In this manner, Freepath acts as a knowledge transfer platform for businesses, government agencies, schools and universities, churches, social networks and beyond.
“We are improving the way everyday users show and share their digital stuff,” said John Stone, Freepath’s CEO. “Freepath makes it easy for people to put their content to use in productive and creative ways. This means people will significantly reduce the time and cost for delivering engaging and effective presentations.”
