Yuuguu Transforms Web Collaboration and Conferencing Market


MANCHESTER, England, September 24 /PRNewswire/ --

- Company hand-selected to launch groundbreaking web collaboration tools
at prestigious DEMOfall 2007 conference

Yuuguu (www.yuuguu.com) announced the official release of its Yuuguu web
collaboration tools at DEMOfall 2007 - the premier launchpad for the world's
most promising technologies, products, and services. Designed for an
increasingly mobile world, Yuuguu helps people work together remotely, across
different platforms, with as many colleagues as needed, just as if they were
sitting in the same room.

Yuuguu, derived from the Japanese word for fusion, enables users to see,
share, and take control of each other's computer screens and applications.
Users can ask anyone to securely share their computer screen in real time,
whether they're on a PC or Mac platform - and without having to download or
install any software. Colleagues just need a browser and Internet connection
to participate.

Free, easy-to-install, and easy-to-use, Yuuguu can be used by team
members working on a project or friends sharing applications. Colleagues and
friends can message and chat while they share screens for enhanced
collaboration. The platform includes high quality, low cost voice
conferencing services for one-to-one and one-to-many voice calls. And
Yuuguu's integrated presence status brings a sense of community to web
sharing, as users can see when friends are online and click to invite them.

"Historically web collaboration tools have focused on online
presentations - allowing enterprise organizations to deliver training and
presentations to a passive audience," said Anish Kapoor, Chief Executive
Officer at Yuuguu. "Yuuguu takes web collaboration to a new level by
integrating community, messaging, and collaboration in a whole new, and more
natural way."

"Yuuguu understands the importance of the human ingredient in technology.
Their collaboration platform incorporates a sense of community that brings
great value to both business and personal applications," said Chris Shipley,
executive producer of DEMO. "I look forward to following Yuuguu's future
after DEMO."

Yuuguu was hand-picked among hundreds of aspiring companies to launch
their new products and services at DEMOfall 2007. The invitation-only event
has established a reputation for spotting emerging trends in the technology
industry and identifying innovative products and services most likely to have
a significant impact on the marketplace in the coming year. The conference
runs from September 24-26 and is held in San Diego, California.
