1) Clean-Up Your Web Searches with Dogpile
Different search engines return different search results. The more
engines you use the more results you get. Dogpile is a unique
search engine because it compiles results from the top search
engines into one clean combined search results list.
Dogpile uses Google, Yahoo, MSN, ASK and more to locate your
search. Dogpile also has the capability to search just images, or
video, or news as well as a white and yellow page look-up engine.
Once results are retrieved, the innovative technology used by
Dogpile goes to work removing duplicates and analyzing the results
to help ensure the best results top the list. In the end you get a
comprehensive and relevant list of results.
Clean up your web searching with Dogpile...

2) PimpFish and askSam - Save & Search Images and Movies
Last month we gave you a special offer on PimpFish - a great
product for saving images and movies to your computer from any web
page. PimpFish and askSam make a great team.
Use PimpFish to automatically locate and save pictures and movies
to your computer from any web page. Then import the movies or
pictures into askSam. Use askSam fields to enter categories,
titles, notes and other information for searching. Never lose a
downloaded video or image again.
With askSam you can attach an image or video to a document, link
to it in its original location or just save the file name and
path in an askSam document. By adding notes and other keywords
askSam becomes the perfect way to find any media item quickly.
To learn more about importing, attaching and linking pictures and
movies in askSam see Chapter 13 of the askSam User's Guide or
download our free Media Template from:
http://www.asksam.com/templates/downloads-template.asp
If you haven't tried PimpFish there is still a special $10.00 off
offer available to Surf Report subscribers...

3) FREE eBook - Don Quixote
Last month, for my 10th Wedding Anniversary, I treated my wife to
a ballet. We saw Don Quixote performed by the Moscow Festival
Ballet. As soon as I returned I grabbed the text and created an
askSam ebook so I could read the parts we saw in the ballet. I
hope you enjoy it too.
See: http://www.asksam.com/ebooks/don-quixote
NOTE: Don-Quixote is a very lengthy novel. Why not let your
computer read it to you. TextAloud can read any screen to you -
including askSam eBooks, web pages, emails, documents and more.
It can even convert text on screen to MP3 so you can take Don
Quixote or other information with you on your portable media
player. http://www.asksam.com/textaloud.asp
****************************************************************
4) FREE askSam Template - Downloads
Save information about downloaded files, programs, videos,
pictures and more in askSam. The askSam Downloads template allows
you to create a document for each file you download and enter
specific information about that download like date downloaded,
title, description, file name, location, keywords, category, notes
and more.
Don't lose another download. Don't struggle to figure out a
download by it's file name. Let askSam help you organize and
search all of your downloads.

5) askSam Custom Solution - Fighting White Collar Crime & Fraud
The UK Patent Office specializing in Intellectual Property crime
and the UK Ministry of Science have employed askSam as a National
Model and solution.
Dauphine, powered by askSam, is a product that has been 2 1/2
years in the making. It is a high-end product designed
specifically for agencies, governments, and companies interested
in tracking and prosecuting White Collar Crime, Fraud, Patent
Fraud, Intellectual Property Fraud and more.
From incident, to arrest, to the moment of prosecution, Dauphine
is able to track incidents, map criminal relationships for
organized crime, work with analyst products, track evidence and
allow agencies and organizations to work together to pool
information.
If you are interested in this solution or another custom solution
from askSam contact Jim Hartman at 1-800-800-1997 or
jwhartman@asksam.com.

6) Free Product - Starter - Manage Your StartUp Programs
Starter is a startup manager, that allows you to view and manage
all the programs that are starting automatically whenever Windows
boots. It lists all the hidden registry entries, as well as the
common Startup Folder items as well. You can choose to safely
disable selected entries, edit them or delete them altogether (if
you know what you're doing). Expert users can even add their own
entries. Nice interface, easy to use, no documentation though (but
hardly needed).
