InfoBuoy - The Internet Simplified

With the launch of InfoBuoy (http://www.infobuoy.com) Internet users everywhere will be able to harness the power of many of the world's biggest, best and coolest sites - all from one simple Web page.

(PRWEB) May 17, 2007 -- Utilizing the latest Web 2.0 techniques, this new site combines everything from shopping to research, reference, games, movies and plenty more. So simple is InfoBuoy that it only requires one page load. Any other requests from users are handled behind the scenes so "page jumping" is cut down drastically.

Says David Mercer of InfoBuoy: "We wanted to provide a clean and simple environment for users to enjoy the best the Internet has to offer. When it came to building our services we decided that instead of trying to out-search Google, or out-shop eBay and Amazon, we would provide their services directly to our users.

What this means is that anything you can do from one of these sites, you can do from our site. The value of this model lies in the fact that everything is kept together in a single, easy to navigate page. This means that people can do their shopping on any number of stores, while playing a game or doing some research on sites like WikiPedia or Answers.com without having to waste time navigating the Web.

What's more, InfoBuoy keeps its finger on the Net's pulse and as soon as useful, new and interesting sites and services show on the horizon we can plug them into our site. Users are then empowered by simply being exposed to the latest and greatest Websites around - broadening their horizons, while simplifying their browsing."

To complement the theme of simplicity, InfoBuoy has chosen a familiar and uncomplicated layout, eschewing fancy graphics and a crowded interface in favour of a plain and simple, easy to follow design. The idea is to provide a convenient "base camp" from which to explore the rest of Internet.
