TimeBridge Named "Cool Vendor" by Leading Analyst Firm

Vendors selected for the "Cool Vendor report" are innovative, impactful and intriguing.

San Francisco (PRWEB) April 30, 2008 -- TimeBridge has been included in the list of "Cool Vendors" in the "Cool Vendors in the High-Performance Workplace, 2008" report, released on April 4, 2008 by Gartner, Inc.

According to the report: "Cool Vendors in the high-performance workplace seek to optimize social communities by bringing down some barriers through more effective interfaces and by bridging some Web 2.0 product gaps that have frustrated and isolated some users."

"The Cool Vendors report has selected innovative and impactful technology solutions on the market that help make busy professionals more efficient and effective, and we believe TimeBridge's inclusion validates the impact and importance of our technology," said Yori Nelken, CEO of Timebridge. "Now more than ever workers are faced with the challenge of managing hectic schedules - our goal is to simplify the messy process of scheduling so people can focus on other, important tasks."

TimeBridge's free scheduling software is the most efficient way to schedule meetings with large groups or individuals across time zones, calendaring systems and companies. TimeBridge allows users to easily schedule meetings, share their availability with others, and connect directly with calendars including Outlook, Google Calendar, and soon, Apple iCal. While online calendars help users track their time, TimeBridge facilitates the social, and often complex process of getting busy people together -- in person, on the phone or online.
