RADUS New Media Platform Transforms Digital Content User Experience

Posted on: Thursday, 30 October 2008, 09:00 CDT

RADUS, Inc. today unveiled a new media hub platform that allows users to simultaneously discover, search, share, and view digital-rich media across leading computer, mobile, and social networking services, including Facebook and MySpace.

RADUS(TM) (ray-dee-us) was designed to address one of the major issues confronting online content delivery -- the lack of a consistent user experience -- cited by half of all senior industry executives surveyed as the main barrier to mass consumer adoption of digital-rich media, according to a recent Accenture Global Media Study. RADUS transforms the way consumers experience digital-rich content by enabling them to view all their favorite media types under one roof while making it easy to explore new areas of interest.

Free to consumers, RADUS' new media hub streamlines content discovery and navigation, offering consumers quick and easy access to hundreds of mainstream and user generated news, sports, and entertainment channels from leading broadcasters, bloggers, directors, musicians, photographers, and more.

"Today, you're forced to jump between an endless array of news, entertainment, and social sites just to keep up. RADUS solves this problem by offering consumers a new approach, one that brings together the best in online media and social networking in a way that's visually stunning and remarkably easy-to-use," says Scott Rankine, CEO of RADUS, Inc.

Customizable:

RADUS provides quick, one-click access to mainstream, vertical, and niche content and can be easily customized to suit individual needs. Users can create their own personal media hub, add personalized feeds, change skins, and much more.

"We recognize that an appealing visual interface matters," adds Rankine. "People want to be able to view content in a way that works for them." RADUS dramatically enhances consumers' online experience, eliminating complexity and concerns over media formats, including where a particular piece of content resides on the web.

Social Networking & Sharing:

RADUS makes it easy to connect with friends and other users who share common interests. The RADUS widget supports dozens of leading social sites, letting users share their favorite videos, photos, and blogs on the fly. Groundbreaking widget features include comprehensive channel navigation, search, share, and content display capabilities.

Academy Award winning director Michael Moore's latest film -- SLACKER UPRISING -- documenting his controversial nationwide get-out-the-vote tour during the last weeks of the 2004 Presidential Campaign is being broadcast in its entirety commercial free until election night at RADUS.com.
