Thomas Technology Solutions Develops Digital Publishing Website for the Petroleum Exploration Society of Great Britain

Posted on: Thursday, 17 May 2007, 06:00 CDT

Thomas Technology Solutions, a systems integrator and software developer, has digitized the monthly member newsletters for The Petroleum Exploration Society of Great Britain (PESGB). The newsletters, roughly 100 pages per issue, will be made available online to The PESGB's members. ThomasTech will also be hosting the site at their secure hosting center. The newsletters in the digital format will be used in addition to the printed newsletters and will be published online on a monthly basis.

"We felt that the time was right to produce our printed newsletter in digital format. ThomasTech provided us with a very good, easy, and cost-effective way of doing this," says Gail Williamson, Executive Director at The PESGB. "The digital format has enabled us to provide an additional service to our members and enhance our profile within the oil industry."

With the new digital versions, international members can now have immediate access to the monthly newsletters rather than wait for the printed version to arrive by mail. Other advantages to the digital versions include the following:

Quick to market

No additional effort on The PESGB's part

High quality PNG (Portable Network Graphic format) pages instead of PDFs

No need to download a proprietary reader as mainstreams browser can view the digital pages

Quicker downloads than using PDFs of the pages

Fast, full text and phrase searching capability for retrospective searching of the back files

Hit highlighting of search terms on the page so the relevant section can be easily found

Linking to external advertisers' websites

Usage reporting included
