Year End Results soonToday, or most likely tomorrow we should see the year end financials posted to SEDAR. Though the growth of the Ortsbo platform won't have had an effect on these numbers, it will in the coming months and years ahead. But the other divisions contributing to the results have been no slouches either:
ItiBiti
Launched in 2008, ItiBiti delivers a private-label consumer engagement platform for the computer desktop (with a mobile version in development for Q1 2011). This app provides an all-in-one social media entertainment and communications platform that is fully customized for each client, providing the ability to launch with their own exclusive content, promotions and advertising. The app is designed to instantly connect the brand with consumers the moment they log-on to their computer.
This creates a truly unique custom branded environment that offers exclusive content, sophisticated communication tools and access to their favorite online communities, providing our clients a powerful opportunity to create deeper and richer relationships with their customers. This customized private label communications platform extends the reach of traditional web properties, while acting as a catalyst to drive web traffic back to a destination.

Ad Taffy integrates with existing online advertising technology to create an instant “call to action”, connecting people to a Brand location both physically and communicatively through any landline or mobile telephone connection. The technology integrates database, rich media display, and geo-positioning technology into one cohesive package, removing the consumer frustration and guesswork currently found with location finding.
