eDOORWAYS SEES “SOLVE” BETA 1.0 SIGNUPS INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY, WITH STRONG NATIONAL INTEREST

December 9, 2009

eDoorways has approximately 1,500 registrants ready for the holiday opening of SOLVE Beta 1.0.

We announced today that the mid-to-late December release of “SOLVE” Beta Version 1.0 is on target, with the company having amassed well over 1,200 additional pre-registrants – those wishing to be first in line for the opportunity to use “SOLVE” this holiday season.

eDoorways’ “SOLVE” Beta 1.0 platform certainly seems to be poised for discovery.  Springboarded by the grass roots campaign the company launched prior to its unveiling event, eDoorways has afforded itself great visibility.  Aside from its target audience in Austin, businesses and consumers from across the country have made inquiries as to the next stop on eDoorways’ roll out schedule and are signing up.

“We are leveraging our broad exposure and the strong national interest that is being demonstrated to allow all interested parties, irrespective of their geographic location, to sign up – the first 100 registrants came just days after the unveiling of ‘SOLVE’ back in October,” stated Gary Kimmons.  “Shortly after that, we were over 200.  Once we began to see more activity and growth from our social media efforts, we were very confident that we’d have the ability to have at least a thousand pre-registered businesses set to use ‘SOLVE’ this month.  Since the initial unveiling of ‘SOLVE,’ we have seen well over 1,200 additional businesses join those who originally signed up.”

“The possibilities are endless and we’ve yet to deploy our full marketing plan,” stated Kristen Claflin, Brand Marketing and Site Monetization Consultant for eDoorways.  “By the time we’re into the release of ‘SOLVE’ beta versions 1.5 and 2.0, which are both scheduled for release during the first quarter of the New Year, we’d expect to see our business registrants at least double if not triple.”

Sources close to our company are fairly confident that eDoorways will outpace our estimates to possibly pre-register more than 500 additional businesses prior to release; just early enough for users to try v1.0 through the holidays.


eDoorways Engages Top Open Source Developer DPCI to Assist with Platform’s Acceleration to Web 3.0

December 8, 2009

eDoorways is using Drupal experts to make open source conversions to expedite development of our doorways and mobile integration.

We announced today that our decision to go Open Source, in an effort to expedite our Web 3.0 development and the first incarnation of the platform’s mobile applications, was partly hinged on our ability to attract one of the top developers within the open source environment.  DPCI, an interactive technology agency which delivers integrated content management solutions, has agreed to assist eDoorways in converting our Internet platform to Drupal, an Open Source Content Management System written in PHP and distributed under the GNU General Public License.

Gary Kimmons said, “DPCI comes highly recommended by a number of organizations that have implemented Drupal in their enterprise.  As an Acquia Platinum partner, DPCI brings with them a specific skill set in programming along with a design expertise that has afforded them a wealth of knowledge in areas related to our move to enhance Web 2.0 social networking and Web 3.0 functionality.  DPCI has quickly assimilated into our team and should prove to be an outstanding contributor.  Their in-depth, proven experience developing systems for nationally branded entities is already serving us well.”

Joseph Bachana, President and CEO of DPCI said, “We’re very enthusiastic about eDoorways’ plans to leverage Drupal to support their ground-breaking interactive platform that will tie together people and businesses globally. We see Drupal as being a natural fit into the social publishing, Web content management platform, and ultimately, the Semantic Web needs of the eDoorways suite of products.”

Kimmons concluded, “When Apple opened up the iPhone to third-party apps, it made the device far more useful and popular, faster, than it would otherwise have been.  Going Open Source does much the same for eDoorways in that literally thousands of people write code to enhance Drupal and keep it evolving.  That constant programmer contribution translates into continuous technological development and growth for our platform at virtually no cost as compared to proprietary development.  This is why we at eDoorways are looking forward to working with our partners at DPCI to move into the future with as robust, stable, secure and valuable a technology as we can create.”

Proprietary software and software encumbered with heavy licensing issues are seemingly becoming a thing of the past.  People close to our company indicate that our management’s decision to go open source played a major role in AJENE WATSON, LLC’s decision to grant eDoorways a 300% increase in our company’s original credit facility.  Although not yet quantified, sources knowledgeable of our original development plan suggest that up to 20% was trimmed from the 2009 cost estimates alone; as the move to Drupal mostly eliminated major server and licensing fees.

With our company’s first beta version of “SOLVE” (Beta 1.0) on target for release sometime this December 09, management strongly believes that with the addition of DPCI users will likely see all of the “real-time” possibilities eDoorways intends to offer with the emerging Web 3.0 becoming a reality much sooner than ever anticipated.

eDoorways Hires Telcordia to Begin Prep Work On Its Web 3.0 Model

December 2, 2009

We have engaged Telcordia Technologies Inc., a global leader in the development of fixed, mobile and broadband communications software and services for Communications Service Providers (CSPs), enterprises, suppliers and government entities, to aid in the development and implementation of our Web 3.0 services platform.  The primary focus of the effort will be to more definitely forecast the shape and functionality of Web 3.0 and integrate it in to the evolving eDoorways platform.

The first step will be the drafting of a white paper followed by a roundtable discussion involving a wide variety of authorities in such fields as artificial intelligence, expert systems and semantic web technology.  The purpose of the roundtable is to forecast the shape and functionality of Web 3.0 and then to build eDoorways’ platform to take fullest advantage of those innovations.

Gary Kimmons explained, “The industry has gone from Web 1.0, which was static web pages back before the DotCom bust, to the Web 2.0, which features social media like Twitter, YouTube and Facebook.   The qualitative differences are continuing to evolve, and Web 3.0 is going to be a much different, more personalized experience.

Kimmons continued, “While we are continuing to build out the initial beta release of the platform within a Web 2.0 environment, we are exceptionally conscious of the need to prepare for the next quantum shift in information technology.  In order to do that effectively, we have enlisted the aid of Telcordia, a leader in the development of the future of the web.”

Darrell Woelk, Senior Scientist, Advanced Technology Solutions, Telcordia, said, “Web 3.0, also known as the semantic web, will be about openness across platforms, protocols and databases.  Imagine a web connected not only to your personal computer and cellphone but also to your car, home and all of the appliances you own.  All will be interconnected with the power and intelligence to manage them according to a person’s individual, dynamic and highly customized preferences.  Our work with eDoorways will help enable these and related capabilities to be delivered with significant social and commercial benefits, particularly in the business-to-consumer market space.

Mr. Kimmons concluded, “Web 3.0 will offer every man, woman and child richer, quicker and easier access to information than ever before, but to take advantage of all it will have to offer, a business must anticipate what is coming down the road and build its technology to suit those developments.  With the help of Telcordia, eDoorways will be designed to take advantage of all that Web 3.0 will have to offer.”

eDoorways Accelerates Platform’s Web 3.0 Integration With Move to Drupal

December 1, 2009

We have chosen to rely on Drupal, an Open Source Content Management System written in PHP and distributed under the GNU General Public License, to expedite our Web 3.0 development and delivery of SOLVE version “Beta 2.0″ which will include the first incarnation of the platform’s mobile applications.

“Drupal is a globally established Open Source software with over 2 million downloads since 2001,” stated Gary Kimmons, “Open Source is indeed the future of the Internet.”

“Google’s cell phone operating system Android is Open Source. The White House has just shifted the whitehouse.gov website to Drupal. The Defense Department’s Chief Information Officer David Wennergren has put out a memo recently saying that Open Source software can be advantageous in pursuit of the military’s missions.”

“Given all of the current uses people have for Drupal, the caliber of the organizations moving to Open Source, and the rigorous testing Drupal has undergone in the real world, it [Drupal] is clearly suited to eDoorways’ ambitions. What’s even more wonderful, through Drupal, the shift to Open Source doesn’t slow down our development in the slightest. In fact, Drupal will accelerate not only the development of our Web 3.0 platform but also influence the early release of the more robust versions of the first doorway.”

Sources close to the company indicate that this move has always been a part of the original plan for eDoorways to establish an open API environment. This gives eDoorways an affiliation with many of those developers who are working on Web 3.0.

Kimmons continued, “Our plan has always been to pursue the Open Source alternative because it gives us increased flexibility and it will allow other developers to integrate into our system, bringing greater value to our service offerings. Drupal has proven itself to be a preferred software for us to use as we build our 3.0 platform and integrate each of our developing doorways into it. We are pursuing a pre-planned, step-by-step design approach that calls for this move at this time. It was originally designed into the development schedule we announced and it will play a large role in our upcoming release of SOLVE.”

Kimmons concluded, “Among supercomputers, 469 of the fastest 500 are running one kind of Linux or another, an Open Source operating system. eDoorways wants to capitalize on the advantages of Open Source software by building its platform with Drupal.”

With our first beta version of “SOLVE” on target for a mid December 09 release, people close to the company express much enthusiasm over Drupal as this development enhances the overall potential of additional versions of “SOLVE” slated for release during 2010: Beta 2.0, Beta 2.5, and the platform’s “SOLVE” Version 3.0.


eDoorways Strikes Gold with Social Media Marketing

November 25, 2009

Today we announced we have quickly surpassed 20,000 followers on our Twitter campaign.  We intend to incorporate the use of Twitter and other social media outlets as part of our initial support strategy when the SOLVE doorway version “Beta 1.0” is released this December.

Ann Collins, SOLVE Project Manager and Social Media Consultant for the eDoorways Corporation, says, “eDoorways has impressively surpassed the 20,000 follower mark in less than three months on Twitter.  Many companies are successfully using the connections they have on Twitter to better support their customer base.  However, one mistake they make–one that eDoorways is certainly attempting to avoid–is to go after quantity rather than quality when it comes to their contacts.”

Twitter is a great way to gather relevant input about a company’s product and services.   It also allows a company significant insight into how a company can best serve its customers.  However, Collins contends that while she could have easily moved the company past 3x to 5x’s the followers within the same time frame, the best way to get the most out of this social media effort is to build each relationship by hand – one follower at a time.  This method is likely to produce more prospective customers, business, supporters and even perhaps contribute to a company’s growing shareholder base.

Gary Kimmons, Chairman and CEO of eDoorways, states, “With over 25 years experience, Ann is considered an expert in her field of project management and social media.  With her assistance, the efforts we began with our corporate blog to promote corporate transparency has increased tenfold; in fact, with the emphasis shifting away from the blog as a means of communication and over to our twitter account and other social media vehicles.  This is truly an exciting time as the relevant input gathered via the social media push has assisted in developing our focus groups and expediting our beta releases beginning with version ‘Beta 1.0’ within the next 30 days or so.”

The “Beta 1.0” release of SOLVE in mid December will transition the company into using social media as a method of connecting businesses and consumers in “real-time,” at the exact moment of consumer need.

Ann Collins stated, “Because the social aspect is so important to how each doorway will ultimately function, eDoorways has made it a point to become active and develop relationships in the top existing social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook. One of the ways eDoorways has used various social media outlets is to convey the company’s philosophy, strategy and goals, which has been a great method for engaging people in conversations about creativity, empowerment and technology.”

She added, “eDoorways has been very careful to hand pick people and companies that are in their target market and who are considered thought leaders, whom they can also learn from. The work they have put into creating these relationships makes them extremely relevant.  Not only are they connecting and creating relationships on Twitter, but the eDoorways Facebook fan site is also growing quickly and has become a very active community of people interested in the eDoorways philosophy and the progress of the company’s service offering.”

Sources close to the company believe that by the time SOLVE “Beta 1.0” is released, eDoorways will have an astonishing several thousand Austin Texas business preregistered to use the “real-time” platform – also anticipating extreme viral growth in 2010 and an inclination to roll out nationally much sooner than expected.


eDoorways Receives Significant Increase to Existing Credit Facility

November 24, 2009

We announced today that AJENE WATSON LLC’s Lending Division has boosted our original $500,000 Line of Credit 300%.  We will receive a $1.5 million addition to our existing $500,000 credit facility following successful negotiations with the lending division of AJENE WATSON LLC, bringing the total available in the company’s revolver to $2.0 million.

Gary Kimmons said, “With the increase in our revolving line of credit, we believe we now have sufficient liquidity to not only bring our business plan into action at an accelerated pace but also to support the forward progress of complementing our endeavors.”

Ajene Watson, Managing Member of AJENE WATSON, LLC, stated, “The expansion of the credit facility with eDoorways should be seen as our vote of confidence as to the direction of the company and in its management.”

The financial business development and management division of Watson’s firm initially took the lead when AJENE WATSON, LLC was engaged by us to a 15-month consulting agreement in early 2008.  After nearly a year of assisting the company with restructuring, organizing, developing and deploying its business plan, the lending division of Watson’s firm determined the viability of providing the web-based consumer problem-solving gateway, lifestyle information source, and online business-to-consumer marketplace with a non-collateralized credit facility of $500,000.  At an interest rate of prime plus 2% and no requirement of registration of common stock convertibles, this financing offered the company greater flexibility with limited market dilution.

“We signed on to eDoorways when the company was trading at $0.006 per share, had two hundred or so shareholders, roughly a $180,000 market cap trading by appointment, and for all intent and purposes, not much of a company structure,” said Watson.  “We renewed our consulting agreement with the company for 6 additional months in October of ‘09 and today, eDoorways has traded as high as $0.15 per share, has approximately 4,000 shareholders and growing, a $30 million plus market cap and maintains a consistent trading volume of a couple of million shares daily.  The company also now boasts a consulting/management staff of nearly 30 professionals and entities, including PhDs, professors, government technology contractors and professionals with access to the upper levels of the Department of Defense.  The company is also demonstrating better corporate governance, financial protocol and overall operations.  There is no question that the company has made significant quantifiable progress in the past two years.”

Similar to the original $500,000 capital infusion, the new credit facility of $1.5mm is also a non collateralized loan, payable year-end 2010 at a rate of prime plus 2%.

Sources close to our company indicate that despite intervening holidays, due to the current financial health of the company and available man power, eDoorways appears to be on schedule and should release its Beta 1.0 in mid to late December – keeping the company on target for the roll out of the additional versions of “SOLVE” (Beta 2.0, Beta 2.5, and the platform’s “SOLVE” Version 3.0) slated for release during 2010.


eDoorways Seeks to Increase Current Credit Facility

November 12, 2009

At our request, Ajene Watson LLC’s Lending Division is likely to boost our original $500,000 line of credit.

eDoorways, which in 2009 has raised approximately $1.25 million seeks to secure additional capital by increasing the current revolving credit facility in place with AJENE WATSON, LLC.  The initial credit facility of $500,000 was established January 2009 for which the company pays an interest rate of prime plus 2%.

Gary Kimmons, Chairman and CEO of eDoorways Corporation, said, “Our strategy has always been to fund only as we need it, with the funds pre-arranged from the best available source.  The original $500,000 line of credit was sufficient when we established it back in January, but our business has grown quickly, and our need for short-term liquidity has grown as well.”

Ajene Watson, Managing Member of AJENE WATSON, LLC, a private lending and financial business development and management firm, stated, “eDoorways has made immense progress in the last few months.  We believe there is good merit in Mr. Kimmons’ case to expand the credit facility.  We’re fairly confident we will see a successful delivery of ‘Beta 1.0’ in December, therefore supporting our belief that an increase in the company’s current line will be a well placed endeavor.”

Watson continued, “The credit facilities we generally offer, whereby the company is a client of the business development and management division of our firm, are normally non-dilutive.  These finance vehicles do not require registrations or collateral stock of any kind to secure the transactions and the company has the option to repay us in cash within a reasonable timeframe and without a prepayment penalty.”

Sources close to the situation indicate that based on the strong working relationship between the two companies, it is expected that the revolving credit facility could possibly be increased by at least an additional $1 million.


eDoorways Set to Release Beta Version of the “SOLVE” Doorway

November 11, 2009

We announced today, that due to our success in nearing the early completion of the soft launch phases, which began with the October 1st Unveiling of “SOLVE” – expected completion prior to year end, we will move to release the platform’s Beta 1.0 version of the SOLVE doorway in mid-December.

“This will be the functional ‘SOLVE’ that our shareholders and the online users have been asking for,” said Gary Kimmons, Chairman and CEO of eDoorways Corporation.  “We have never been more happy than now to finally meet their request as Beta 1.0 will speak to the very core of what we all ultimately desire to see and achieve.”

Beta 1.0 contains enhancements and modifications resulting from focus group feedback along with the input from various professional development consultants.  Its base functionality will include such features as real-time chat between consumers, small businesses and advisors.  It will also give solution providers and advisors free initial access to PowerKey usage. While anyone will be able to visit and use the site, its primary objective is to allow those who have signed up for “SOLVE” to try it out and to jumpstart the full Austin launch.

As the second operational version of “SOLVE”, and first version fully accessible by the general public, Beta 1.0 will also give interested developers of relevant API’s a chance to begin introducing their software as value-added functionality.   This becomes an important development consideration as functionality will be added on an ongoing basis as we increase the robust nature of our service offering.

Mr. Kimmons also said, “The Beta 1.0 release is particularly intriguing because it hints at an even greater picture of an emerging global service offering. Beta 1.0 will set its sights on the heart of the SOLVE brand, which is the establishment of premium real-time connectivity between consumers and solution providers.   Subsequent beta version releases will build on this feature and will lead to more robust functionality in a relatively short period of time.”

Sources close to the company indicate that eDoorways has three additional versions slated for release during 2010:  Beta 2.0, Beta 2.5, and the platform’s “SOLVE” Version 3.0.

Mr. Kimmons concluded, “In all of its incarnations, the “SOLVE” doorway’s purpose is all about helping people who have a need to make “real-time connections with those that can immediately meet those needs.  As “SOLVE” evolves, that connection will become easier, faster and more valuable.”

eDoorways Provides International Audience Insight Into “LEARN” Doorway and eC Device, with Emphasis on Collaboration at a Successful Presentation During the ISTEC XVIIth General Assembly

November 3, 2009

eDoorways discussed the “LEARN” doorway and demoed its eC Device as part of the Company’s presentation at the Ibero-American Science and Technology Education Center’s (ISTEC) XVIIth Annual General Assembly on the Campus of the University of New Mexico (UNM) in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA. The presentation on Tuesday, October 27th, was so popular that the 200 people in attendance from various parts of Latin America, Spain, Portugal and the US requested a second demonstration on Wednesday, October 28th.

The theme of this year’s General Assembly is “Using Technology to Enable Collaboration, and Collaboration to Advance Science and Technology.” Speaking to this theme was the Founder and Executive Vice President of ISTEC, Dr. Ramiro Jordan. Also speaking was Dr. David J. Schmidly (President of UNM), Martin J. Chavez (Albuquerque, NM Mayor) and Dr. Mauro Miskulin (ISTEC President), amongst other esteemed educational, political and corporate guests. Invited to introduce eDoorways was the company’s lead consultant Ajene Watson, Managing Member of Ajene Watson LLC, a private lending and financial business development and management firm which has been working closely with the company.

In his introduction, Watson said, “The essence of technology is firmly rooted in the soil of education. From a rich earth of knowledge, anyone can become empowered. However, one empowered man can do very little all by himself. Collaboration must occur – and only from exhaustive and truly objective collaboration can we actually continue to positively advance as a society.”

Gary Kimmons, CEO of eDoorways, then spoke about the overall progress of eDoorways and why it is eDoorways is the perfect partner to collaborate with ISTEC. He said, “The purpose of eDoorways is to make the connection between teacher and student, customer and vendor — between any group of individuals who need ‘real-time’ contact to achieve a common purpose. If you think about it, that’s really everyone.”

Dr. Jack Crosscope, the developer of the highly praised SmartOne technology, followed Mr. Kimmons, giving a oral and written presentation, taking the audience though the possibilities of using the “LEARN” doorway to create courses in a collaborative effort, teaching through the learning technology, and the ease in learning as students.

Lastly, Ian Mitchell demonstrated the eC Device through a video that eDoorways shot, with the focus again on collaboration. The video, produced in Spanish by up and coming film producer Marton Varo, Jr., depicted Person A in one country attempting to dig a well, and he runs into a problem. From an iPhone, Person A presses his eDoorways App and searches for someone to assist him in “real-time” through the eDoorways platform. Another eDoorways user, Person B who is pinged, returns the ping connecting him directly to Person A. Person B then offers to help the individual dig the well at that exact moment in time.

Mr. Mitchell explained, “Person A, who is wearing the eC Device is able to show Person B exactly what they are seeing and doing in ‘real-time.’ Person B is then able to provide relevant instruction to Person A. Person B is also able to port over a video (viewed either on the iPhone or though the eC Device’s eye piece) of a well that had been built by another group previously, thus giving Person A an even clearer understanding of what is required to accomplish the goal of digging the well.”

Dozens of people, some who spoke little English but armed with translators, surrounded Dr. Crosscope and Mr. Mitchell for their specific disciplines. People close to the company who attended the event believe the general excitement causing the audience to congregate around eDoorways was due to the understanding of what the combination of LEARN, the eC Device and the general platform of eDoorways could mean for education, business, medicine and law enforcement, both domestically and internationally.

Dr. Ramiro Jordan stated, “The overall presentation was a great success. eDoorways became the belle of the ball with its presentation. This is why we requested that eDoorways repeat their demonstration on Wednesday. It was equally well-received, helping to create potential partnerships for deployment of the environment in various academic institutions. I anticipate that a significant partnership between ISTEC and eDoorways is brewing and may possibly take off quickly.”

Sources close to the company suggest that a marriage between the two groups would not only prove invaluable to the work of ISTEC members, but will instantly link eDoorways to a market of well over 18 million online users.

eDOORWAYS’ Revenue Plan

October 9, 2008

eDOORWAYS’ anticipated service offering stands unique when compared to other social networks that rely solely on huge traffic and the sale of advertising space to generate revenue.  eDOORWAYS will serve as both a social network as well as a “town square” eCommerce business platform to provide a unique mix of service offerings and revenue streams.  Here are several of the first anticipated sources of revenue:

Preferential placement fees - Consumers will come to eDOORWAYS with a problem or need, like getting a faulty hot water heater repaired.  Businesses will pay eDOORWAYS for the right to reserve key words specific to their location, types of service(s) they offer, product models, etc.   Example:  You repair hot water heaters, so you pay a fee to eDOORWAYS for the following words:  Rheem, Model 2950, service, repair, area code 78701, Austin.   This entitles you to be the first in line to extend a real-time “handshake” to a consumer in the 78701 area code in Austin with the same type of problem or need.  eDOORWAYS has delivered you a “gold nugget” prospect who is ready to purchase your service on the spot; you are therefore willing to pay a premium for this privilege.   For an average small business, the total fee could run from $50 to $200 a month on average based on how many key words the business may want to reserve.   This is somewhat like the Google revenue model where advertisers pay for preferred placement of their company or product, but this is much more valuable because the consumer has demonstrated an immediate need to act (i.e., a pre-qualified buyer) and is being connected on a real-time basis directly to the solution  – a specific business who can meet the consumer’s need.

Prepaid services/subscriptions – Businesses with eDOORWAYS storefronts will pay eDOORWAYS to subscribe to value-added services such as targeted marketing capabilities, text message alerts, real-time business activity reports by geographical location, back office accounting support, CRM support, and so on.  This will empower small businesses by giving them the same “reach” and horsepower as much larger companies with sophisticated marketing, customer relationship management, and accounting capabilities.

Advertising revenue – Businesses will pay eDOORWAYS for advertising space based on a cost per thousand views (CPM).  This is the “standard” revenue stream for existing social networks such as Facebook and MySpace.

Private label lease of the service -  Large corporations, trade groups, professional associations, and others will pay eDOORWAYS for a “custom” version of the service that is tailored to their own customer service website.   The service will carry their brand with the eDOORWAYS brand shown discretely on the screen as well (such as “Powered by Intel”).  For example, Sony Corporation leases eDOORWAYS’ service for its consumers.  You buy a radio that breaks 3 months later.  You go on Sony’s website and you’re directed to their customer service component that features eDOORWAYS technology.  You type in your problem and immediately, 4 stores in the vicinity pop up on the left side of the screen, each asking if they can assist you with your problem.  Meanwhile, Sony’s corporate representative pops up at the top of the screen, watching what’s going on to make sure the ball does not get dropped by their local representatives.   On the right side of the screen, both local and global “experts” stand ready to lend you a hand as they watch what Sony’s doing.  They share their experience and opinions about the best strategy for you to get your problem solved.  The experts may be existing customers of Sony, other Sony sources who know about the radio you’ve bought, the Sony distributor, etc.  Each expert will be rated by eDOORWAYS consumers regarding their credibility and professionalism.  Sony and others may lease the system from eDOORWAYS and we will operate it for them.

Just-in-time training and education revenues -  eDOORWAYS will offer consumers the ability to learn unique skills and knowledge offered by businesses and other entities via distance learning technology.  eDOORWAYS Corporation has one of the most sophisticated training delivery capabilities ever developed – it’s called Smart One.  Businesses will pay the Company to use Smart One to deliver their product and service training.  As an example, you need to put a new roof on your house because you live in Houston, where hurricane Ike recently paid a visit.  Home Depot wants to sell you the materials and is willing to teach you how to put the new roof on using eDOORWAYS’ Smart One technology as a distance learning delivery mechanism.  Home Depot will pay the Company for the use of the technology and delivery of the course to you at your home.

Transaction fees (the eCommerce platform) -  Ultimately, when eDOORWAYS has sufficient traffic on the site, the Company will begin charging a percentage of each transaction consummated.  So, using the previous example, if you buy a new hot water heater from a store, and the store got your business through eDOORWAYS, the store will pay eDOORWAYS 1% or 2% of the gross transaction.

The eDOORWAYS revenue plan calls for these to be our initial sources of revenue.  There are numerous others (including revenues from our verticals) that can be described as we continue.  As you can see, these are real ways to make money linked to real commerce, generated by putting buyers and sellers together to meet both of their needs in a unique new way.    At it’s core, the eDOORWAYS business model enables the purest form of capitalism – putting together someone who wants to buy with someone who has a service to sell.

eDOORWAYS Corporation is conservatively projecting net income of <$1.63M>, <$540K>, and <$289K> in the first three quarters of 2009 with net income of $432K in the fourth quarter of the year followed by net income of $1.21M in the first quarter of 2010.

Profit is projected to be $477K, $995K, $1.37M, and $1.88M in the four quarters of 2009 followed by profit of $2.54M in the first quarter of 2010.

Expenses are projected as $1.95M, $1.55M, $1.41M, and $1.37M for the four quarters of 2009 followed by $1.33M in the first quarter of 2010.

These numbers do not include anticipated revenues from possible vertical markets that management is investigating such as entertainment and education.  They are forward looking projections made by management that may vary considerably based on market and business conditions at the time of launch of the eDOORWAYS service offering.


eDOORWAYS – Brand Strength in The New Economy

December 4, 2008

America is going through fundamental changes that will affect all of us in 2009.  Fundamental structural change can be disconcerting because the events associated with it are often experienced as  “random” and “uncertain.”  Much of this is a matter of perspective.

In the past few months, an upside for eDOORWAYS has been that we have been able to sharpen our perspective.   It’s our perception that the changes we’re experiencing do bring challenges, but there are also significant opportunities.  Examples of opportunities that are now presenting themselves are in the areas of learning technology and charitable services.  More will be said about these opportunities in forthcoming announcements.

As these and other opportunities have presented themselves, it’s become apparent that there are fundamental strengths associated with the design of the eDOORWAYS brand that match well with the anticipated “new economy.”  The eDOORWAYS brand has always been about helping people find real solutions to their everyday problems using a “town square” platform to connect actual buyers with qualified sellers and service providers.  But it turns out that there is much more our brand and business model have to offer in our changing world.

The people who are coming to eDOORWAYS with ideas for vertical service offerings share common attributes.   All of their ideas reflect what’s going on in America right now.  The common words we hear are “responsibility”, “innovation” and “change.”  Each of these carries with it the connotation of action being applied, of making something happen.   In short, Americans know that the old game is over, and now we need to do things that are going to make a difference, both for ourselves as well as others.

And therein lies our strategic advantage.  It’s now clear that when people come to eDOORWAYS, they do so with the intention of “making something happen.”  They may be trying to solve a bothersome personal problem, teach themselves something they need to learn, or they may want to help someone else who is in dire need of assistance.  Irrespective of their objective, using eDOORWAYS they will be able to bring effective action to achieve the most desirable result.

Acknowledging this as our core strength, and with the proposition that new and even greater opportunities are sure to emerge, we are approaching our creation of the eDOORWAYS service offering and brand with a heightened appreciation for both flexibility and extensibility.   The design we create must allow for robust organic growth that accommodates multiple vertical service offerings.

So it turns out that eDOORWAYS has more than one door!   This proposition has interesting implications.  Many of those contacting us have observed that people often have problems finding relevant information on the web.  While today’s search engines are great, they have their limitations.  If you’re delving into subject matter with which you’re unfamiliar, you may be missing a great deal.  If you don’t know what questions to ask, the answers you’re going to receive are going to be limited.  Wouldn’t it be great if there were a way to pull all of the pieces together?  As eDOORWAYS evolves and its doors open we will explore this possibility.

For now, we have our first door to launch; we’re bringing our full attention to this objective.  But think of the possibilities!


eDOORWAYS – Emerging Doors That Empower

December 19, 2008

eDOORWAYS has been experiencing amazing enhancements over the last few weeks.  It seems that the word is getting out about what we have and our potential to accomplish it.  Some incredibly bright people are taking a look at our website and have concluded that they want to get involved.  This occurs at a time when good news, elsewhere in the business world, is hard to come by.

Recently, Management has been meeting with parties interested in and excited about adding their unique capabilities and vision to eDOORWAYS.  These potential eDOORWAYS team members are going to bring a lot to our table in the form of new and exciting vertical service offerings.  More amazing, still, is how the eDOORWAYS universe is revealing its cohesiveness, even as it continues to grow and morph.  What’s clear is that eDOORWAYS is truly emerging as a Broadband platform whose unique set of “doors” are geared to empower those who enter.

Right now, there are six doors that have established themselves as contenders.  Here is a sneak peek into each one:

  • SOLVE:       This is the door that will be launched first.  It is the original conception of the eDOORWAYS service offering and is scheduled for launch in early 2009.  It will be a real-time problem solving venue and e-commerce platform resembling a “town square”.   Pre-qualified “gold nugget” prospects will be connected directly to businesses that have the exact solution to their problem or need.
  • Doorway 2:        Bringing the learning experience to a higher level of intention and mastery.  This door will offer an opportunity for anyone wishing to create a training experience for others or to further their own education to achieve their objective.  It will offer a feature new to learning – the ability to tap into the skill and knowledge of others in a real-time venue to create a learning experience.
  • Doorway 3:       Bringing Technology, Tolerance, and Talent together to create new ideas, products, and possibilities. Imagine being able to go to a special place where you can air your creative thinking, run it by others of a similar mind, and turn it into a tangible, productive project using the unlimited human and information resources of the web.
  • Doorway 4:      Connecting those who want to help with those who need it.  This extraordinary door will give those who wish to serve others the opportunity to bring tremendous focus and impact to their charitable action.  Make your action known to those who care so that they may assist you in bringing your unique capabilities to a world in need.
  • Doorway 5:      The factual backbone element for all other doorways; no “truths” or opinions – only unfiltered facts.   Have you ever wished you could hear what is going on in the world without having to filter out the opinion of its presenter?   This door will cater to those who wish to draw their own conclusions.
  • Doorway 6:     Combine AI-driven, personalized and intuitive guidance (think: the ancient Oracle at Delphi) with a “trans-dimensional gateway” (imagine a 4D revolving door!) – that can whisk you from anywhere in Broadband Space to the eDOORWAYS universe, in the blink of an eye – and you begin to get an idea of how powerful this special doorway is! Look for more about this remarkable Sixth Door, in coming News Releases…

Each door will bring with it new ways to derive revenue through technology licensing, advertising, and other avenues in markets such as education, news broadcasting, Internet search services, and others.  The five new doors will be released sequentially as they are completed.  Our goal is to launch as many doors as possible in 2009.  In addition, the company anticipates that other doors may emerge as the brand establishes itself in the marketplace.  We will share more about each in future press/blog releases.

We encourage our shareholders to present their ideas to management regarding the nature and design of each “doorway.”   Ideas that have merit will be rewarded!   Winners will receive one year of free eDOORWAYS service.


eDOORWAYS Corporation – Staying “Current”

February 10, 2009

eDOORWAYS Corporation has started the new year off with positive action.  On Monday, February 9, 2009 the company filed its second and third quarter filings for 2008 with the SEC.  With this action, the company is now “current” with its filings.  This has been a key objective of the company for several months.

While this may not seem like a significant event, the action can have important consequences.  Public companies have the option of filing quarterly and annual reports with the SEC.  Many opt not to make the filings, which are time consuming and quite costly.  Often, companies simply do not have the resources to comply with the reporting requirements.  However, there are significant benefits that come with making the extra effort to achieve compliance.

First of all, companies that are current with their SEC filings may be eligible to have their stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board.   Bulletin Board companies enjoy enhanced trading status and are generally regarded as being farther along in their development.   Also there are a greater variety of funding alternatives associated with this privilege.   Many funding sources require audited financials and Bulletin Board status before they will make investment money available.

With this in mind, eDOORWAYS plans to return to the Bulletin Board as soon as it may do so.  We are taking steps in this regard now.  Certainly, these are tough times.  But this will change and we want to be ready.  We will continue to take the steps that build a strong foundation for the company.


eDOORWAYS Corporation and N.I.R. Group, LLC Reach Key Agreement

February 17, 2009

eDOORWAYS’ financial strategy is to leverage it’s public status to secure sufficient capital for a successful launch.   The first step in the process occurred in 2006 with an agreement for N.I.R. Group, LLC to provide an initial equity capital infusion into the company.  During 2006 and 2007, N.I.R. made approximately $2.4 million available to eDOORWAYS Corporation.   The company used a significant portion of this money to engage speakTECH, an award-winning Microsoft development partner, to create an initial version of the first (“Solve”) doorway of the company’s Internet service offering.

As we move forward, additional capital will be required until the company can fund its operations internally.  It is important for us to maintain a position of flexibility in terms of the next-stage capital partner we may select as well as the terms and conditions they may offer.

Second-stage funding sources look closely at the terms and conditions that were established by the first-stage funder.  Sometimes there are contractual terms that can limit a second-stage funder’s ability to step in and provide capital.  It is important for the company to place itself in a position that gives it the maximum possible flexibility for next-stage capitalization.  At the same time, it is necessary for N.I.R. to protect its investment interest.

Pursuant to this goal, the company, with the assistance of Envision Capital, LLC, conferred with N.I.R. to determine the best possible avenue for going forward.  Eric Noveshen, managing director of Envision Capital, served as the lead consultant as we engaged in restructuring discussions with N.I.R. during the fourth quarter of 2008.

Hard work and persistence have paid off for all of the parties.  At the end of December, eDOORWAYS Corporation and N.I.R. Group signed a restructuring agreement that lays the ground work for eDOORWAYS to obtain the best financing terms available from secondary sources and for N.I.R. to obtain a greater potential return on its investment.

The move is already paying off for the company – we have several viable next-stage funding alternatives that we are considering at a time when many startup companies have either limited or no option for getting capital.


First Shareholder Call is Scheduled

March 17, 2009

On Tuesday, March 24th, 2009 at 11:00 a.m. EST eDOORWAYS Corporation will conduct its first shareholder conference call of the new year.   Gary Kimmons, CEO, will speak during the call.  It’s his intention to provide an update of eDOORWAYS’ recent activities and accomplishments as well as the company’s near-term plans.  At the end of the call, Gary will answer your questions.

Our objective is for us to share as much as possible with you.  We believe that it’s in your best interest as a shareholder as well as the best interest of the company for the message about our unique service offering and the opportunity our brand is experiencing in the marketplace to be heard loud and clear!

Please check back on Monday, March 23rd for the dial-in number.

NOTE:  THE CONFERENCE CALL WITH GARY KIMMONS WAS HELD ON TUESDAY, MARCH 24TH AT 11:00 a.m. EST.  IF YOU MISSED THE CALL AND WOULD LIKE TO LISTEN TO THE PRESENTATION, THE CONFERENCE CALL IS NOW LINKED ON THE MEDIA PAGE OF THE EDOORWAYS CORPORATE SITE:     www.edoorways.com/media.htm


eDOORWAYS Returns to the Bulletin Board

March 31, 2009

eDOORWAYS now trades as EDWY.OB.   The OTC Compliance Unit approved the company for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board on Monday, March 30th.   However, our stock may continue to trade on the PinkSheets for a short time during the transition.  This dual listing is very important to understand as it can cause confusion.

If you are looking at an OTCBB version of Level 2 or if the quotes made available by your financial site stream from Bulletin Board information, there will only be one Market Maker shown for thirty (30) days.  This Market Maker is our sponsor, World Trade Financial Corporation (WORL).   Additionally, there is a possibility that no Bid or Ask will be posted at financial sites for this short time period.

If by chance there is only one Market Maker on your Level 2 screen, this may be caused by a default setting provided by the financial service you are using.  It is suggested that you contact your Level 2 service provider and request the setting whereby you can continue viewing Level 2 from the PinkSheets.   After 30 days, this will no longer apply.

Overall, moving back to the OTCBB is a very positive development for eDOORWAYS Corporation.   For more information about the implications of this move, please refer to the first shareholder conference call.  (www.edoorways.com/audio/edoorways_shareholder_call_032409.mp3)


Consumer 3.0

April 17, 2009

eDOORWAYS’ management thought you might be interested in the following press release issued by USEquityNews.com.  Here is the release:

–(www.USEquityNews.com)– 04/15/2009 – Back in the 1960s, about the time Bob Dylan was singing “For the times they are a-changin”, things were indeed changing. Ironically, one of the biggest changes taking shape was something that neither Dylan nor almost anybody else was aware of.

That change began in California, when Robert Taylor, the head of the information processing office at the Defense Department’s Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), began working on an interconnected networking system, an idea encouraged by J.C.R. Licklider, the head of DARPA. Licklider had been frustrated of having to use three separate dedicated terminals, each with its own set of commands, to communicate with three different technical groups he was working with around the country. Late in the evening of October 29, 1969, the first link of that new network was established between UCLA and the Stanford Research Institute. The network soon grew and, in 1974, a related technical paper on communication protocols first used the term “Internet”.

By the mid 1990s, after many technical developments and administrative changes, what had begun as a way to simplify communications between computer researchers, had exploded into a worldwide communications tool, rapidly opening itself up to commercial use. Companies were beginning to use the Internet to change the way consumers and businesses approached the marketplace.

eBay, Inc. (NASDAQ: EBAY), founded in 1995, allowed anyone to sell anything, making the auction a continuous and worldwide event. Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN), which also went online in 1995, began its ongoing quest to provide consumers a satisfying, and at least partially self-controlled buying experience. By the late 1990s, it was clear that Consumer 1.0, the consumer that depended upon brick and mortar stores and vendor advertising, was being replaced. Consumer 2.0 could purchase instantly, any time of the day or night, from anywhere in the world, using transaction models that included their own input.

Of course it didn’t stop there. As more businesses came online, technologies developed to provide consumers increasing flexibility and control in accessing and viewing the products and services they wanted to see. With the opening of Google, Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) in September of 1998, consumers could call up information, including product and service information, that was instantly “ranked”. This allowed consumers to create a new view of the world, showing the most popular sites/stores to meet their needs. Social networking sites such as MySpace (2003) and FaceBook (2004) provided a personal word-of-mouth communication network that influenced buying decisions in unexpected new ways.

Today, based upon technologies and online models developed over the last 10 years, there is an increasing realization that another shift in the consumer-vendor relationship is not only possible, but imminent, and those who are forward-looking enough to recognize and take part in this fundamental change will have a huge advantage. The change involves dramatically increased consumer control, and much of the development is still going on in the background. In fact, this move to a Consumer 3.0 model is perhaps best represented by eDOORWAYS Corp. (OTCBB: EDWY).

eDOORWAYS describes itself conservatively as a web-based consumer problem-solving gateway. But you’ll get a better handle on the company if you think of them as what happens when you put Google, MySpace, and eBay in a blender, and mix them on high power. Their goal is to approach the consumer retail process in a new way, integrating the latest technologies with advanced social networking models, to create a totally different experience for the viewer. In the eDOORWAYS world, consumers, and anyone looking for solutions and answers, will be able to define what they are looking for in ways not yet available anywhere on the Web. They will, in effect, create their own customized information universe, getting the answers they want in the form they want.

To do this, CEO Gary Kimmons, who made his fortune as the successful founder of GK intelligent Systems, has managed to line up some of the best minds in the online and retail field. The quality of the team says as much as anything about the potential of this dramatic new approach. One of these heavy hitters is the award-winning Internet enterprise builder SpeakTech.com. As one of the top two Microsoft partners in the world, and with clients like Panasonic and Sony, SpeakTech chooses who it works with, and it has chosen eDoorways. It represents a giant vote of confidence for the new Consumer 3.0 concept and eDoorways. After all, it was SpeakTech that played a key role in developing an earlier new concept, called MySpace.

We believe that this release offers an excellent description of what eDOORWAYS is all about!  Our objective is to make Consumer 3.0 happen with the SOLVE doorway service offering.  Your ideas, comments and observations are appreciated.


Clarifying Current Filing Status

May 18, 2009
Dear Shareholders,

To further clarify the status of our filings, up until 5 p.m. on Friday, May 15th, 2009, it was our understanding that we would be filing our 10K today, Monday, May 18, 2009. Please be aware that all of the information provided via press releases, blogs, shareholder letters, etc., is attributed to the information that was provided to us by those professionals servicing the company, which was in turn passed on to you, our much appreciated shareholders.

On Friday, at approximately 5:00 pm, we received a call informing us that making the deadline today is in question. This was as much news to us as it is to you! As it stands, we are on pins and needles in anticipation of the hat and rabbit trick, hoping that our accountants, lawyers and auditors can pull through for us. We reiterated to them the necessity of making our filing on time. Unfortunately, stressing this point is the limit of what we can do as the matter in which they perform is out of our hands. What we can assure is that the items required of to the best of our knowledge have been satisfied.

It’s important for us to clarify the questions raised about being on the OTC Bulletin Board and a possible delay of the launch. Certainly, we want to be on the Bulletin Board because it makes it immediately clear that we are a filing company with professionally produced accounting documents.

It also gives a positive connotation of our “realness” as a public company. However, what’s more important is that we actually make the filings, which is what we’ve stressed to accomplish in the year past; what we are doing to date, and what we shall continue to do regardless of our listed exchange.

At present, when the filings are turned in, we will be current again.

This current status will be our status regardless of the exchange. Be mindful, it is the “current” status that gives us the true flexibility and a major piece of the creditability we need to move forward operationally.

This includes continuously raising any additional capital, etc. That ["current" status] is far and away the most important thing right now.

Should we have a problem with our OTCBB listing in the next few days, we will claw our way back or even perhaps esteem to something greater. We’ve come this far, there is no turning back.

Also, please be aware that there is absolutely no connection between the timing of our filings and the timing of the launch. In past public announcements we referred to the announcement of the launch date occurring after the filings were made but within the second quarter of 2009.

Everything to that regard is moving forward as we have planned. We will file and we will announce the launch date within this second quarter.

 


Update to Filing Status

May 19, 2009

Dear Shareholders,

To further update the status of our filings, we regret to inform you that as of yesterday, Monday, May 18th, 2009, we missed our filing deadline for the 10K.

This is very disappointing for us all. The company worked very hard to provide all of the necessary documentation, handling outstanding issues and paying service providers. However, the ultimate conclusion rested in the hands of others.

Regardless of the aforementioned, please be aware that our accountants, lawyers and auditors are still working to complete both our 10K and 10Q filings. We have every reason to believe that we will be making our filings shortly. We and our original sponsor to the OTCBB are examining our options to see if it is possible for us to remain on the OTCBB or re-list immediately.

Let us remind you that while we certainly want to be on the Bulletin Board, it is more important that we actually make the filings regardless of the exchange. When the filings are submitted, we will be “current” again with the SEC. This “current” status will be our status regardless of the exchange we trade on and we will continue to have the flexibility needed to move forward operationally. Maintaining our “current” status with the SEC is far and away the most important thing right now.

Generally speaking, eDOORWAYS is operating as planned and is in good standing. There is absolutely no connection between the timing of our filings and the timing of the actual launch. We will still announce the launch date within this second quarter of 2009 – preferably after we’re current, but announced nonetheless.

We are still moving forward and wish to thank all of you for your continued support.


eDOORWAYS Engages Key Marketing Veteran

June 3, 2009

Kristen Claflin has elected to assist eDOORWAYS Corporation with our launch of the SOLVE doorway. Kristen is Principal of Claflin Consulting Co. in Santa Monica, California (where many of the top Internet services companies have their marketing divisions). Kristen is a 20-year Marketing & Advertising veteran. Prior to founding Claflin Consulting Co., she was Vice President, Ad Marketing at United Online (parent company of NetZero, Juno, Classmates.com & FTD). During her 4-year tenure at United Online, she worked in several key areas including Ad Marketing, Ad Products and Ad Sales. Before joining United Online, Kristen was Director of Marketing at Cingular Wireless for five years overseeing marketing, advertising, public relations, sales support and product management in the Northeast. Kristen has also worked at several advertising agencies including Omnicom’s GSD&M. Kristen has a Bachelor of Science degree from The University of Kansas in Business Administration and an MBA from Babson College.

Kristen’s extensive experience with marketing Internet services is exactly what we need as we progress toward a launch of our SOLVE doorway. Kristen will assume the lead role in developing our launch strategy. She is also working with us as we develop and establish the eDOORWAYS brand and create the most effective way to derive revenue from our service offering.


Kristen Claflin Addresses eDOORWAYS’ Shareholders

June 8, 2009

On June 3rd, 2009 we announced the signing of Kristen Claflin to our team of expert consultants. Ms. Claflin, who boasts tenures at United Online, Inc. (parent company of Classmates.com, NetZero, Juno & FTD) as VP of Ad Marketing, Cingular Wireless as Director of Marketing and Omnicom’s GSD&M, is expected to greatly assist us with bringing the much anticipated Consumer 3.0 web platform to market later this year. As the company’s brand marketing and site monetization strategy consultant, Ms. Claflin’s first order of business was to release the following statement:

“I believe eDOORWAYS has the potential to be a game changer and become the premier online resource for Consumer 3.0 solutions. eDOORWAYS offers users the ability to define what they are looking for, get the answers they want, in the format they want all with the option to purchase online or be directed to a local resource. eDOORWAYS also boasts an environment that is customized to the user with real-time, intelligent performance support and advanced semantic agents giving eDOORWAYS the competitive advantage of becoming more personalized with each use.

Marketing will play a critical role in achieving site adoption that will ultimately lead to our ability to generate revenues. We will utilize all elements of the marketing toolbox that we need to in order to reach our target audience of the 90 million micro boomers and netgenners. But we will do so with a conscious effort to maximize ROI, which means all marketing efforts will be as targeted as possible. We will also employ viral marketing, which has proven successful with reaching this audience and is extremely cost-effective.

eDOORWAYS stands out among other social networks due to the portability, transparency and control we will offer users. And eDOORWAYS is unique among other online resources by providing an intelligent user interface, dynamic customization tools and an action-oriented workspace.

I am very excited about joining the eDOORWAYS team and look forward to a successful launch and helping eDOORWAYS to grow into the premier online resource it is destined to be.” Kristen Claflin

We wish to welcome Kristen to our team. We know that she is going to play a very valuable role in our future!


eDOORWAYS Signs Development Agreement with Developer of Intelligent Technology

June 10, 2009

eDOORWAYS continues preparation for the launch of its revolutionary Consumer 3.0 web based platform with the signing of Atlanta-based technology firm Technical Objectives. The developer of an award-winning artificial intelligence software, Technical Objectives represents one of the finishing touches to the growing team of expert consultants tasked with launching the eDOORWAYS platform this year.

Technical Objectives possesses various technological capabilities which include the development of rule-based intelligent systems, neural and probabilistic networks, automated planning and social network analysis. The company has extensive experience in deploying intelligent applications on financial and mortgage service sites as well as intelligent tutoring systems. Clients include AT&T, NCR’s Human Interface Technology Group, and Inference Corp. The company also brings with it unique experiences and knowledge acquired from work performed on military contracts. This military work includes nondestructive evaluation using neural networks for the USAF, social network analysis and automated planning software.

Technical Objectives’ first order of business is to provide technical guidance and support to eDOORWAYS as it proceeds with the overall design and development of the company’s “doorway” service offerings. This includes the incorporation of key features such as the use of personal assistants and an intelligent user interface that will draw heavily upon Web 3.0 technology and conceptualization.

It is presumed that with the shaping of Technical Objectives, the platform will allow users to better collaborate in authoring and designing not only static content–like hypertext and canned media clips–but dynamic content. Users will be matched with other users or with relevant information and products through a process that blends both social and machine-based intelligent performance support. Online statistical and intelligent analytic technologies will monitor how people use eDOORWAYS. This will automatically and continually adjust and fine-tune the system’s behavior to achieve optimum experience for all users.


eDOORWAYS to Announce Launch Plans on 2nd Shareholder Conference Call

June 16, 2009

Chairman & CEO Gary Kimmons takes to the bully pulpit once more as the company is prepared to address the market regarding the launch date of the much anticipated eDOORWAYS platform.

Monday, June 29th, 2009 at 11:00 a.m. (ET), shareholders of eDOORWAYS Corp. will have the chance to once again speak with the company’s CEO. With the primary question being, “when is the platform launching,” the company aims to deliver favorable news as it continues to enlist shareholder support.

Those close to the company have indicated that Kristen Claflin, the company’s Brand Marketing and Site Monetization Strategy Consultant, will make her presence known as she is slated to co-head this call with Kimmons. It is also believed that Mr. Kimmons could reveal the next expected doorway; which would also answer some questions about what’s been going on at the company these past few months.


eDOORWAYS Will Broadcast 2nd Shareholder Conference Call Live Over the Web

June 25, 2009

eDOORWAYS is using webcasting as a means to ensure that our supporters in remote corners of the world have the opportunity to receive our message in real-time.

eDOORWAYS is expected to launch our highly anticipated Consumer 3.0SM platform in 2009. We seem to have become a global curiosity according to people we’re hearing from. The growing interest has translated into an international investment opportunity for those abroad. It’s partly for this reason that eDOORWAYS is taking the show worldwide – now offering the company’s 2nd shareholder conference call through live streaming media technology in addition to an international dial-in number.

Initially, in an attempt to appease foreign investors, we added an international dial-in number for the call – something we had not done on our last conference call. With increased traffic in “info request” emails, calls to the company and communications on this blog signifying genuine interest, we quickly determined that access to the 2nd conference call had to be widely broadened. Our decision to stream a live webcast to ensure not only domestic reach, but to respond to international interest was validated when blog communications from shareholders overseas expressed disappointment at the possibility of their exclusion from the event.

Excitement in and around our company has kicked into high gear as the call date nears. Although we are not yet providing details about the contents of the presentation, it’s clear that both Gary Kimmons and Kristen Claflin, the company’s newly appointed Brand Marketing and Site Monetization Strategist, are revved up and ready to address callers. It’s also been suggested that there could be the possibility of one or two unexpected surprises that may capture the attention of new investors.

The domestic and international dial-in numbers, as well as a link to the webcast will be released tomorrow, Friday, June 26th, 2009. This information will also be presented on both the company’s corporate website and this blog.

eDOORWAYS Sets October 1st Launch Date – Engages Vincent as Lead Architect

June 29, 2009

Gary Kimmons and Kristen Claflin, Brand Marketing and Site Monetization Strategist, just wrapped up a call with company shareholders.  In the company’s 2nd and possibly most important call of the year, Kimmons committed to a launch date of October 1st, 2009.  However the climax of his announcement came when Kimmons disclosed that the company has already secured Michael Vincent, the former speakTECH Lead Solutions Architect to act as the company’s internal technology architect.

Kimmons immediately began the call with what shareholders wanted to know most – the launch date.  He described the initial launch of the first doorway “SOLVE” as being a soft launch having all of the capabilities to go live prior to October 1st.  He was careful to clarify that this is a conservative date that has a strong chance of being moved forward if the economy continues to improve.

Kimmons and Claflin then moved on to describe how the eDOORWAYS platform will utilize the current Web 2.0 and seamlessly transition into the leveraging of Web 3.0 technology.  They described the four areas of opportunity eDOORWAYS is likely to excel in and capitalize on.  Possibly, one of the more interesting of such opportunities was that referred to as “Freedom”.  Mr. Kimmons described how the Consumer 3.0 platform allows for flexibility and freedom current social networking sites, or even those integrated sites with similar virtual social components simply lack – the ability to take your work, profile, etc. with you wherever you may go, and do whatever you wish with it.

Kimmons pointed out that THE ECONOMIST magazine recently noted social networking sites such as MySpace and FaceBook have essentially become “Walled-In Communities”.  This term describes sites where you can go and do things like interact with multiple groups within the site’s confined area.  However, when you wish to leave or transfer your profile and work to another service or space, you must start over, leaving everything behind.

By contrast, eDOORWAYS will exemplify a totally free and open environment.  This is a feature that social networkers currently operating on the Internet – sharing work, school, interest, love and life – will demand in the future of online social networking.  Kimmons indicated that the company simply figured, why wait until Internet users got fed up with being “walled in” when the eDOORWAYS Consumer 3.0 platform can be designed to knock down the walls.

The call also touched on a strong candidate for the second doorway.  Kimmons revealed that the company has a significant interest in a highly advanced educational technology which uses artificial intelligence to emulate the most proficient teacher for ease of learning just about any subject.  The company anticipates leveraging this technology to drive the development of what is very possibly the next doorway, “LEARN”.  There is the possibility that this doorway and its underlying technology can rapidly come to market after the initial launch provided that the global environment is suitable for its content.  If this is the case, a greater stream of revenue can be factored into projections much sooner.  This of course would mean possibly driving the company into positive territory much sooner than anticipated.

Kristen Claflin navigated the call with the knowledge and charisma expected of a 20 year marketing and brand strategist veteran.  Claflin addressed concerns of what it would take to market an initiative as massive as eDOORWAYS.  She minimized concerns of any possibility of a poor reception of “SOLVE” and covered the ingredients needed for an expedited national roll-out.  From a marketing perspective, she described the viability of eDOORWAYS in relation to what makes it special as a brand – discussing her plans on quickly signing up the retail market and incorporating viral marketing to attract the targeted consumer audience.

Many listeners were excited to learn of the signing of Mr. Michael Vincent to the team as the company’s Lead Technology Architect.  Michael Vincent, former Lead Solutions Architect for speakTECH, is charged with the task of ensuring that the eDOORWAYS’ launch date expectation is met.   As far as we’re concerned, there is no one better qualified to see this technology to a timely launch than one of original builders of the platform!


eDOORWAYS Names Michael Vincent as Lead Technology Architect

June 30, 2009

Gary Kimmons announced yesterday that the company is leaving nothing to chance as they intend to make good on their commitment to soft launch the “SOLVE” doorway on October 1st, 2009.  eDOORWAYS has signed former speakTECH Solutions Architect, Michael Vincent to manage functional testing, modifications and delivery of the eDOORWAYS’ platform previously developed by speakTECH.  Vincent’s role will be to make sure that all necessary “SOLVE” soft launch components are in place and operating correctly.

Michael Vincent, who is a Visual Studio Team System MVP, consults primarily on Microsoft development tools and technologies.  Operating within the software business for more than 20 years, Vincent has a wide range of experience working with smaller businesses such as eDOORWAYS to Fortune 100 companies.  As a former speakTECH employee, Vincent possesses the knowledge and experience to provide eDOORWAYS with top grade software architecture, application lifecycle management, and development services.  And considering that Vincent was the project manager regarding the initial design and development of the eDOORWAYS platform at speakTECH, he has intimate working knowledge of the platform.


eDOORWAYS to Allow Shareholders a “Live Walk-Through” of the SOLVE Doorway

July 2, 2009

On the last shareholder conference call, the company was asked if we would be willing to make the eDOORWAYS platform and the SOLVE doorway available for demonstration.  At that time, our Chairman and CEO, Mr. Gary Kimmons, advised that making SOLVE available to the public before its scheduled release introduces undue risk associated with losing our competitive advantage in the marketplace.

Nevertheless, as a participant in our conference call noted, “seeing is believing,” and many of you are demanding to see what we’ve achieved. This has created an interesting dilemma – if we unveil SOLVE, we risk ultimately hurting shareholder value by allowing competitors insight into the mechanics of the platform.  We’re almost positive that any reasonable shareholder would not want that.  Yet, if we continue to hold it close until the soft launch, it is clear that many of you, our shareholders, will continue to question the veracity and authenticity of our effort.  The impasse this creates is detrimental to all of us – and it’s negatively affecting our value in the marketplace.

We simply cannot let this continue to unjustly happen.  As an act of mutual good-faith, we are prepared to act immediately by offering to make the SOLVE doorway available for shareholder inspection and review via a “live walk-through” conducted by our technology consultants. The walk-through is available to us now since we’ve used it for past presentations to private capital sources.  However, exactly how it is we can implement the presentations to the public with a reasonable degree of security must still be resolved.

It’s our intention to get back to you as soon as possible with a plan that can work whereby the walk-through is made available within the month.  This should only take a few business days.  At that time, we will announce the viewing date(s), our plan for certifying participants and the forum in which we intend to conduct this event.  Regardless, we see no reason why the presentation(s) cannot be conducted this month.

To conclude, we understand that our shareholders are excited to view a demonstration of the platform and celebrate what the company has achieved.  And it is because we value you, our shareholders, we will proactively strive to meet your stated needs and expectations.

Your patience and understanding regarding this sensitive issue is sincerely appreciated!


eDOORWAYS Hires IRG as Company’s Public Relations Firm

July 7, 2009

eDOORWAYS, your  web-based consumer problem solving gateway, lifestyle information source, and online business-to-consumer marketplace, has retained Investor Relations Group (IRG), a thirteen-year-old, award-winning corporate communications firm based in New York City, to serve as its national public relations firm.   Print, radio, broadcast, and online media outreach initiated by the New York PR firm will further the awareness of eDOORWAYS.

IRG will immediately commence an outreach campaign targeting editors, writers, and segment producers of local and national trade and consumer online, print, radio, and broadcast media outlets. IRG’s mandate is to produce gripping news content that describes the company’s next-generation Internet gateway for businesses and consumers while positioning the eDOORWAYS executive management team as industry thought leaders. IRG’s corporate communications program includes new media and multimedia initiatives that involve the creation of broadcast-ready corporate videos, podcasts, and the creation of social networking, video service, and micro-blogging accounts. The Investor Relations Group was recently honored with a “Stevie Award” for Investor Relations Program of the Year and named a finalist in the Best Media Website category from the 2009 American Business Awards.

We are delighted to embark upon this relationship with the Investor Relations Group!    Given such exciting recent company developments as the announcement of the October launch date of our SOLVE Doorway, the naming of Michael Vincent as our Lead Technology Architect, our upcoming live shareholder walkthrough, and the advent of a possible new doorway we’ve named “LEARN”, we believe that now is the opportune time for us to engage a high-level corporate communications team to help tell our story.   We have every confidence in IRG’s ability to successfully communicate our story with the investment community, our shareholders, the media, and the public-at-large.


eDOORWAYS Names Senior Financial & Accounting Specialist

July 8, 2009

eDOORWAYS is at work furthering its agenda.  With the addition of a Brand Marketing and Site Monetization Strategist, setting the launch date, supporting that launch with the acquisition of a Lead Technology Architect and engaging an award winning New York PR firm to convey the company’s message to the masses, eDOORWAYS seems set on a course of growth and success.  Still yet, in preparing for October’s delivery of the “SOLVE” doorway we are continuing to seek additional ways to build greater shareholder value.  Today, this value comes in the form of the company’s potential CFO candidate – newly signed eDOORWAYS team consultant, Dan Bensimon.

A former member of the US Special Forces, Dan Bensimon, who has been named the company’s Senior Financial & Accounting Specialist, brings with him over 30 years of exceptional skills as an international specialty accountant and financial/operations manager.

Mr. Bensimon’s background includes his role as an accountant and partner at Touche Ross & Co, where he worked in the LA, D.C., NY, Paris and Austin offices prior to heading all European audit operations.  Bensimon was also responsible for reorganizing the financial operations of Washington’s Milton Development Corporation as Vice President.  He once acted as the Liquidating Trustee for both Compaq and Living.Com Liquidating Trust, was tapped for expert testimony in U.S. Bankruptcy Court and has been involved with multiple IPO’s.  What may be the most impressive aspect of Dan’s background is his role as the court appointed President of Nash Philips – Copus, Inc., once the largest privately held homebuilder in the United States.  At Nash Philips, he successfully managed the company through Chapter 11 as a member of the debtor in possession.

Our company requires sound judgment and expertise – and this is especially true in the area of financial management.  We are now poised to complete our filings.   Recently, we determined that using an “external” accounting group actually created more grief than good.  Bensimon, who entered into negotiations with eDOORWAYS back in May, began examining the company’s financial and accounting situation in anticipation of the release of our former accountants.  Once the decision was made to create firm internal accounting controls, Dan Bensimon was officially engaged in early June, and he immediately welcomed the task of putting the audit back on track.  Due to the excitement of the company’s launch date announcement, we had not found the right opportunity to disclose this news.

When Mr. Bensimon was asked what attracted a professional of his caliber to eDOORWAYS he responded, “This is a company surrounded by good and intelligent individuals who each seem to possess a sincere interest in seeing eDOORWAYS penetrate the marketplace.  My experience affords me the ability to identify real opportunity – and the opportunity here is innumerable.”

Dan continued, “I believe, that with the assistance of the company’s lead consultant, eDOORWAYS has been successfully guided to a point whereby with additional organizational insight, it can quickly expand and see its way onto a major exchange with a profit potential only wished for by most Internet tech companies.  I also believe my experience affords me the ability to confidently say, if the company grants me the resources and freedom, I can initiate adequate financial organization, properly complete the audit, and ensure that eDOORWAYS is well prepared to enjoy the explosive growth that potentially awaits it in the months to come.”

eDOORWAYS is making financial decisions that demand sound decision making skills.  These are skills that can only come from years of practical hands-on experience – and Dan Bensimon has the right credentials.  Dan is truly going to help eDOORWAYS immeasurably as we prepare for a highly anticipated launch which can quickly position us for a major exchange.  And now, we’ll be ready!

eDOORWAYS is rapidly emerging as a national brand that now requires the judgment and expertise of proven executives.  As continually demonstrated by our quality consultants, we certainly have the appeal to attract very talented personnel.


eDOORWAYS Sets Date for Pre-Launch LIve Presentation

July 10, 2009

Due to last week’s announcement allowing shareholders the ability to participate in a pre-launch presentation, this past week the company has been very busy fielding an increased volume in calls and emails from shareholders passionately expressing their views on the matter.  While some believe this move to be potentially more harmful than good, others feel this action will allow them to better understand the viability of the eDOORWAYS platform.

Recognizing the importance and sensitive nature of revealing the platform, eDOORWAYS has determined that in the spirit of compromise, the best way to satisfy everyone is to make a basic pre-launch walk-through presentation available this month – subject however to very specific shareholder registration rules and requirements.  Also, by making the appropriate technical integrations, the company can grant shareholders a walk-through within a reasonably protected environment.  eDOORWAYS believes this approach will be a win/win for all; assuaging any doubt while protecting shareholder value and interest.

The date of the pre-launch presentation will be Friday, July 31st, 2009.  Details of this event, including times, access codes, terms and conditions, registration requirements, etc., will be announced next week.

Once again, the company understands that shareholders are extremely motivated, and because eDOORWAYS values each of you, the company will proactively strive to responsibly manage the expectations of all to show the sincerest appreciation of your support.

Thank you.


eDOORWAYS’ Senior Financial & Accounting Specialist Sets Time Horizon for Filings

July 15, 2009

Mr. Dan Bensimon, our Senior Financial & Accounting Specialist, has taken considerable time acclimating himself with the company’s policies, procedures and accounting activity.  He has assessed the financials of eDOORWAYS and engaged in meaningful conversations with the company’s auditor and SEC counsel.  From thorough and continuing due diligence, Dan Bensimon has developed a sound basis in which he feels confident to draw reasonable conclusions as to the completion of the company’s filings.

According to Mr. Bensimon’s conservative estimates, he expects, should the company keep the course now set, that the 10K along with the 1st and 2nd Quarter Q’s of ‘09, will all be completed by Monday, August 31st, 2009.  This would put the company on target with its Q3 for ‘09 filing and set the pace for timely filings thereafter.  Bensimon suggested that although he will likely have the 10K completed by July 31st, Q1 by August 15th and Q2 by August 31st, he would rather set a manageable date for all of the filings.  In this regard, Mr. Bensimon stated the following:

“I know for some this may appear as too much time for the completion of a few filings.  However, what is important for shareholders to understand, the goal is not simply to complete an audit, but to see a company reach its fullest potential.  This means becoming current, remaining current and confidently moving onto a better exchange.  This can only occur when a company’s management and its accounting professionals take the time to ensure the messages being sent to the public are absolutely reflected and proven by their books.

To accomplish this first requires that I acquire a full understanding of the company’s policies, procedures and accounting activity.  We must confirm that transactions originally posted do not conflict with the company’s accounting policies – then properly post accounting entries.  Finally, we must minimize possible tax liabilities.  This means curbing any foreseeable tax exposure and expunging any negative precedence that would fly in the face of proper record keeping.

This is all very important for a company that could very well end up on a major exchange very quickly due to its October launch.”

We at eDOORWAYS believe that Dan Bensimon, who boasts over 30 years of international specialty accounting and financial operations management experience, has the credentials to bring the company’s financials to the highest standards.  We support the position Mr. Bensimon has taken to support our viability for investment appeal and move to a higher exchange.   We applaud Dan’s efforts and are pleased to provide this anticipated filing date announcement confident that its time horizons are being properly set and managed.


eDOORWAYS Update Regarding Pre-Launch Presentation

July 24, 2009

SEC Counsel for eDOORWAYS has advised that the company’s twin goals of protecting our proprietary platform technology while providing shareholders with a pre-launch walk-through might be in conflict with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) October 23, 2000, ruling regarding selective disclosure and insider trading. The FD (Full Disclosure) rule is “designed to promote the full and fair disclosure of information by issuers and to clarify, and enhance existing prohibitions against insider trading.”

eDOORWAYS has been strongly advised that if the company is to remain compliant and protect its shareholders, the planned walk-through should be reevaluated. While eDOORWAYS therefore regrets that it will be unable to provide a pre-launch walkthrough to all its shareholders, the company has worked diligently to devise another solution.

An independent, unpaid shareholder board committee will be formed to review the platform and report back to all other shareholders and the public. This committee will be comprised of shareholders who are willing to sign extensive non-disclosure agreements (NDA) and abide by the SEC Reg FD rulings. While these shareholders will not become “insiders” by joining this board, their ability to trade (i.e., buy and sell in the open market) will become significantly limited and in most cases prohibited.  Until the information the committee reviews (deemed “material information”) becomes public, all future investments made by these shareholders, sitting on the board committee, can only occur directly with eDOORWAYS.

Shareholders interested in joining the committee are invited to submit their request by filling out the request information form found at the following link:  Shareholder Board Committee Request (also located on the Home Page of the eDOORWAYS website). Only those persons who are shareholders by market close today, Friday, July 24, 2009, may be eligible for consideration.  The committee does not have a membership limit and will consist of as many qualifying shareholders who are willing to submit to the legal conditions and implications denoted.  All submission requests must be accounted for by market close Monday, July 27, 2009.

Once all submissions are cross-referenced and verified, an instruction letter, NDA, and any and all other appropriate documents will be forwarded to those qualifying shareholders.   Shareholders will then have to execute and submit all requested information within the time frame indicated in the eDOORWAYS’ correspondence.   Following this, the committee will be immediately formed, the pre-launch presentation will be given at a date the newly-formed board committee decides, and the committee will report back to shareholders and the public at large through an independent news release.


eDOORWAYS Provides Update Concerning Status Reports, Filings and Pre-Launch Presentation

July 27, 2009

First, as it pertains to the October 1st soft launch date, Michael Vincent, the company’s Lead Technology Architect has made an assessment of the company’s current development regarding meeting the proposed soft launch date and has concluded that the company is on schedule.

As it pertains to the 10K Audit filing, Dan Bensimon, the company’s Senior Financial & Accounting Specialist, has persistently continued to advance the company’s accounting schedule.   According to Mr. Bensimon, the company remains on target for an August 31st filing date of the 10K as well as its first and second quarter 10Qs.

“At this time we have a very good handle of the company’s books,” says Bensimon.  “We have the majority if not all of the correct information for the 10K prepared and are geared up to go into review before handing the files over to the auditors.  Our auditors are expecting delivery of this data by week’s end and seem willing to assist in expediting the audit’s completion.”

Generally, it takes an auditor roughly two weeks to complete a 10K review provided all of the information presented by the company is well prepared.  Should this be the case, the company’s 10K can possibly see a filing date as early as August 10th.

Lastly, as it concerns the proposed pre-launch walk through, this past Friday, July 24th, 2009, the company reinforced its commitment to making a presentation available without posing unnecessary risk to proprietary technology or undermining SEC regulations.   The solution was to form an independent, unpaid board committee comprised of the company’s shareholders.   This board committee would review the platform and report back to all other shareholders and the public.   The company simply required that all interested persons be shareholders of record by July 24, 2009, submit request for board consideration by end of trading day today, Monday, July 27, 2009, willing to execute an extensive non-disclosure and subject themselves to the legal conditions and implications of SEC Full Disclosure rules.   To date, only one shareholder has submitted a request to join the company’s shareholder’s board.


Austin Chamber and eDOORWAYS Corporation Announce Official U.S. Headquarters Opening, Planned Platform Launch in Austin

July 29, 2009

image001(3)Austin, Texas: July 29, 2009: The Austin Chamber is pleased to announce that eDOORWAYS Corporation (EDWY.PK), the web-based consumer problem solving gateway, lifestyle information source and online business-to-consumer marketplace, has officially established its U.S. headquarters in Austin, Texas. The Consumer 3.0 platform, which has long been envisioned by eDOORWAYS to have its roots planted in Austin, has now been fulfilled as the company joins the Austin Chamber of Commerce.

Committing to a soft launch of its web-based platform scheduled for Thursday, October 1, 2009, eDOORWAYS’ first doorway “SOLVE” will make its debut in Austin, with a national rollout to follow.

“We envision eDOORWAYS as a machine that formalizes how businesses reach prospective buyers in the most efficient way possible,” said eDOORWAYS Chairman and CEO Gary Kimmons. “eDOORWAYS is a grassroots economic development platform that will rally and empower America’s small businesses, drive commerce and help encourage job creation.”

Currently, the company which is primarily operated by 18 consultants relocated its headquarters to a 2,500 square foot location in downtown Austin.  These consultants have the option to sign on as full time employees, and eDOORWAYS plans to ramp up operations dramatically over the next six months; anticipating a growth in staffing within 60 to 90 days.

eDOORWAYS shows the potential to become a powerful economic development and job creation mechanism. The platform demonstrates the ability to drive new commerce to vendors and facilitate instantaneous, one-to-one connections with pre-screened, ‘golden nugget’ prospects. Using eDOORWAYS, real buyers are connected with ideal sellers, allowing for more and better business to occur, which spurs increased employment opportunities.

“eDOORWAYS is a perfect fit for Austin and we are proud to welcome such a successful and innovative company as a new corporate citizen to not only our community but as a member of the Austin Chamber as well,” said Gary Farmer, Chair of Opportunity Austin and President of Heritage Title. “Since Austin is such a great place to live and work, it makes it an excellent home and eDOORWAYS will help to further the momentum behind Opportunity Austin, the Chamber’s initiative to create new jobs.”

Austin is a particularly attractive market for national and international business due to its low cost of stable power, an abundance of highly skilled technical labor, minimal risk for natural disasters and predictable weather conditions. Opportunity Austin is the Austin Chamber of Commerce’s five-year economic development initiative to foster sustainable growth through the creation of new jobs and increased payroll in the Central Texas region.

“eDOORWAYS is delighted to be headquartered in Austin and launch its technology in this great city,” said Kimmons. “With its wealth of small businesses, talented and industrious work pool, tech savvy consumers and cultural diversity, Austin is a perfect market for us. Our fervent hope and intention is to become a prime mover in the creation of jobs, advancement of technology and economic development in the Greater Austin area.”


eDOORWAYS Notifies Shareholders Of Cancellation of Live Walk-Through Due to Limited Shareholder Response

July 31, 2009

Recently, we extended an offer to show SOLVE to those shareholders who would like to gain a better understanding of the design and workings of the SOLVE doorway via a live walk-through demonstration.  These same shareholders would then have the duty of giving an unbiased reporting to those shareholders who were not made privy to the demonstration.

Our offer was made with the provision that any shareholder desiring to view the presentation would be required to make necessary representation that they were, in fact, a shareholder of record and that they would comply with certain SEC legislation that would limit their activity in the marketplace as it relates to trading eDOORWAYS securities.  This placed a burden on most of our shareholders that has proven difficult to overcome.

Of the more than two thousand shareholders of record holding eDOORWAYS stock today, virtually no one elected to participate. There were fewer than five verified shareholders of record who chose to do so. This number represents less than 1% of the current shareholders holding eDOORWAYS stock and collectively hold less than 1% of the Issued and Outstanding Shares.  Unfortunately, these numbers would have had to be much greater for us to justify going forward with the demonstration.

First, the cost of doing so would have been prohibitive to accommodate such a small number of volunteers. Even more important for us all to consider, however, is the relative risk of entrusting an extremely limited number of participants, whom combined hold a fraction of the overall share count, with the responsibility of reporting their observations and opinions to our entire shareholder base and the rest of the world.  A fair representation of shareholder interest for an example would have been a greater number of shareholders (twenty or thirty) irrespective of stock ownership, or, a fewer number of shareholders with significant (thirty to sixty million shares) combined holdings.

We do not believe that it is fair to you, our shareholders, to risk the value of your holdings on the basis of one or two opinions from individuals who combined may have much less at stake than you.  The question we had to ask ourselves was this:  Is this group truly capable of portraying SOLVE as it should be seen and will this group be considerate of shareholder risk??

With the soft launch now looming as a near-term event, we believe it to be far better for us to wait until everyone can see the platform. We ask for your patience as we await this event, and we thank you for being loyal and supportive investors in eDOORWAYS Corporation.


eDOORWAYS Announces Domain Switch

August 5, 2009

In preparation for launch testing, eDOORWAYS Corporation is implementing a second domain for our corporate web site.   We will relocate our current corporate presence from www.edoorways.com to www.edoorwayscorp.com as we prepare for our October soft launch.

Within the next 30 days, shareholders will have to use the new corporate site in order to access company information.  A series of tests and upgrades to what will now become the platform’s domain will be performed during the September month.  Upon the October 1st soft launch date, eDOORWAYS will essentially begin operating two websites.  The platform site (www.edoorways.com) will house the “SOLVE” and “LEARN” doors along with the brand’s five other doorways.  The corporate site (www.edoorwayscorp.com) will maintain the company’s corporate presence.

Although these sites will provide links to one another, the separation is needed for easier navigation between corporate information and platform use.


eDOORWAYS Corporation Remains Confident About Filing Date

August 17, 2009

We are steaming forward to meet the expected filing date of the 10K.  As mentioned in a release on July 15, 2009, we  informed shareholders that Mr. Dan Bensimon had developed a sound basis in which he felt confident to draw a reasonable conclusion as to the completion of the company’s filings.  To date, Mr. Bensimon remains steadfast regarding the timing of the 10K filing.

As of yesterday, Sunday, August 16th, 2009, Mr. Bensimon turned over a fairly completed 10K document to both the company’s SEC counsel and auditor.  Again, according to Mr. Bensimon’s conservative estimates, with added consideration given towards the auditors having worked alongside the company to complete filings, he expects that barring any unforseen legal matters or major concerns from the auditor, the review of the 10K document should be complete and ready to file in the next two weeks or so.  This timing remains in line with his original time estimate.

Also, at Mr. Bensimon’s recommendation, we are hiring a second accountant whose primary function will be to assist Bensimon and the auditors with finalizing the outstanding 10Q filings and to immediately start work on the 3rd Quarter filing.  The idea is to further Mr. Bensimon’s initiatives in putting the company’s bookkeeping on track and keeping the company timely with future filings.


eDOORWAYS to License Real Time’s Source Code to Fuel Platform’s “Power Keys”

August 18, 2009

Real Time Data is going to provide the architecture for eDOORWAYS’ “Power Keys” economy through a software development agreement.

We have solidified our plans to shake up the world’s current internet revenue models with the delivery of our “Power Keys” platform.  This news comes on the heels of our having engaged Real Time Data of Orange County, CA in a software development agreement allowing eDOORWAYS to license and customize Real Time Data’s proprietary source code for use with eDOORWAYS’ “Power Keys.”

Real Time Data, which specializes in custom software development focusing on real time systems that contain large databases requiring high throughput and high reliability, has provided custom development services to more than 100 clients for over 15 years.  Clients include Technicolor Creative Services, the University of California Berkeley, Neighborhood Housing Services of America and the Bank of American Samoa.  Real Time Data has also provided custom development services for ICL Systems whose vehicle logistics reporting system is used by a multitude of vehicle manufacturers including Honda, Volkswagen, Toyota Canada, and Mercedes.

The software company is popularly known for the real-time streaming financial data software used by investors.  The Forex feed Real Time Data maintains includes data from over 30 International and US Forex contributors.  Their real time equities and futures service provides data from all North American Futures and Equities exchanges including NYSE, AMEX, NASDAQ, NYMEX, NYBOT, COMEX, CBOT, ICE, and CME.

eDOORWAYS has been eying the software firm’s real-time data feed software for the financial markets for some time now.  The data feed software listens for subscribed symbols (e.g. “IBM”) and distributes real-time quotes to all subscribers following “IBM.” eDOORWAYS’ “Power Keys” requires similar real-time notification for business subscribers when consumers search for subscribed keywords (“Power Keys”).

Real Time Data has agreed to license and modify the data server software to serve “Power Keys” notifications instead of financial quotes, and to provide a suitable API to the programming team at eDOORWAYS.  Real Time Data will also provide an API for that team to use to notify the Power Keys Expert when a consumer wishes to initiate a chat.

“eDOORWAYS is extremely pleased to be working with Real Time Data,” said Gary Kimmons, Chairman and CEO of eDOORWAYS Corp.  “Real Time Data’s software has been battle tested on an international level in various markets.  The software license we’re acquiring already provides the architecture designed for our needs.”

What this means for eDOORWAYS is that our “Power Key” model will not have to wait until the Beta launch to take flight.  The license and customization agreement between the two companies has allowed eDOORWAYS to take a giant leap forward in the development of one of its “big picture” business revenue models.  Now with the “Power Key” function already close to 50% complete, Real Time Data will concentrate the next six weeks in adapting its software to the eDOORWAYS platform – possibly allowing “Power Keys” to make its debut with the ‘SOLVE’ doorway.

People close to our company believe that Real Time Data’s proven high through-put, high reliability and high redundancy messaging server technology will greatly enhance eDOORWAYS’ ability to provide non-stop service for eDOORWAYS’ customers.  However, the greatest anticipation is that “Power Keys” will transcend the traditional Internet advertising model, possibly leaving larger well known companies gasping for air as they try to keep up with eDOORWAYS’ proposed revenue model.


eDOORWAYS Introduces “Power Key” Economy of Scale

August 19, 2009

An alternative to traditional “AdWords”, our new Power Key Web model will provide a level playing field for small businesses, offering live connectivity to pre-qualified gold nugget sales prospects.

We might have pleasantly surprised many of our followers yesterday as we prepare for the soft launch in Austin, Texas, October 1st.  We announced the licensing and customization of Real Time Data’s proprietary source code [real-time data feed software] as we mean to expedite delivery and use of our “Power Key” business/revenue model.

We had realized that the software company’s data feed software shared many, if not most, of the underlying principles of eDOORWAYS’ “Power Key” model.  The data feed software, which listens for subscribed symbols (e.g. “RIMM”), distributing real time quotes to all subscribers following “RIMM,” will process the same functions for eDOORWAYS’ “Power Keys.”  This will allow real-time notification for business subscribers when consumers search for subscribed keywords in the “SOLVE” or other doorways.

“Formally introducing the ‘Power Key’ web model to the public is very exciting,” said Gary Kimmons.  “Not only will Power Keys change the typical Internet advertising model, but it will also create a revolutionary new online economy of scale not yet seen on the web.”

Unlike Internet revenue models such as Google AdWords, in which the highest bidders invariably receive the best ranking, eDOORWAYS’ “Power Keys” democratizes web commerce, empowering America’s small businesses by putting them on a level playing field with corporate goliaths and ensuring that gold nugget sales prospects are connected with the very best possible vendors that can satisfy their unique demands.

Here’s how it would work: Ultimately, vendors will be able to create “Power Keys” promoting various goods and services, for example, “plumber,” “private tutor,” “house painter,” etc. These keys will be rented for an affordable fee commensurately relative to market demand, industry, and the overall status of the economy.  Consumers, who have free access to the service, enter a doorway like “SOLVE” with their query (e.g., “my boiler just busted; can I get it repaired or will I need it replaced?”). “Power Key” renters are alerted to the query and have the opportunity to respond, or “ping” the customer, in a real-time environment where they can provide information, answer questions, and bid on the job against other competing local vendors.

“Power Key” renters pay for the rights to premium, real-time connectivity to pre-qualified, gold nugget sales prospects. While anyone can create a “Power Key” category, no matter how obscure (“a” is for “aardvarks”), if no consumers “ping” a category after thirty days, the business does not get charged the licensing fee. Conversely, if certain categories prove to yield huge business volume, eDOORWAYS reserves the right to raise the “rent” on those “Power Keys” based on market demand and an algorithm of usage statistics.  “Power Key” retailers can also sublease their keys, giving them the right to transfer their contracts for a financial benefit.  This creates a secondary economy within the platform, allowing profits to be derived from sources other than individual buy-sell events.

“With ‘Power Keys’, eDOORWAYS transcends the traditional Internet advertising model,” says Mr. Kimmons. “‘Power Keys’ represent a true breakthrough concerning the ways we think about Internet commerce. This economy of scale model facilitates the ultimate sales connection: the establishment of immediate, cross-the-counter, real-time connectivity. While most of the advertising on the web provides only a good sense of who’s spending the most dollars, ‘Power Keys’ creates live engagement between vendors and customers while allowing ‘Power Key’ retailers greater profitability through subscribed keyword appreciative values.  We are tremendously excited about this platform, and the business philosophy underpinning it, and are eagerly anticipating it to be fully active for our beta launch.”

eDOORWAYS Explains Our Service Platform Business Revenue Model

August 25, 2009

Our revenue model will offer a host of attractive free services and features that build brand awareness and loyalty, organically providing revenue opportunities.

“There’s been a good deal of talk in the media lately surrounding the idea of the new, ‘free’ economy, as elucidated by Chris Anderson in his book, ‘Free: The Future Of A Radical Price’,” says eDOORWAYS Chairman and CEO Gary Kimmons. “Taking the record industry as an example, many of today’s top new bands—Radiohead comes to mind—have grown comfortable with giving away their music online for free or for a nominal fee in order to generate a loyal fan base that will then purchase merchandise and concert tickets. Similarly, while other social networks are searching for ways to make money via traditional, static advertising revenue models, eDOORWAYS will provide a host of attractive free services and features to users that will organically build our platform and provide myriad revenue opportunities.”

When the SOLVE doorway is launched in October, consumers will have free access to real-time problem solving, and be able to garner competitive information from service providers that bid for their business. These users can also generate communities of likeminded consumers for the purpose of the open exchange of information. Conversely, small business service providers will receive complimentary record keeping and sales tracking support, free business listings, and general marketplace information. 

While building our brand, eDOORWAYS plans to monetize our services in an organic fashion, one that empowers consumers and American small businesses alike, by charging for premium connectivity to “gold nugget prospects,” storefront upgrades, CRM support, private label licensing, targeted marketing, back office support services, and more. For example, while any small business can access eDOORWAYS for free, “PowerKey” renters will have exclusive claim on gold nugget sales prospects, providing these small businesses with conceivably unlimited opportunities for new business generation. If certain PowerKey categories prove to yield huge business volume, eDOORWAYS reserves the right to raise the “rent” on those PowerKeys based on market demand and an algorithm of usage statistics. (PowerKey retailers can then rent or sublease the keys, and have the right to transfer their contracts, thereby creating an economy within the platform outside the selling of advertising or individual buy-sell events.)

“A global shift is taking place in which people are beginning to refuse to pay for information and services they know they can find free of charge on the Internet,” says Mr. Kimmons. “Businesses that deny this sea change in the ways we do business do so at their peril, while companies that embrace this shift in the Zeitgeist have the opportunity to build longstanding trust, loyalty, and market share.  That is the philosophy behind eDOORWAYS’ suite of free and paid-for features and services, which we eagerly anticipate sharing with our shareholders, small businesses, the media, and general public in the fall.”


eDOORWAYS Corporation Has New Domain

August 25, 2009

In preparation for launch testing, eDOORWAYS Corporation has implemented a second domain for our corporate web site.   We’ve relocated our current corporate presence from www.edoorways.com to www.edoorwayscorp.com as we prepare for our October soft launch.

Shareholders must use the new corporate site in order to access company information.  A series of tests and upgrades to what will now become the platform’s domain will be performed during the September month.  Upon the October 1st soft launch date, eDOORWAYS will essentially begin operating two websites.  The platform site (www.edoorways.com) will house the “SOLVE” and “LEARN” doors along with the brand’s five other doorways.  The corporate site (www.edoorwayscorp.com) is now the company’s corporate presence.


eDOORWAYS Corporation 10K Audit Ready for Filing

August 31, 2009

Our 10K for 2008 has been posted for public review as we take the final steps for making our SEC filing.

We are moving forward on a positive note as we complete our 2008 10K audit.  We have aggressively steamed forward to meet our expected completion date.  We’ve posted the 10K audit to the company’s new site, www.edoorwayscorp.com for public review.  The document and associated financials posted are shown as “unaudited”, since the auditor must make a final sign-off signifying approval.

“We have met our self-imposed deadline of completing the 10K final draft by today and we determined it would be best to afford shareholders the ability to acknowledge this as we enter into the filing process”, said Gary Kimmons.

Typically, once a final draft of the 10K audit is submitted, it goes through a filing process that can take up to 72 hours to complete.  This includes Edgarizing a 50 plus page document and committing to one final review by auditors of the Edgarized version of the 10K audit before it’s filed.  While this process should be of no consequence, for smaller companies like eDOORWAYS which strive to secure shareholder confidence, these logistics aren’t usually understood by shareholders.  To that end, Mr. Kimmons felt it appropriate to make evident to investors the company’s completion of the 10K final draft.

Our post of the 10K for the year ended December 31, 2008 will act as information for you, our shareholders, and will be superseded by the actual filing of the 10K.  The financial statements included in the posted 10K have been prepared by management along with the overall review of the final draft by legal counsel – both with no assurance that adjustments or modifications will not be required.  However, the company, along with its Senior Financial & Accounting Specialist, Mr. Dan Bensimon, have committed to the filing process, which includes these final reviews, strongly believing that such modifications are not likely or if required would likely result in non-material adjustments.

The move for us to post our 10K prior to its filing (that can still occur today), may be considered a bit unorthodox.  However, people close to eDOORWAYS consider this action appropriate as a means to reaffirm shareholder confidence.

“The company is marching toward an important day in the weeks to come and we’d like our house to be in absolute order for that moment,” said Kimmons.  “I cannot state enough that the work Mr. Dan Bensimon has conducted here is unquestionably top notch and greatly beneficial to the company and our shareholders regardless of the time it has taken.  We are pleased that we have the ability to post the 10K final draft today and look forward to an expeditious filing of this final draft.  Should all things continue as well as they’ve been so far, the outstanding Q’s should be completed within short order and we could see our soft launch date of October 1st, 2009, as being ‘current’ on our financials.”


eDOORWAYS To Host Pre-Launch Event

September 4, 2009

The city of Austin, shareholders, media and local businesses are invited to be among the first to experience the live soft launch of “SOLVE”.

eDOORWAYS will be hosting an event to inaugurate the soft launch of its first doorway, “SOLVE,” in Austin, Texas on Thursday, October 1, 2009, from 6-10PM (CDT).  The pre-launch event will be held at the AT&T Executive Education and Conference Center.  The event will feature a live demonstration of the platform’s “SOLVE” doorway, a question-and-answer session with company Chairman and CEO Gary Kimmons and dialogue with technology contributors, food, drinks, and meet-and-greet networking opportunities.

Space is limited for this event.  Registration is required and the dress code is business casual. Please RSVP by visiting www.eDoorwaysCorp.com and select the Investor Relations Group tab to register.

More on Pre-Launch Event for SOLVE’s Debute

September 8, 2009

We closed out last week with an announcement of our soft launch “pre-launch” party.

On Friday, September 4th, 2009 we stated we will give the city of Austin, its shareholders, the media and local businesses the opportunity to experience the soft launch of our platform’s “SOLVE” doorway at an event we will host at the AT&T Executive Education and Conference Center in Austin Texas.

The purpose of the gala is to give the people of Austin and our shareholders an opportunity to be the first to experience the baseline functionality of the ground-breaking Internet platform from a perspective that will not initially be available online come October 2nd.  Bearing in mind that a significant portion of the eDOORWAYS platform, including its first doorway “SOLVE”, is ultimately powered by human interaction and contribution, what will be at first posted to the web will not have absolute functionality.   It will take time to populate fields, sign on new users and spur relevant interactions between businesses and consumers that would form a truly demonstrable platform.  For this reason, Gary Kimmons, along with his technology consultancy teams will offer a live demonstration of the SOLVE doorway to attending guests.

Mr. Kimmons and his team will look to provide the audience with interactive working examples of how SOLVE would actually work once the eDOORWAYS platform is fully operational within its beta form.  The purpose of the soft launch version of SOLVE is to serve as a test vehicle that is used to ascertain the correct design, look and operation of the service offering.  By this, additional focus groups will be employed, businesses and consumers will be signed up and functionality will be measured.  If modifications are required, this will be the time to acknowledge them and make the necessary adjustments and enhancements at a significant savings of time and cost.  This must be accomplished before the service goes beta.  In short, there is still substantial work to be done after the soft launch in order to arrive at a fully functional beta version of the platform.  However, management and company consultants believe that on October 1st, the city of Austin, shareholders and the world at large will fully share our confidence in our ability to ultimately achieve our objectives.

Festivities will also be part of the pre-launch event.  Guests will be able to enjoy good ol’ Texas cuisine, drinks and music; with the opportunity to network within a “meet and greet” social networking atmosphere.

The agenda for the event, which is scheduled to run between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. CDT, is proposed as follows:

Registration:                                                  6:00 – 7:00 PM

Welcome & Introductions:                               7:15 – 7:30 PM

SOLVE Live Demonstration:                             7:30 – 8:00 PM

Questions & Answers:                                     8:00 – 8:30 PM

Meet & Greet/Networking, Party                       8:30 – 10:00 PM

Further details regarding location and lodging can be found either at our new corporate website (www.eDoorwaysCorp.com) where you can RSVP  or by contacting the AT&T Executive Education and Conference Center at 877-744-8822 / 512-404-3600 or by visiting www.meetattexas.com where you can access the Reservations tab (Please refer to: Group code: PRODLA0909 or eDOORWAYS).


Applied Information Sciences to Oversee Integration of Our Platform’s Doorways

September 16, 2009

Our strengthening capital position and rapid progress in the development of our second doorway is affording us the ability to connect with an esteemed software systems engineering veteran.

eDOORWAYS looks to secure the long term development of our platform with the engagement of one of the technology industry’s more prominent software and systems engineering firms, Applied Information Sciences (AIS), to assist the company with the ultimate design of the Web 3.0 platform intended to support the unique capabilities displayed by each doorway.  This move comes partly on the heels of our strengthening financial position and growing interest from new investment resources.  The paralleling motivator is the unexpected and rapid progress in development of what will likely become our platform’s second doorway.

When the initial expectancy of the eDOORWAYS platform was to simply launch and manage SOLVE through the first few months of its rollout, acquiring specialty skills from a veteran technology firm like AIS was not a primary consideration.  For smaller companies like eDOORWAYS, the sort of quality and expert assistance AIS offers, which is usually attached to a price tag commensurate with the clients they keep – Lockheed Martin, Verizon, GEICO, various State & Local Government Agencies, the U.S. Armed Forces, the Federal Bureau of Investigations, etc., is typically financially out of range.  Nearing 30 years in the business, having been nominated by the Washington Business Journal as one of the “50 Best Places to Work” boasting over 200 employees and as both a Microsoft Managed Gold Partner (the highest partner relationship offered by Microsoft) and an IBM Business Partner, AIS has no shortage of viable projects.  However, with the impending soft launch just a few weeks away, growing investment interest, and the reality of other doorways quickly coming to fruition, after several months of patient due diligence, eDOORWAYS has made it on to AIS’ client list.

“There are currently two amazing technology consultancy firms that have worked tirelessly to assist us in delivering a rather incredible and unique service offering to the web,” said Gary Kimmons.  “However, to be accepted onto the client list of a firm like AIS is truly exciting and a positive indication that we’ve been heading in the right direction.  I’m confident that with the help of AIS, the dynamics of what we envision as our ultimate service offering will surely come to life and take flight.”

At this time, AIS is not making any contributions to the current SOLVE doorway that could possibly impede the launch.  The firm is simply evaluating the existing technology, looking at market availability, open source options and components, and making enterprise platform recommendations.  However, after the October 1st soft launch of the SOLVE doorway AIS will take a much more proactive role.  This would include developing an open application programming interface (API) that will provide ultimate flexibility to pull the needed resources from the cloud as well as building the “cradle” which will allow for the seamless integration and collaborative operating of the various doorways of the Web 3.0 platform.

“We are extremely pleased to assist eDOORWAYS on the overall development of their platform,” said Fred Elleman, CEO and Founder of Applied Information Sciences.  “We believe eDOORWAYS will help usher in the future of the Internet, and open up a host of options for America’s small businesses.  We are very happy to play a part in this and may look to play a greater role in the future should things continue go well.”

Building a platform that can effectively serve the lifestyle of future generations seems to be a unique challenge because it involves visualizing how people are going to live their lives in the future and designing an environment that empowers them now for that future.  Yet, people close to eDOORWAYS strongly believe that AIS is the one firm that can indeed bring reality to the unique technical challenge of making the platform extremely powerful yet easy to use; in turn, very profitable.


eDoorways To Increase Marketing Efforts With the Focus Being On The Day After October 1st

September 17, 2009

We are hard at work delivering our message to the city of Austin, TX, regarding the unveiling of our first doorway, “SOLVE.”  While much attention has been given to the actual event, our efforts extend well beyond filling the ballroom at the AT&T Executive Education and Conference Center with able bodies October 1st.

Our marketing focus for the event is primarily on the first wave of businesses and consumers needed to register for use beginning October 2nd.   With the support of the Austin Chamber of Commerce, eDoorways has reached out to over 2,400 chamber members via direct mail campaigns.  We have also started advertising on the Chamber’s website and newsletter, which reaches over 10,000 local businesses as well as other local business networking sites.   Efforts have included individualized campaigns to over 3,000 small businesses in the Austin area and thousands of young adults within the Austin’s college community; alerting them of the unique opportunities eDoorways will offer once fully operational.

eDoorways is also slowly phasing in traditional media outreach as we anticipate being ready for the Austin consumer markets within 90 days of the initial soft launch phase.  However, we have already embarked on a social media campaign on Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn, to raise general awareness of eDoorways and our services for consumers, targeting “Net Geners” in addition to the business community.

“The strategy is to save our fire power on ‘traditional’ commercial marketing, such as print, outdoor, radio, television, etc., until the platform moves into the upper phases of its soft launch and is ready for consumer input,” states Kristen Claflin, our Brand Marketing and Site Monetization Strategist.  “This is why there is and will continue to be greater emphasis on the attraction of business by way of online advertising and extremely aggressive direct marketing, aimed at not only bringing businesses to the unveiling event, but to pre-sign those businesses for future service after October 1st.”

The approach we are taking to marketing the event in relation to the soft launch of our first doorway is a tactical one.  Considering the soft launch has been planned to occur in phases, beginning with its unveiling October 1st where we will begin with presenting the functionality of the SOLVE doorway, conserving precious marketing dollars meant for consumer assimilation is key.  When the soft launch is in its final stage and the platform is in full service allowing the businesses and consumers of Austin to begin working together in real-time to solve problems and conduct business within the SOLVE doorway, a full out marketing assault will commence.  This is the primary reason for the direct marketing campaigns currently employed by us; to rapidly move the SOLVE doorway through the soft launch phases by delivering local businesses to the platform.  In the next coming week, Gary Kimmons is scheduled to personally visit small business owners in the Austin area with the intent to encourage them to attend the unveiling event, educate them as to what eDoorways means to the future of the internet as well as small business and ultimately secure new membership.

“With the launch of the ‘SOLVE’ doorway around the corner, the eDoorways team has been actively engaging the Austin community, both business and consumer with the current emphasis on business,” said Mr. Kimmons.  “We’re making sure we have the necessary components in place to properly circle the welcome wagons, roll out the red carpet, and swing the doors open wide to ingratiate ourselves to the community here and unveil the initial phase of our soft launch of SOLVE in high style.”

To date, we are already fielding various job requests, pre-signing inquiries and service offerings.  Demand for the event is also high as registration is rapidly filling up.  The hotel block we initially established has required adjustment as registrants quickly filled the block to capacity.   Local media is expected to be onsite and we  anticipate a full house come Thursday, October 1st.

“This is an extremely exciting time for eDoorways,” said Mr. Kimmons. “Our mission is to empower both consumers and small businesses by allowing them to connect with one another in the simplest way possible.  We believe we will roll through the phases of the soft launch and into the beta form of the platform rather quickly.  We intend to have a few weeks where our prospective audience can get familiar with the current GUI as it builds; allowing us to make adjustments though their participation and feedback.  We will then invite them to be among the first formally signed up onto the platform before fully opening the doors to consumer interaction.  We expect to announce and launch the fully functioning beta version soon after completion of the soft launch phases.”

eDoorways’ October 1st Unveiling Is Expected To Be Both Entertaining and Educational

September 23, 2009

We anticipate that our October 1st unveiling of “SOLVE” will be as entertaining as it is educational.  With the company settling on celebrity or media personalities to host the event, entertainment, menus, etc., the introduction of “SOLVE” should be rather impressive; especially for a smaller company.  However, what is likely most to impress the audience is the strong support eDoorways will demonstrate.

 “We are not alone,” stated Gary Kimmons, Chairman & CEO of the eDoorways Corporation.  “Come Thursday, October 1st, 2009, it will become evident that our company is surrounded by real, dedicated professionals who are well respected, highly intelligent and extremely motivated to push eDoorways forward and bring our ‘real-time’ platform to market.”

 It is expected that Kimmons will be joined on stage by Real Time Data and Bluestone Partners, two of the technology firms that have greatly contributed to the development of the SOLVE doorway.  Representatives from these firms will assist Gary Kimmons in providing a compelling demonstration, answer questions and provide technological insight into where the platform is today as well as tomorrow’s greater possibilities.

 With the “SOLVE” doorway planned to soft launch in phases, the final phase is expected to complete within 90 days of the initial unveiling October 1st.  The company intends to roll through the phases of the soft launch and into the beta form of the platform rather quickly with a view on intense and practical focus group testing and adjustments based on feedback prior to a fully functional version hitting the market.

 Participating technology teams and specialists appear fully confident in the overall development of what could potentially become the first true “real-time” business to consumer internet platform.  People close to the company continue to express extreme enthusiasm and are very impressed by the positive reaction the city of Austin has demonstrated.


Familiar Faces Anticipated to Host and Report on eDoorways’ Unveiling of “SOLVE”

September 25, 2009

eDoorways will enlist a News 8 Austin favorite as our host for the unveiling event and we will receive a hand from a familiar face in reporting.

We are continuing our search for Austin entertainment to keep the tempo upbeat at our October 1st unveiling of “SOLVE”.   We have found the event’s primary energy source in media and television personality, Amy Hadley, who is now set to host and emcee the event.

As Hadley’s website states, Amy’s forte is “getting involved and interacting with people, unscripted” – and this she does flawlessly.  Whether it’s engaging in a difficult urban discipline such as Parkour, firing .45 Colt revolvers from horseback or swinging high above the ground on a trapeze, Hadley brings fun and excitement to every adventure.

A recipient of many honors, awards and nominations, including the Lone Star Emmy nomination (Texas Emmy Chapter) for her specialty reporting and human interest series “Fit for Friday”, Mrs. Hadley is a well respected media personality in Austin.

“Whether Co-hosting Austin City Limits Backstage Pass, being the live reporter for the News 8 Austin’s Morning live show, or occasionally filling in as an anchor for the network, Amy Hadley is a face everyone knows in Austin,” stated Gary Kimmons, Chairman & CEO of eDoorways Corporation.  “My job and that of our technology teams is to deliver a highly compelling demonstration of what may become the web’s first true ‘real-time’ platform.  Keeping the audience smiling, laughing and motivated, especially an Austin crowd, can only be accomplished by one of Austin’s favorite women.  I know Amy is going to bring such a spark and commercial appeal to this event, eDoorways will be the benefactor of her brand well after the unveiling of “SOLVE.”

Another interesting add-on is that of Jennifer Hoffman, a national television and media personality who will be on hand bringing her own dynamism to the event.   Jennifer has reported for NBC News, OK! Magazine and “Good Morning Arizona” on KTVK, co-hosted “Destination TV” on ABC, has appeared on a multitude of national shows including Oprah & Friends and has sat across the board room table from Donald Trump on “The Apprentice.”  Now, as the face and main anchor of QualityStocks News, Ms. Hoffman will work the room during the “SOLVE” unveiling gala in Austin, TX, bringing news of the event straight to the investing community.

People close to our company believe that while the event itself will not have an impact on the success of the “SOLVE” demonstration, the exposure eDoorways is receiving within Austin has significantly increased the possibilities of the company signing up hundreds of businesses prior to a fully functional version of the platform being released.  Adding the charisma of a familiar face [Amy Hadley], the possibilities of our company’s exposure and appeal to the people of Austin, if even for just this event, has increased greatly.

Confidence and excitement continues to build in and around our company as the “real-time” business to consumer internet platform is prepped for its day on stage.


eDoorways Celebrates A Successful Unveiling of the “SOLVE” Doorway at Our Unveiling Event

October 2, 2009

The unveiling of “SOLVE” marks the first phase in the soft launch with much fanfare given at our spectacular unveiling event.

We delivered a truly compelling demonstration of our platform as the company pulls out a major win with the successful unveiling of our first doorway, “SOLVE.”  With the assistance of the very pleasant and witty Amy Hadley, Gary Kimmons gave an audience comprised of eDoorways’ shareholders, Austin business owners and other interested parties, a preview into the “SOLVE” doorway.

“I’m completely overwhelmed by the turn out of supporters,” said Kimmons.  “This is indeed a milestone for this company.  Considering our position in early 2008 vs. where we are today, if there is any question as to the validity of our existence, simply take a look at what we’ve done here tonight.  It’s pretty impressive.”

With a mini concert sized production, the unveiling event provided attendees with an incredible ambiance.  Inside of a brilliantly decorated ball room, where even the main audience seating was arranged in the likeness of the company logo, spectators enjoyed food, drinks, networking and from one of the two stages, grooved to the sounds of Austin’s own growing sensation, T-Bird And The Breaks.

Throughout the presentation, Kimmons was joined by several of our consultants and technology developers.  Social media consultant, Ann Collins, who grew the company’s twitter following from 200 to 10,000 followers within 30 days spoke on the importance of the social media and networking community and its influence on the company’s rapidly growing popularity.  “SOLVE” contributing technology teams, Real Time Data and Bluestone Partners, assisted Amy Hadley with her “real-time” interactions on the platform – and the “LEARN” doorway intelligent technology developer, Jack Crosscope (creator of SmartOne Technology) briefly described the vision and direction of the second doorway.   One of the highlights of the demonstration came from Ian Mitchel, who demonstrated the eDoorways “Apps” for the Apple iPhone as well as the “EC Device” – a space age wireless earpiece with an onboard camera and one inch monitor that comes across the eye.  The EC Device is to ultimately enhance eDoorways’ “real-time” interaction by allowing users to view and stream video content, hands free, through a mobile device, from a first party perspective, anywhere in the world.

The presentation, which can be viewed online within the next business day, wrapped with acknowledgments to the Greater Austin Chamber of Commerce (Tony Shum attended) as well as other key contributors to the event.  The warmest acknowledgment went to the company’s lead consultancy group, AJENE WATSON, LLC, to which Kimmons attributes much of company’s progress, growth and future success.

“The business development division of our firm is very particular about the deals we commit to,” said Ajene Watson, Managing Member of the AJENE WATSON, LLC.  “Like with eDoorways, we engage in long term relationships with our clients; generally 15 months minimum.  We come onboard with the only expectation being, we will roll up our sleeves, dive into the trenches and work diligently to deliver every available resource to our clients, in the upmost responsible manner.  We strongly believe in the future of eDoorways and the grand vision of Gary Kimmons, and despite the trials and tribulations that can often become daunting to a small company, we will not ‘cut and run.’  It took some time to get eDoorways to this unveiling event and it will take a little more time to move through the phases of the soft launch and arrive at a fully functional version of the platform, but, eDoorways will arrive.”

People close to our company were elated by the success of the unveiling event and believe the future for the company has been revealed by this evening.  Kimmons garnered lots of attention as he and his team wowed the audience, exciting ongoing applauds throughout the presentation.


eDOORWAYS Files 10K Audit, Capping Off A Great Week

October 5, 2009

The day after a spectacular unveiling of “SOLVE,” eDoorways continues to prove our dedication to greater achievement by filing our 10K audit.

We announced that on Friday, October 2, 2009 we successfully filed our 2008 10K Audit.  With the unveiling of “SOLVE,” and the 10K filed, eDoorways is now a step closer to completing the phases of our soft launch as well as posturing for a greater exchange, such as the OTCBB or NASDAQ-SC.   Our company will now maintain keen focus on the remaining quarterly filings.

With no apologies for the time taken to complete the company’s 10K Filings, Mr. Dan Bensimon, eDoorways’ Senior Financial & Accounting Specialist, stated, “While it certainly took longer than even I estimated to complete the company’s audit, the attention paid to detail in this instance was crucial to the financial health of the company and should pay dividends to its future.  Over the past several months I’ve had an opportunity to work with a dedicated group of professionals whose intent it seems is to build eDoorways, its products, services and business model into an ongoing concern.  This simply cannot be accomplished with any aspects of their books ever in question.  Today, I believe we’ve taken care of any open issues and have laid the groundwork for a new financial discipline to be enacted and followed by the company.”

In order to be considered “fully” current, eDoorways must at least file the 1st and 2nd quarter Q’s.  However, the 3rd quarter filing also requires completion within this fourth quarter of 09’ in order for us to achieve and/or maintain a current status.  We are intently focused on completing all of our quarterly filings within the year.

“We continue to consistently prove to our shareholders, investors and other onlookers that our team is seriously dedicated to all tasks,” stated Gary Kimmons.  “Not only will we diligently strive daily to produce disruptive ground breaking technologies and services for the web, but equally seek to build a real, respectable and profitable company.”

People close to our company are excited by the success of the unveiling event and equally as pleased with the filing of the 10k the very next day.  Continuing to be amazed by the company’s tenacity and the positive reaction from the people of Austin, supporters strongly believe that a bright future is eminent for eDoorways.


Over 100 Businesses Sign Up With eDoorways Within First 72 Hours

October 6, 2009

The SOLVE site unveiling has quickly peaked the interest of Austin-based businesses.   Well over 100 businesses have signed-up to participate in the remaining phases of the platform’s soft launch.  Quickly approaching 200 registrants, including some consumers, the company now has hard evidence of its target audience’s interest.

“The question of whether or not small businesses will be interested in the “SOLVE” doorway has clearly been answered,” stated Gary Kimmons.  “The majority of the sign-ups occurred over the weekend and through yesterday evening.  If in just three days we’re approaching 200 sign-ups for the purpose of completing the phases of the soft launch, I can only imagine what we’ll look like by the time we’re ready for full consumer interaction in 90 days.  Evidence of the potential critical mass is brewing.”

eDoorways initiated a grass roots campaign reaching Austin based businesses and “net gener’s” to introduce the platform at the unveiling event.   Using an array of social media forums, direct mailings to thousands of small businesses, street canvassing, videos, radio, outlets provided by the Greater Austin Chamber of Commerce and public forums, eDoorways garnered the attention needed to not only have a well attended event, but to also cause genuine interest from the people of Austin.

With over 10,000 followers on Twitter, Facebook fans increasing daily and overwhelming correspondences through the corporate blog and email, eDoorways is poised to continue signing up hundreds of businesses prior to consumer interaction.

“We’re just getting started with our marketing roll out plan,” stated Kristen Claflin, Brand Marketing and Site Monetization Consultant for eDoorways.  “Within this remaining quarter, there will be a noticeable increase in marketing efforts within the Austin area with an emphasis toward small businesses.”

Sources close to the company were surprised to find so many businesses signing up so quickly and they expect the number to continue growing weekly.  Should businesses continue to sign up at this rate, a couple of thousand users could be up and ready to engage in “real-time” interactions through the fully functioning consumer ready version of the platform by year end.


eDoorways Produces Video Vignettes Aimed at Promoting Platform

October 7, 2009

eDoorways will produce a series of video vignettes aimed at promoting the eDoorways platform, educating our target audience on the functionality and uses of our doorways as well as communicating our progress to shareholders.  Beginning with, “What is eDoorways?,” we will produce at least one video vignette each week for the next several weeks.

“Now that we’ve proven to have the interest of our target audience, we intend to strengthen the relationship by continuously providing information through a much more dynamic vehicle,” stated Gary Kimmons.  “The video vignettes will provide shareholders and early adopters a view into the company that press releases may not communicate.  We want our supporters to remain informed, educated and entertained.”

Borrowing from the promotional clips we originally produced to market the successful unveiling of “SOLVE,” Gary Kimmons and Amy Hadley (a television host and producer from Austin) join once more to produce the first series of video vignettes.  With close to 200 registrants, over 10,000 Twitter followers, hundreds of Facebook fans and thousands of shareholders, eDoorways has no shortage of interested people to communicate with.

People close to our company believe that the video vignettes will do extremely well in not only communicating with current eDoorways supporters, but in gaining the interest of other potential shareholders and early adopters of the platform.


Unveiling of eDoorways’ “SOLVE” Doorway Covered in Austin Business Journal

October 12, 2009

We had the successful unveiling of our “SOLVE” doorway covered in the October 9, 2009, edition of the Austin Business Journal. In that issue, Staff Writer Christopher Calnan penned an article called “New way to link shops, customers debuts; Vying for business via instant messaging.”  Calnan was present at the Austin, TX, unveiling of the “SOLVE” doorway, about which he said, “At its most basic, Solve is an online tool that enables consumers to send instant messages to several businesses at once to get them to compete with each other on prices.”

He was also impressed with the performance of Gary Kimmons.  “Gary Kimmons hit the stage in Austin last week, channeling Apple Inc. CEO Steve Jobs, to launch a new online tool developed by Kimmons’ company, eDoorways Corp…,” stated Calnan.  “Looking like someone dying to tell a long-held secret, he revealed to the audience of about 165 the company’s product called ‘SOLVE.’”

eDoorways Releases “The SOLVE Doorway” Video

October 13, 2009

Part Two in a Series of Vignettes Being Filmed to Help Audiences Better Understand the eDoorways’ Business Model and Services

We have released the second in a series of video vignettes aimed at introducing eDoorways’ platform, educating our target audience on the functionality and uses of our doorways, as well as communicating our company’s progress to shareholders.  The new video titled “The ‘SOLVE’ Doorway,” follows the successful unveiling of this product to the general public in Austin, TX, on October 2, 2009.

Appearing again with Amy Hadley, a television host and producer from Austin is Gary Kimmons,.  Mr. Kimmons explains in the video that, “‘SOLVE’ is all about the premium connection that we [eDoorways] make between people who have a need, that is the consumer, and the providers of those goods and services who are looking to meet those needs.  So, it’s all about making that connection work as smoothly as possible by connecting real people with real solutions.”

In discussing the video, Mr. Kimmons stated, “The ‘SOLVE’ doorway video, like all of the video vignettes we are producing, is designed to educate our shareholders and future shareholders, those interested in adopting our technology, as well as members of the media in ways that traditional press releases do not do.  The impact that a video has on people is usually much stronger than just the written word.  And as a company in the technology field, we believe strongly in using the most appropriate methods for reaching our target audience.  For that reason, we will be producing further vignettes in the future, about one a week, to keep our investors, customers and the media fully informed of our progress.”

Mr. Kimmons believes that in Austin, TX alone there are 15,500 small businesses that would make prime eDoorways customers.  He also believes that critical mass for SOLVE in the Austin area is only around 300 users, noting at the same time that more than 100 businesses had already signed up for use of the product within the first 72 hours following the unveiling of the SOLVE Doorway in Austin, TX on October 2, 2009.  To date, 183 businesses, have signed onto eDoorways to participate in the remaining phases of the soft launch.

eDoorways Signs Letter of Intent to Purchase Mobile Video Transceiver Technology and Expertise of Ian Mitchell to Create New Subsidiary

October 14, 2009

We have increased the prospect of our service offering reaching an even broader audience through a letter of intent we have signed to purchase the mobile device technology and services of a development team from Ian Mitchell of Universal Design Technologies, Inc.  eDoorways will operate our acquisition as a wholly owned subsidiary.

The technology to be purchased supports what eDoorways calls the “eC Device.”  The eC device will supplement smart phones, providing eDoorways’ service through real-time mobile video interaction.

Mr. Mitchell describes the “eC Device” (the first conceptual iteration of the device was displayed at the unveiling) as a first-person perspective, video transceiver resembling an earpiece with a video display lens that goes over the eye, projecting images to the user. The eDoorways subsidiary plans to develop the eC Device for market consumption as well as provide platform integration of smartphones for the iPhone OS, Android OS, and RIM Blackberry OS.   The eC Device is intended to augment a user’s experience on a mobile handset – providing “Performance Support.”

An Austin-based entrepreneur, Ian Mitchell’s accomplishments stem from a successful real estate career borne from construction, architecture and engineering.  However, his genius is firmly planted in biomedical and interface technologies.  Aside from his co-founding role at M&M Biomedical Corporation, Mr. Mitchell is the President of Universal Design Technologies, Inc.  Through Universal Design Technologies, Inc., Mitchell has contributed to the type of human interactive devices and motion control systems in the market today.

Gary Kimmons said, “The addition of Ian’s technology to eDoorways enhances our ability to bring the web to the user regardless of where that user is.  The eC Device complements our various doorway offerings by making the real-time web options eDoorways provides accessible to anyone anywhere.”

In exchange for eDoorways’ preferred stock, Ian Mitchell will deliver to eDoorways $240,000 in cash.  This exchange will allow eDoorways to own and produce the “eC Device,” operate the subsidiary with an unlimited exclusive right to license its [subsidiary] patents.  In addition, the Company will get 80% of the proceeds received by Mr. Mitchell for the next 3 years as a result of patents and devices related to motion control systems as it pertains to a pending European license with a developer of medical devices.  Also, Mr. Mitchell will join the eDoorways Board of Directors.

Ian Mitchell said, “I believe that the eC Device and the vision of eDoorways will create a synergy capable of making person-to-person interactions via the web more powerful, more useful, more human and available in ‘real-time.’  Currently, the computing world is undergoing a significant shift toward mobile computing.  In Latin America, for example, the ratio is roughly 5 mobile device users for every desktop, fixed-point user.  The future of the web is mobile, and eDoorways plans to take full advantage of this paradigm shift.  The eC Device will play a significant role in our future strategy.”

Gary Kimmons added, “By adding Ian to our board, we are also acquiring a technological expertise that will prove invaluable to our future growth.  He has the wide range of understanding you’d expect from someone who studied both music and chemistry in college.  He has been an architectural consultant, worked in conjunction with NASA and was a core innovator in diagnostic devices focusing on chromatographic spectroscopy.  He is one of those people who knows where technology is going because he is one of the people taking it there.”

People close to our company welcome this acquisition as it will support worldwide acceptance and use of the eDoorways service offering, regardless of which doorway is accessed, increasing and diversifying our company’s revenue streams.


eDoorways Releases Third Video Vignette and Provides New Updates to Shareholders

October 19, 2009

We have released our “Benefits to Small Businesses” video vignette.  This is the third in a series of video vignettes aimed at introducing eDoorways’ platform, educating our target audience on the functionality and uses of our doorways, as well as communicating our progress to shareholders.

In this video, Gary Kimmons explains that “The objective of eDoorways is to allow the small businesses that may have limited resources to make the best use of those resources so that they can compete with the big guys.”

eDoorways believes that of the approximately 15,500 small businesses operating in Austin, the majority of them would make prime eDoorways business customers.  With well over 200 businesses currently signed up since we launched our first phase of the “SOLVE” doorway soft launch with the unveiling event on October 1, 2009, eDoorways is quickly moving into the remaining phases.

“The process of forming the SOLVE focus groups is kicking off this week with a survey to be emailed to all businesses, consumers, and experts who have signed up with eDoorways,” says Ann Collins, the company’s Social Media Marketing Consultant and Project Manager for “SOLVE.”  Collins continues, “The focus groups for this phase will be formed quickly allowing the company to receive feedback from members on the new user interface within a couple of weeks.”

“Now is the time where functionality will be measured,” stated Kimmons.  “If third round modifications are required, we will take this opportunity to acknowledge all suggestions and quickly make the necessary adjustments and enhancements.”

Provided the feedback received requires minimal changes, eDoorways foresees bringing a fully functional consumer version of “SOLVE” to market much sooner than anticipated.  Should this be the case, we intend to immediately launch our beta version of the “SOLVE” doorway, possibly setting a date prior to year end.

People close to our company believe eDoorways to be in a position of strength, making it extremely plausible to not only roll through the remaining phases of the soft launch quickly, delivering a consumer version of “SOLVE” in December, but possibly launching a beta version of the platform by year end as well.  As Gary Kimmons alludes to at the end of the unveiling presentation, the company has been and will continue to be capitalized; he foresees no problems with completing the company’s mission.

As it pertains to the company’s financial health, Mr. Dan Bensimon, Senior Financial & Accounting Specialist, offers the following.   “Through today, the company has raised an additional three quarters of a million dollars through friendly sources as necessary to attain the company’s soft launch goals.  It has also attracted the services of very talented technology and other professionals to build the platform and manage and finance the company through the issuance of approximately $500k in restricted stock.  The company has meticulously managed and dedicated all of its funds to the development of both the platform and company.  With the continued assistance of current financial resources, along with the new financial sources identified for future financing, eDoorways should have the financial capacity to bring the beta version of the platform to market.

With close to $1.5 million additional dollars raised, the company does not seem to be at risk of missing any set milestones; and should the video vignettes continue to make a splash, by the time the consumer and/or beta version of “SOLVE” is released this year, sources close to the company believe there will be over 1,000 users signed up – ready to begin engaging in “real-time” interactions.

eDoorways Invited to Demonstrate on a World Stage at the Ibero-American Science and Technology Education Center’s XVII Annual General Assembly

October 20, 2009

The prominent international organization ISTEC has asked eDoorways to demonstrate our platform and speak on the advances made in education through our intelligent learning solution, “LEARN.”

We have received a great honor as eDoorways is scheduled to present at ISTEC’s (Ibero-American Science and Technology Education Center) 17th annual General Assembly, held the week of October 26 – 30, 2009, on the Campus of the University of New Mexico (UNM) in Albuquerque, NM – USA.  The theme for this year’s General Assembly Is, “Using Technology to enable Collaboration, and Collaboration to Advance Science and Technology.”

Gary Kimmons said, “This is one of those rare opportunities.  Where a growing company like eDoorways has the chance to get on the ‘big stage’ in front of groups like Sun Microsystems, Hewlett Packard, National Instruments, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Charles Darwin Research Station and the World Bank, all members of ISTEC, mainly because we’ve been recognized for the possibilities we bring to society through our innovative platform, doorways and learning solutions.”

ISTEC’s board of directors extends this invitation at the behest of its founder Dr. Ramiro Jordan.

ISTEC, founded in 1990 as a spinoff of UNM, has become one of the largest non-profit consortia in the Americas dedicated to improving the quality of life through education throughout Latin America, Spain and Portugal.  Harnessing the strength of its 20,000 faculty and staff members, ISTEC is able to deliver curricula on science, technology, engineering, math, R&D and entrepreneurship to 120 universities and 18 million online users throughout Latin America and other parts of the world.

“This year’s theme for the General Assembly, ‘Using Technology to Enable Collaboration and Collaboration to Advance Science and Technology’ speaks directly to eDoorways’ business,” states Kimmons.  “We are utilizing the web to foster collaboration between people.  Whether it is matching a buyer and seller or creating educational opportunities through ‘LEARN,’ the foundation of eDoorways is the collaboration of people to achieve common goals with mutually rewarding outcomes in ‘real-time.’”

Dr. Ramiro Jordan said, “ISTEC is dedicated to the improvement of international collaborations in science and technology and the development of human capital, the cornerstone of which is education.  We see eDoorways as a powerful way to utilize the Internet in pursuit of our objectives.  eDoorways has a platform that uses social networking in two areas of great interest to ISTEC.  The first use is for social entrepreneurs, those people who are going to lead social progress in the region.  The second is for commercial entrepreneurs, those who are going to start and grow the businesses of the 21st century that will create the jobs and other opportunities needed.”

He adds, “In the area of education, being that the ‘LEARN’ doorway is premised on an already proven technology, it is expected that eDoorways will aid tremendously in our delivery of educational tools and courses to our users.”

The City of Albuquerque and the Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce support the General Assembly event, linking eDoorways directly into the power source of another growing city.

Sources close to the company believe ISTEC to be a vehicle for the advancement of education and development of generational wealth in the Americas and Iberia, which allows eDoorways great opportunity, especially where it concerns its second developing doorway, “LEARN.”  With an opportunity to grace the world stage, eDoorways expects even greater visibility for its “real-time” web 3.0 platform and “SOLVE” doorway.

eDoorways to Play an Integral Role at XVIIth ISTEC General Assembly

October 22, 2009

eDoorways will be playing an integral role at the Ibero-American Science and Technology Education Center (ISTEC) XVIIth annual General Assembly, held the week of October 26 – 30, 2009, on the Campus of the University of New Mexico (UNM) in Albuquerque, NM – USA.  In addition to co-sponsoring the event, officers of eDoorways will present keynote presentations on Tuesday, October 27, and Wednesday, October 28.

Gary Kimmons  said, “This is a very important event for ISTEC and for eDoorways and the beginning of a partnership between us.  The theme for this year’s General Assembly is, ‘Using Technology to Enable Collaboration, and Collaboration to Advance Science and Technology.’  As it happens, that is exactly what our LEARN and SOLVE Doorways can help bring about.  We foresee a genuine symbiosis here with eDoorways providing the platform for ISTEC’s educational efforts and ISTEC aiding eDoorways with access to new clients in Latin America and Iberia.”

On Tuesday, October 27, Mr. Kimmons, Jack Crosscope, who developed the LEARN Doorway, and Ian Mitchell, who is selling his video technology to eDoorways and joining its board, will offer a presentation titled “The Next Generation Environment for Education and Social Networking.”  During the speech, they will cover the state of Latin American education, education and global steering currents, and the educational implications of social networks. The speakers are developing a web-based international platform that takes these factors into consideration to create a very powerful new environment fostering ground roots innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship.  As part of the program, they will present the salient aspects of the eDoorways 3.0 platform to the General Assembly.

On Wednesday, October 28, Mr. Kimmons’ presentation is called “Taking Higher Education to the Next Level.”   Joining him will be Professor Walter Bumphus of the University of Texas at Austin, who currently serves as a professor in the Community College Leadership Program and as chair of the Department of Educational Administration at the University of Texas at Austin.  He also holds the A. M. Aikin Regents Endowed Chair in Junior and Community College Education Leadership.

They will address the principle issues confronting higher education in Latin America, including the emerging dynamics and their implications to educational administrators.  These dynamics will be taken into consideration as the speakers offer a recommended success path for faculty, staff and students.  In addition, the need for fostering grass roots innovation and creativity will be discussed and a possible solution offered in the form of a new web-based environment the speakers are creating called eDoorways – a Web 3.0 ecommerce and social networking platform that aims to give Latin America a clear path to the future.

Dr. Ramiro Jordan, founder and executive vice president of ISTEC, stated, “The value of eDoorways’ platform to the future of education worldwide cannot be stressed enough.  It offers ISTEC’s members a way to leapfrog education into the 21st century with a minimum of expense.  We believe that this platform is ideally suited to ISTEC’s purposes and needs, and therefore, we will be working with eDoorways very closely long after the XVIIth General Assembly is over.  Next week, Gary and I will be discussing ways to make the partnership between ISTEC and eDoorways a productive and intimate one.”

Mr. Kimmons concluded, “This partnership with ISTEC offers eDoorways access to the 18 millions users who are part of the ISTEC Consortium, which includes 20,000 faculty and staff at over 120 universities in the region.  The commercial potential for eDoorways is immense as we are working to become the preferred platform for this universe of students and academics.”
