Margate, FL (PRWEB) June 12, 2012

Students from a variety of South Florida colleges and universities will face off on June 19 at 6:00 p.m. to determine which school produces the most knowledgeable IT experts. A live game show dubbed The Tech Factor Challenge will award $ 1,000 in cash to the top college team. The event will take place before an audience at the state-of-the-art technology campus of Saveology at 5259 Coconut Creek Parkway in Margate. A fast growing division of Saveology, MyTechHelp provides live 24/7 tech support for individuals and businesses.

Local colleges and universities who will field teams for the inaugural event include Atlantic Technical Center, ITT Tech, Keiser University, Florida Atlantic University, Florida International University and Nova Southeastern University. The colleges are encouraged to invite students to support their respective teams and to show school spirit.

The general public and the media are invited to attend the event, which is completely free and will feature a number of door prizes. At least 10 people in attendance will be randomly selected to receive year-long memberships to MyTechHelp, each valued at $ 120.00. Food and drinks will be available at deep discounts from Peroni?s Joint, a casual pizzeria and Italian grill which just opened several doors down in the Saveology Plaza and is owned by the Company.

?MyTechHelp was created to provide our customers with around the clock repair services for every electronic device they may own,? said MyTechHelp and Saveology CEO Benzion Aboud. ?We hope to attract a high-energy audience from the schools themselves, Margate and the surrounding cities and are excited to invite them into our home. Our vision is for the Saveology Plaza to serve as a catalyst for renewed growth, and the opening of Peroni?s Joint is another way that we hope to create some forward momentum and a gathering place for the Margate community.?

During The Tech Factor Challenge, a panel of expert judges will put a series of increasingly difficult questions to the college teams. During the final round, each group will be asked to solve a complex problem, giving them the chance to demonstrate their computer abilities.

?The Tech Factor Challenge is a great opportunity for us to evaluate the technical skills of young people coming out of local schools,? said Meredith Jimenez, who serves as head of corporate development for MyTechHelp and Saveology. ?We expect to hire dozens of MyTechHelp team members in the coming months, and are always on the lookout for talented individuals with deep IT knowledge and experience.?

UK Basketball Fans Get a New iPhone and iPad App Called CATALIST

(PRWEB) January 12, 2012

In a move to embrace Twitter as a breaking-news platform, Advocate Communications, Inc. released a new app in the Apple App Store this week called CATALIST UK Basketball that curates Twitter status updates from Kentucky basketball players, coaches, recruits, and their opponents to provide fans with a real-time source of insights into the mindset of the teams. The app will be managed by the team in Danville, KY who publish The Advocate-Messenger newspaper, and it will feature professional sports analysis from Larry Vaught and other sports writers at the paper. The idea for the app came out of an observation that sports writers were turning to Twitter to find out what players, coaches and recruits had to say about a team?s practice, strategies, injuries, and more.

?We see this as a Social – Local – Mobile – Professional application that takes pieces of each to follow players and understand their world. College basketball players are like celebrities, especially in Kentucky,? said Sandy Martin, Mobile Director at Schurz Communications. “The name for the app came out of that idea as well. This represents the Kentucky Wildcats’ A-List of players, so it’s the cat-a-list, or CATALIST in short.”

The fans have reacted enthusiastically to the app in its first week of release. Larry Vaught was caught off guard on the 2nd day that CATALIST was in the App Store saying, ?My Twitter blew up with comments about the app.? He was surprised by how quickly and strongly the fans reacted to the app before any formal announcement was made. Most of the comments have been recommendations that others download it, but there have been a few Android users expressing dismay that it isn’t available for them yet. Larry Vaught could relate. He also has an Android phone. His words to those fans, “It’s coming soon.”
