Welcome to the new Simplx Blog. It is somewhat curious when I think about Simplx as a high tech company on the leading edge in many ways of pioneering new technologies and concepts, yet, we just now are getting into the seasoned technology of blogging. I will be the first to admit when I see something of value in the high tech world, even if we are slow to fully harness its advantages within our own organization, but for now I will have to rely on the old refrain, “better late than never.” We are excited to utilize the new Simplx blog as a functional tool to help us make the Simplx product better.

Here is a short list of what we are hoping to accomplish with the new Simplx Blog:

• Introduce new ideas and concepts to our customers before we develop them
• Get feedback from our customers regarding newly launched features
• Provide an open forum for discussion of Simplx.com between customers and management
• Create more transparency for the public into the internal operations of Simplx
• Communicate to customers newly added and removed merchants and changes in merchant commissions
• Give Simplx management the opportunity to speak directly to Simplx clients, resolve concerns and highlight successes

We are planning on providing fresh content on a regular basis to the new Simplx blog so in effort to be concise and not completely bore you with our first post I conclude my remarks.
