Me having experience dealing with cloud based tech and consulting and integration services, I realize the need for a secure and consistant cloud service. Many people are concerned with the privacy, or lack thereof, that could occur with storing personal documents into a non-physical storage unit. I can see, though with companies such as ours and Metacloud, we are working toward a more secure and easy to use cloud system for both personal and professional use. Spursh Parikh www.sererra.com

In many cases, the end of the year gives you time to step back and take stock of the last 12 months. This is when many of us take a hard look at what worked and what did not, complete performance reviews, and formulate plans for the coming year. For me, it is all of those things plus a time when I u...

Intertainment Media & Technology Partner to Bid for Poynt Assets
Group Will Re-Energize Leading Global App

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 11/27/12 -- Intertainment Media Inc. ("Intertainment" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:INT)(OTCQX:ITMTF)(FRANKFURT:I4T) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with a well funded Toronto based technology company to collectively bid for the assets of Poynt Corporation ("Poynt"). The group is prepared to enter a cash bid together with Intertainment's secured lender's position valued at CDN $1.7 Million. At this point, the deadline for submission of the bid is November 29, 2012. If the group is successful in its bid to acquire Poynt's assets, Intertainment and its partner will provide additional details on their relationship and go forward plans.

On November 1, 2012, it was announced that Hardie & Kelly Inc. of Calgary, Alberta, had been appointed receiver for Poynt Corporation after Poynt's stay of proceeds under the Proposal Proceedings under the BIA was terminated effectively creating an assignment into bankruptcy. The appointment of the receiver put in place a process to work towards recovering maximum value for the assets of Poynt.

Intertainment maintains that the Poynt application and its assets may have significant value well in excess of its secured creditor position of approximately CDN $1.7 Million plus costs and unsecured position of CDN $150,000. Based on Poynt's last reported unaudited interim financial statements released on August 29, 2012 for the period ended June 30, 2012, non-cash assets were reportedly valued in excess of CDN $21.5 Million.

On October 9, 2012, Poynt reported that its user base was in excess of 10 Million users on the Android platform alone. While an upgrade for the iPhone was recently released, on September 17, 2012, Poynt stated that year over year its unique iPhone user base had grown 132%. On July 31, 2012 Poynt reported that its overall unique user base, at that time, was 17 Million. The Poynt application is actively pre-loaded on new phones with a number of wireless carriers.

In March 2012, after Intertainment provided Poynt with a short term secured loan for CDN $1.5 Million, the parties initiated discussions and development of enhancements to the Poynt application which Intertainment expects, should they be able to be fully implemented and continue, will enhance the value of the Poynt application and create additional revenues for Intertainment and its partner. These include Intertainment's real-time experiential communications platform, Ortsbo, which offers instant communications in over 65 languages; Ad Taffy, which provides enhanced "click to call" capabilities integrating actionable content with immediate communications connectivity; Deal Frenzy which offers unique value programs to a growing audience and Intertainment's affinity solutions, including the Sweet Card, which provides pre-paid debit and virtual wallet platforms.
