Intellext Releases Free Watson 2.2 Contextual Search Application (Download Squad)

Dec 15th 2005 2:17AM Hi - this is Al from Intellext. Thank you so much for the great review - and for the group of users that have downloaded Watson as a result of your post! I'd like to address some of your user's concerns. First of all PRIVACY: Yes - Watson has amazing intelligence about what you are doing to be effective at bringing you contextually relevant information, but you will be comforted to know that we at Intellext are very serious about privacy. Watson is smart, but has no memory. Watson does not store, nor transmit any personal information. Since all the processing is done at the desktop, we at Intellext don’t get any information about you, your documents, their content, or what you do with them. This is a stark contrast to some well known products which do build a profile on you based on the searches you execute and the websites you visit. Watson is all about serving YOU. Also, as did one of your readers, some people confuse us with IntelliTXT (an offering from Vibrant Media) that does in-line advertising on content websites. The company that does the double-underlining is Kontera, with their DynamiContext product. We are Intellext (http://www.intellext.com), and our only products are Watson and Watson Professional - products that are about serving YOU. If you'd like to talk to us, please consider sending a note to feedback@intellext.com (I read every one - just put in the message "I'd like to hear from Al" and I'll respond), or chatting live with us (you can find the live chat link at the top of the page at http://www.intellext.com/contacts.html).
